Priming the blood set before transfusion:

Flushes the medications in the IV line

Helps warm the cold blood into room temperature
Helps in checking the tube for possible cracks
Prevents clotting of blood in the tube

The blood bag should be diagnosed directly to the trash bin right after the end of transfusion

False

The nurse encourages the client to take slow deep breaths during a nebulization therapy. This
will ensure:
Humidification of air before entering the lungs
Correct timing of medication is followed
Fast aerosolization of the medication
Effective flow of medication into the lungs

Keeping the chest tube drainage bottle below the clients chest will
Improve the client efficacy of drainage
Prevent back flow of oxygenated blood
Inhibit disconnection of the tubing
Enhance lung expansion

Lactated ringer’s
5% dextrose in water
50% dextrose in water
0.9% sodium chloride

Chest percussion is the fine shaking pressure applied to the chest will during exhalation
True
False

The nurse can only use a padded clamp in cases of persistent or unexplained air leaks in the
chest tube
True

After taking a shower
Before sleeping
Night after meals

the blood request form should contain the following data except
presence of sediments and bubbles
blood type of the recipient
expiration due to the blood product
name of physician requesting the blood

pursed-lip breathing opens the airways during exhalation to increase excretion of oxygen

the client’s reaction at the first 15 minutes of blood transfusion in considered vital as this
helps the nurse maintain the safety in the transfusion before proceeding to infuse the whole
unit
gives the nurse a venue for assessing the other concerns of the client
provides the nurse some cues in the use of blood pump
signals the starts of an invasive treatment

cupped

closed

antihistamines are discouraged right before administering blood and its products. This is
because these medications
dilute the blood
mask or delay transfusion-related reactions
may alter the flow of blood in the transfusion set
may increase the concentration of blood

the initial nursing action to blood transfusion reactions is to

call for a code 99 and get the emergency cart
stop the transfusion and open the mainline IV
call the physician and then stop the transfusion
stop the transfusion and call the physician

a routine test used to determine if the donor’s blood is compatible with the blood of an
intended recipient
