cramps and small muscle contractions are common side effects and occur as a result of overstimulation
of neuromuscular receptors.

action should the nurse take?
A) Prepare for defibrillation
B) Continue to monitor the rhythm
C) Notify the HCP
D) Prepare to administer lidocaine hydrochloride - (answer)B) Continue to monitor the rhythm

mild hypoxemia through hyperventiliation. Cyanosis and pallor are usually late signs of severe

milk
Rationale: the meal with the best potential to promote wound healing includes nutrient-rich food
choices including protein, such as chicken and milk, and vitamin c, such as strawberries and broccoli. The
remaining food options include one or more items with low nutritional value, especially the jell-o, tea,
jelly, and ginger ale.
An adult client arrives in the emergency department with burns to both entire legs and the perineal
area. Using the rule of nines, the nurse could determine that approximately what percentage of the
