Which of the following is true concerning a SC injection :
-
A bleb indicates that the medication has been properly injected
-
Drug absorption is slower than with the IM route
-
0.2 cc of air should be drawn in the syringe before administration
-
Up to 2 cc of water-soluble medication can be given by the SC route
Correct Answer
A. Drug absorption is slower than with the IM routeExplanation
The correct answer is "drug absorption is slower than with the IM route." This is because subcutaneous (SC) injections involve injecting medication into the layer of tissue just below the skin, which has a lower blood supply compared to the muscles where intramuscular (IM) injections are administered. As a result, the medication is absorbed more slowly into the bloodstream with SC injections, leading to a slower onset of action compared to IM injections.Rate this question:

When giving medication , the label should be checked 3 times . which of the following is not one of these times ?
-
when the nurse reaches for the container
-
Immediately prior to pouring medication
-
When the nurse located the drug on the shell
-
When replacing the container to the drawer or shelf
Correct Answer
A. When the nurse located the drug on the shellExplanation
When giving medication, the label should be checked three times to ensure accuracy and patient safety. The first time is when the nurse reaches for the container, the second time is immediately prior to pouring the medication, and the third time is when replacing the container to the drawer or shelf. Checking the label when the nurse located the drug on the shelf is not one of these times, as it does not directly involve handling the medication or verifying its accuracy.Rate this question:

What body function is essential for adequate drug absorption?
-
Adequate blood supply
-
Adequate receptor sites
-
Adequate liver function
-
Adequate kidney function
Correct Answer
A. Adequate blood supplyExplanation
Adequate blood supply is essential for adequate drug absorption because it ensures that the drug reaches the target tissues and organs in the body. Blood carries the drug to the site of action, allowing it to be absorbed and distributed effectively. Without sufficient blood supply, the drug may not be able to reach its intended target, leading to reduced effectiveness or even failure of the drug therapy. Therefore, adequate blood supply plays a crucial role in ensuring proper drug absorption.Rate this question:

Mr. Adil is to receive penicillin IM . nurse hill locates the site of the injection by planning the posterior superior iliac spine & the greater trochanter . an imaginary line is drawn the posterior superior iliac spine & the greater trochanter . the injection side is lateral & slightly superior to the midpoint of the line . which of the following is correct name of the site ?
-
Dorsogluteal site
-
Rectus femoral site
-
Ventrogluteal site
-
Vastus lateralis
Correct Answer
A. Ventrogluteal siteExplanation
The correct name of the site for the injection is the ventrogluteal site. This is determined by locating the posterior superior iliac spine and the greater trochanter and drawing an imaginary line between them. The injection site is then identified as lateral and slightly superior to the midpoint of this line. The ventrogluteal site is a common and safe location for intramuscular injections, as it has a thick muscle mass and is located away from major nerves and blood vessels.Rate this question:

Which of the following is the reason for using the Z tract technique for injections ?
-
For medication of over 5cc in quantity
-
For medication that is highly irritating to subcutaneous tissue
-
For medication that stains the tissue
-
For medication that cannot be given orally
Correct Answer
A. For medication that is highly irritating to subcutaneous tissueExplanation
The Z tract technique is used for injections of medication that is highly irritating to subcutaneous tissue. This technique involves pulling the skin to one side before inserting the needle and then releasing it after the injection. This creates a zigzag path for the medication, minimizing the chances of the medication leaking back into the subcutaneous tissue and causing irritation. By using the Z tract technique, the medication can be administered safely and effectively without causing unnecessary discomfort or damage to the surrounding tissue.Rate this question:

Correct Answer
A. Ampicillin 250mg IM q12hrs x 10 daysExplanation

This order provides all the necessary information for the healthcare provider to administer the medication correctly. The other options do not include all the necessary details or are unrelated to medication administration.Rate this question:
