A nurse is caring for a client who has a new diagnosis of tuberculosis (TB). The client asks the
nurse why she needs to take four different antituberculosis medications. Which of the
following replies should the nurse make?
-"The organism that causes TB becomes resistant to antituberculosis medications when you
only take one medication."
-"People who have a severe form of TB need several antituberculosis medications, but those
who have less severe TB need just one medication.
-"Adverse effects occur more often and are more severe when you take only one
antituberculosis medication.
-"Taking several antituberculosis medications will protect your liver from toxic effects." –
Correct Answer :-"The organism that causes TB becomes resistant to antituberculosis
medications when you only take one medication."
Rationale:
The nurse should reply that the organism that causes TB becomes resistant to
antituberculosis medications when you only take one medication. This is the correct answer
because TB is caused by a slow-growing bacteria that can develop resistance to single drugs.
Therefore, a combination of drugs is needed to prevent or treat drug-resistant TB. The other
options are incorrect or misleading

A nurse is assisting with the care of a client who has a closed-chest tube drainage system.
Which of the following actions should the nurse take?
a) Replace the unit when the drainage chamber is full.
b) Clamp the tube for 30 min every 8 hr.
c) Pin the tubing to the client's bed sheets.
d) Monitor for at least 150 mL of drainage every hour. - Correct Answer :A. Replace the unit
when the drainage chamber is full.
Rationale:
Pinning the tube can cause tension or pulling, which can lead to dislodgement of the tube or
tension pneumothorax
Clamping the tube for 30 mins every 8 hrs can lead to build up pressure in the pleural space,
which can cause lung collapse or tension pneumothorax
Monitor for at least 150 mL is incorrect because the nurse should monitor for the amount
and character of drainage, but there is no specific amount that must be monitor hourly.
A nurse is collecting data from a client who is 2 days postoperative following a colon
restriction. Which of the following indicates the need for nursing intervention?
