A mother says she does not want her 6-month-old to get routine immunizations because he has a cold. The nurse responds based on the knowledge that:
 
  a. Upper respiratory infections can be complicated by an immunization
  b. The regular immunization of HIB will be delayed, but the DTaP will be given
  c. The common cold is not a sufficient reason to delay immunization
  d. The immunization can be given if the child is given a dose of immunoglobulin

Question 2

A newborn with a diagnosis of Tetrology of Fallot is demonstrating heart failure. The doctor orders a prostaglandin E1 drip. The nurse knows this is used to:
 
  1. Maintain blood flow to the lungs.
   2. Open the patent foramen ovale.
   3. Increase blood flow to the extremities.
   4. Decrease resistance of blood flow through the heart.

Answer to Question 1

C
A common cold is not a sufficient reason to delay immunization.

Answer to Question 2

1
Feedback
1. The prostaglandin will allow the Patent Ductus Arteriosis to have patency.
2. The patent foramen ovale is already open when a Tetrology of Fallot is present.
3. Blood flow to the heart and lungs rather than the extremities is the priority.
4. Because of the holes in the heart, the resistance is already low.
