C) Hemoglobin and hematocrit v v
D) Platelet count v
Answer: A) Prothrombin time (PT) v v v v
Rationale: Warfarin therapy is monitored by the PT and the International Normalized Ratio (INR),

6. Respiratory System v
A nurse is caring for a client with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) who has a low
v v v v v v v v v v v v v v v v

v v v v v v v v v v v v
A) Administer high-flow oxygen to improve oxygen saturation v v v v v v
B) Increase the client's fluid intake to thin secretions v v v v v v v
C) Apply oxygen via nasal cannula and monitor for improvement

respiratory drive. Low-flow oxygen via nasal cannula is preferred, and the nurse should monitor
v v v v v v v v v v v v v v
oxygen saturation.
