A patient is considered a neonate if he or she is
 
  a. less than 37 weeks of gestational age.
  b. in the first month of postnatal life.
  c. 12 to 18 years.
  d. 1 to 12 months.
  e. 1 to 12 years.

Question 2

You enter the room of a 15-month-old patient with respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) infection to deliver racemic epinephrine via small volume nebulizer (SVN). His mother asks you if it is okay for her to give her child the breathing treatment.
 
  Because your hospital policy allows this, you agree. During the treatment you notice that the patient's mother is holding the aerosol mask about 4 cm off of his face. You tell her
  a. Good idea  he seems much calmer this way.
  b. Maybe we should try blow-by instead.
  c. I'll be back later  it's my lunchtime.
  d. We need to hold the mask as close to his face as we possibly can to make sure he gets his medicine.

Did you know?

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.
