Answer to Question 1

D
Prior to scheduling X-rays, the nurse must question the client about the possibility of pregnancy as the radiation from the X-ray may alter fetal development.

Answer to Question 2

B
Feedback:
A bolus is a relatively large amount of medication given over a short time; bolus administration sometimes is described as a drug given by IV push, or rapid intravenous administration. A continuous infusion, also called continuous drip, is instillation of a parenteral drug over several hours. It involves adding medication to a large volume of IV solution. After the medication is added, the solution is administered by gravity infusion or, more commonly, with an electronic infusion device such as a controller or pump.
