A 7-year-old boy is hospitalized with cystic fibrosis. To help him manage secretions and avoid respiratory distress, the nurse should ().
A.perform chest physiotherapy every 4 hours.
B.give pancreatic enzymes as ordered.
C.place the child in an oxygen tent and have oxygen administered continuously.
D.serve a high-calorie diet.
参考答案:A
解析:
Chest physiotherapy aids in loosening secretions in the entire respiratory tract. Pancreatic enzymes aid in the absorption of necessary nutrients--not in managing secretions. Oxygen therapy doesn't aid in loosening secretions and can cause carbon dioxide retention and respiratory distress in children with cystic fibrosis. A high-calorie diet is appropriate but doesn't facilitate respiratory effort.
