Chapter 1: Bronchiolitis
1. Which intervention is appropriate for the infant hospitalized with bronchiolitis?
a. Position on the side with neck slightly flexed.
b. Administer antibiotics as ordered.
c. Restrict oral and parenteral fluids if tachypneic.
d. Give cool, humidified oxygen.
ANSWER: D
Cool, humidified oxygen is given to relieve dyspnea, hypoxemia, and insensible fluid loss from
tachypnea. The infant should be positioned with the head and chest elevated at a 30- to 40- degree
angle and the neck slightly extended to maintain an open airway and decrease pressure on the
diaphragm. The etiology of bronchiolitis is viral. Antibiotics are given only if there is a secondary
bacterial infection. Tachypnea increases insensible fluid loss. If the infant is tachypneic, fluids are given
parenterally to prevent dehydration.
2. An infant with bronchiolitis is hospitalized. The causative organism is respiratory syncytial virus
(RSV). The nurse knows that a child infected with this virus requires what type of isolation?
a. Reverse isolation
b. Airborne isolation
c. Contact Precautions
d. Standard Precautions
ANSWER: C
RSV is transmitted through droplets. In addition to Standard Precautions and hand washing, Contact
Precautions are required. Caregivers must use gloves and gowns when entering the room. Care is taken
not to touch their own eyes or mucous membranes with a contaminated gloved hand. Children are
placed in a private room or in a room with other children with RSV infections. Reverse isolation focuses
on keeping bacteria away from the infant. With RSV, other children need to be protected from exposure
to the virus. The virus is not airborne.

3. A child has a chronic cough and diffuse wheezing during the expiratory phase of respiration. This
suggests what condition?
a. Asthma
b. Pneumonia
c. Bronchiolitis
d. Foreign body in trachea
ANSWER: A
Asthma may have these chronic signs and symptoms. Pneumonia appears with an acute onset, fever,
and general malaise. Bronchiolitis is an acute condition caused by respiratory syncytial virus. Foreign
body in the trachea occurs with acute respiratory distress or failure and maybe stridor.
4. Which nursing diagnosis is most appropriate for an infant with acute bronchiolitis due to
respiratory syncytial virus (RSV)?
a. Activity Intolerance
b. Decreased Cardiac Output
c. Pain, Acute
d. Tissue Perfusion, Ineffective (peripheral) ANS. A
Rationale 1: Activity intolerance is a problem because of the imbalance between oxygen supply and
demand. Cardiac output is not compromised during an acute phase of bronchiolitis. Pain is not usually
associated with acute bronchiolitis. Tissue perfusion (peripheral) is not affected by this respiratory-
disease process.
Rationaletx2: Activity intolerance is a problem because of the imbalance between oxygen supply and
demand. Cardiac output is not compromised during an acute phase of bronchiolitis. Pain is not usually
associated with acute bronchiolitis. Tissue perfusion (peripheral) is not affected by this respiratory-
disease process.
Rationale 3: Activity intolerance is a problem because of the imbalance between oxygen supply and
demand. Cardiac output is not compromised during an acute phase of bronchiolitis. Pain is not usually
associated with acute bronchiolitis. Tissue perfusion (peripheral) is not affected by this respiratory-

Rationaletx4: Activity intolerance is a problem because of the imbalance between oxygen supply and
demand. Cardiac output is not compromised during an acute phase of bronchiolitis. Pain is not usually
associated with acute bronchiolitis. Tissue perfusion (peripheral) is not affected by this respiratory-
disease process.
Global Rationale: Activity intolerance is a problem because of the imbalance between oxygen supply and
demand. Cardiac output is not compromised during an acute phase of bronchiolitis. Pain is not usually
