Answer:

The nurse should be aware of any kind of side effects of acetaminophen and its dosages before administering other medicines to the patient.

Explanation:

It is the duty of a nurse to be aware of patient’s medical history or record before giving them any medication. Acetaminophen is usually given for moderate fever and pain and doesn’t cause any side effects in general.

However, a nurse after administering it, should make sure that the patient didn’t have any side effects after taking the medicine or he/she has been given the needed dose of acetaminophen before giving any further medication to that patient.

Common behaviors that are a result of Alzheimer's disease are
Liula [17]

Answer:

angry outbursts and physical aggression, hand wringing pacing and rocking, accusing loved ones of wrong doing and hallucinating, repeating stories and leaving the house unassisted, sleep problems and sundowing

Explanation:

1, Verbal or physical aggression, which can be quite alarming, is common in patients with Alzheimer’s.

2, Dementia makes it very difficult to process stimuli and new information, causing many people with Alzheimer’s disease to become anxious. 

3, Caregivers may feel at a loss when an Alzheimer’s patient exhibits behavior that is clearly not grounded in reality: either hallucinations—perceiving something that isn’t really there—or delusions, which are false beliefs that can lead to paranoia.

4, The memory problems caused by Alzheimer’s disease can lead to a range of distressing behaviors, including repetition of words or activities, disorientation even in familiar places, and, in severe cases, confusion about the passage of time.

5, It’s not well understood why sleep disturbances occur in many Alzheimer’s patients, but it’s common for them to experience nighttime restlessness and changes to their sleep schedule.

DiKsa [7]

Radioimmunoassay is a test that the nurse expects the physician to order to check thyroid hormones.

The thyroid gland is an important hormone gland that regulates metabolism, growth, and development in the human body. It aids in the regulation of various physiological functions by continuously releasing a consistent amount of thyroid hormones into the bloodstream.

The thyroid gland generates hormones that control the metabolic rate of the body, as well as heart, muscle, and digestive function, brain growth, and bone maintenance.

The most frequent thyroid issues include aberrant thyroid hormone production. Hyperthyroidism is a condition caused by an excess of thyroid hormone. Hypothyroidism is caused by insufficient hormone production.
