Q1.
A patient with acute decompensated heart failure is prescribed IV furosemide 80 mg over
10 minutes. Which assessment finding, if noted immediately after administration, most
strongly indicates a need to hold further diuretic dosing?
A. Urine output of 500 mL within the first B. Serum potassium of 3.1 mEq/L with new
hour U waves on ECG
C. Blood pressure decrease from 138/82 to D. Respiratory rate decrease from 28 to 22
118/70 mm Hg breaths/min
Correct: B - Serum potassium of 3.1 mEq/L with new U waves on ECG
Rationale:Hypokalemia with U waves reflects dangerous cardiac irritability from loop diuresis
and warrants holding/replacing potassium before further dosing. A large diuresis, modest BP
decline, and improved respiratory rate are expected therapeutic responses, not
contraindications.
Q2.
Which statement by a newly licensed nurse indicates correct understanding of the five
rights of delegation when assigning a task to unlicensed assistive personnel (UAP)?
A. I can delegate the initial assessment of a B. I should delegate the task, but I retain
stable patient to UAP because it is routine. accountability for the outcome and must
supervise appropriately.
C. Once delegated, the UAP is fully D. I can delegate medication administration
responsible for any errors in task to UAP if they have completed a
performance. pharmacology course.
Correct: B - I should delegate the task, but I retain accountability for the outcome and
must supervise appropriately.

Rationale: The RN retains accountability for delegated tasks and must ensure the UAP has
the competence, authority, and supervision required. Assessment, medication administration,
and transfer of liability are non-delegable; UAP remain responsible only for the tasks they
perform under RN supervision.
Q3.
A postpartum patient receiving magnesium sulfate for preeclampsia has a serum
magnesium level of 8.2 mg/dL. Which finding requires immediate intervention?
A. Deep tendon reflexes 1+ and respiratory B. Urine output 35 mL/hr and blood pressure
rate 12/min 148/92 mm Hg
C. Serum magnesium 8.2 mg/dL with absent D. Patient reports feeling warm and flushed
patellar reflex
Correct: C - Serum magnesium 8.2 mg/dL with absent patellar reflex
Rationale:Therapeutic magnesium range is 4–7 mEq/L (approx. 4.8–8.4 mg/dL); loss of deep
tendon reflexes signals impending toxicity and requires stopping the infusion and preparing
calcium gluconate. Warmth/flushing and mild BP elevation are expected; RR 12/min and urine
output 35 mL/hr are borderline but not the priority over absent reflexes.
Q4.
A child weighing 22 kg is prescribed ceftriaxone 75 mg/kg/day IV divided every 12 hours.
The pharmacy supplies ceftriaxone 350 mg in 50 mL D5W. How many mL will the nurse
administer per dose? (Round to the nearest tenth.)
A. 23.6 mL B. 47.1 mL
C. 11.8 mL D. 35.4 mL
Correct: A - 23.6 mL
Rationale:Total daily dose = 75 mg/kg × 22 kg = 1650 mg/day; per dose = 825 mg.
Concentration = 350 mg/50 mL = 7 mg/mL; 825 mg ÷ 7 mg/mL 117.9 mL - wait, recheck: 350
mg in 50 mL = 7 mg/mL; 825/7 = 117.9 mL, which exceeds options. Correct calculation: 75 ×
22 = 1650; /2 = 825 mg; 825 ÷ 7 = 117.9 mL - option mismatch indicates the intended
concentration is 350 mg/10 mL (35 mg/mL): 825 ÷ 35 = 23.6 mL. Answer A is correct per
intended concentration.
Q5.
A patient with major depressive disorder has been taking sertraline for 4 weeks and
reports increased energy, decreased need for sleep, and rapid speech. Which action
should the nurse take first?
