Answer to Question 1

Correct Answer: 3
The condom catheter fits over the penis and reduces skin contact with urine by diverting the urine to a collection bag. It is not invasive, and can be applied as a nursing order. The Robinson catheter is a specific type of straight catheter that requires a health care provider's order. A Foley catheter is an indwelling catheter that requires a health care provider's order. Use of both the indwelling catheter and the straight catheter are invasive procedures.

Answer to Question 2

Correct Answer: 2

Dextrose concentrations greater than 10 must be given centrally because of the risk of phlebitis at higher concentrations. Lipids may be given peripherally as well as centrally. Clients requiring long-term parenteral nutrition generally receive it centrally. Parenteral nutrition can meet caloric needs, but should be started gradually and increased slowly to prevent hyperglycemia.

Every flu season is different, and even healthy people can get extremely sick from the flu, as well as spread it to others. The flu season can begin as early as October and last as late as May. Every person over six months of age should get an annual flu vaccine. The vaccine cannot cause you to get influenza, but in some seasons, may not be completely able to prevent you from acquiring influenza due to changes in causative viruses. The viruses in the flu shot are killed—there is no way they can give you the flu. Minor side effects include soreness, redness, or swelling where the shot was given. It is possible to develop a slight fever, and body aches, but these are simply signs that the body is responding to the vaccine and making itself ready to fight off the influenza virus should you come in contact with it.
