1.A policy requiring the removal of acrylic nails by all nursing personnel was implemented 6 months ago. Which assessment measure best determines if the intended outcome of the policy is being achieved?
a.Number of staff induced injury
b.Client satisfaction survey
c.Health care-associated infection rate.
d.Rate of needle-stick injuries by nurse.
Acrylic nails are known to carry loads of bacteria and increase the risk of healthcare-associated infections. Therefore, by banning the wearing of acrylic nails, you would expect the prevalence of healthcare-associated infections to decrease. Acrylic nails have nothing to do with staff induced injuries, needle-stick injuries, or patient satisfaction scores.
2.Which assessment data would provide the most accurate determination of proper placement of a nasogastric tube?
A)Aspirating gastric contents to assure a pH value of 4 or less.
This is a method used to determine proper placement of NG tubing, but not the most accurate.
B)Hearing air pass in the stomach after injecting air into the tubing.
This is a method used to determine proper placement of NG tubing, but not the most accurate.
C)Examining a chest x-ray obtained after the tubing was inserted.
After placing an NG-tube, the placement of the tube is confirmed via x-ray since it is the most accurate way to ensure the tube has not been placed in the lungs, which would pose an aspiration risk.
D)Checking the remaining length of tubing to ensure that the correct length was inserted. This is not an indicator of proper placement. You could very well be in a lung.

Online kun je studenten helpen met notities en samenvattingen terwijl je niet meer echt naar je samenvatting hoeft om te kijken. Het past goed bij je studie en je kunt tegelijk wat bijverdienen!
Je spaart enorm veel tijd uit door gebruik te maken van deze samenvattingen!
Soms koop ik meerdere samenvattingen over 1 boek. Dit helpt mij als ik onvoldoende tijd heb om het hele boek te lezen en zelf geen samenvatting kan maken.
Knoowy is heel handig om te gebruiken. Zeker aan te raden.
Juiste plek voor een goeie voorbereiding op je komende toets.
Super handig, echt een goeie site. Ik ga dit in de toekomst vaker gebruiken!
Knoowy is voor mij de perfecte service om een centje bij te verdienen! Die samenvattingen moet ik sowieso maken, dus waarom ze niet uploaden en wat bijverdienen?
Betrouwbare website. Ik zet er zelf ook samenvattingen op en ik koop er ook.
