Answer to Question 1

A
A. A dyspneic client may require assessment and intervention during transfer and should be accompanied by a registered nurse.
B, C, and D. Transfer of a dyspneic client should not be delegated.

Answer to Question 2

D
When the cycles are completed, the mouthpiece is removed and 1 to 2 forceful exhalations and huff coughs are performed. If aerosol drug therapy is ordered, a nebulizer is attached to the end of the Acapella device. For the initial setting, the frequency adjustment dial should be set at the lowest resistance setting. The cycle should be repeated for 5 to 10 breaths as tolerated.
