Answer to Question 1

D

Feedback
A Urine output of 160 ml in 4 hours is a normal finding.
B Deep tendon reflexes of 2+ with no clonus is a normal finding.
C Respiratory rate of 16 breaths/min is a normal finding.
D The therapeutic range for magnesium sulfate management is 5 to 8 mg/dl. A se-rum magnesium level of 10 mg/dl could lead to signs and symptoms of magne-sium toxicity, including oliguria and respiratory distress.

Answer to Question 2

C
Feedback
A Picking a toddler up at an initial meeting is a threatening action and will more
likely result in a negative response from the child.
B Toddlers are unlikely to respond to direct questions at a first meeting.
C More positive interactions occur when the toddler perceives the meeting in a
nonthreatening way. Placing yourself at the toddler's level and speaking softly
can be less threatening for the child.
D Telling the toddler you are the nurse is not likely to facilitate or encourage
cooperation. The toddler perceives you as a stranger and will find the action
threatening.
