Answer to Question 1

B
Feedback:
Drugs that produce systemic effects are taken into the body, circulated through the bloodstream to their sites of action in various body tissues, and eventually eliminated from the body. Curative agents are given to cure a disease process. In this case, paroxetine hydrochloride will control the symptoms but not cure the disorder. Drugs with local effects, such as sunscreen and local anesthetics, act mainly at the site of application. Paroxetine hydrochloride is not administered parenterally. Parenteral agents are administered subcutaneously, intramuscularly, or intravenously.

Answer to Question 2

D
D. When CVC completely removed, apply firm pressure on IV site. Pressure on IV site assists in clot formation. Clients who have been on anticoagulant therapy may require 5 minutes of pressure.
A. Don gloves and personal protective equipment.
B. The nurse cannot raise the tip. The tip is within the central vein.
C. Have client perform Valsalva maneuver as you slowly and steadily remove CVC. Promotes negative intrathoracic pressure thus reducing the risk of introduction of air into the venous system.
