E.'Oral hygiene, such as gum massage and tooth brushing, is important to combat the gingival hyperplasia that some anticonvulsant medication can cause.'

A,B,C,D,E Rationale When initiating anticonvulsant medication, it is important to maintain consistent levels of the medication, so the patient would take it at the same time every day and with meals for absorption. It is important not to drive or perform any hazardous activities as new medications can cause drowsiness. There is some evidence that caffeinated and alcoholic beverages lower seizure threshold. Adding a multivitamin supplement is recommended, especially if the anticonvulsant is the kind that interferes with absorption. Frequent dental examinations and good oral hygiene are the first line of defense against the gingival hyperplasia caused by some anticonvulsants.

C, D Rationale Skipping doses of the medication is a form of denial that an adolescent client may engage in once the seizures are controlled; also, adolescents tend to feel invincible. The dosage is based not on activity but on the type of seizure. Medications are prescribed according to the type of seizure and are effective if taken consistently.

1) A client is admitted to the emergency department after experiencing a seizure. Which action would the nurse take first? Ask the emergency provider for a prophylactic anticonvulsant. Obtain a history of seizure type and incidence. Ask the client to remove any dentures and eyeglasses. Observe the client for increased restlessness and agitation.

Obtain a history of seizure type and incidence. Data collection is an essential first step for a client with a seizure disorder; it should always include a history of the seizures (e.g., type and incidence). Because different seizure medicines are used to control different seizure types, it is important to determine the type before treating. Although dentures and eyeglasses may be removed during a seizure, the client's normal routines should be respected. Increased restlessness may be evidence of the prodromal phase of a seizure in some individuals, but signs and symptoms vary so widely that the client's history should be obtained.

Monitor vital signs every 15 minutes. D. Prepare a setup for a central venous pressure (CVP) line.
