Question 1 of 5
A nurse is reinforcing teaching with a client who has atelectasis. The nurse tells the client how to position herself to promote drainage of the apical lung segments. Which of the following statements by the client should the nurse identify as understanding of the teaching?
Correct Answer: D
Rationale: Prone positioning with pillows under the chest promotes postural drainage of apical lung segments. Other positions are ineffective.
Question 2 of 5
A nurse is collecting data from a client. Which of the following findings should the nurse report to the charge nurse as an indicator of dehydration?
Correct Answer: C
Rationale: Skin tenting is a hallmark sign of dehydration due to decreased skin elasticity. Jugular vein distention and high BP indicate fluid overload.
Question 3 of 5
A nurse is collecting data from a client about pitting edema and notes an indentation of 6 mm (0.25 in) at the point of pressure. Which of the following numbers should the nurse document to indicate the intensity of the client's edema?
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: A 6-mm indentation corresponds to 3+ pitting edema, indicating moderate to severe fluid retention.
Question 4 of 5
A nurse is caring for a client who is receiving oxygen at 2 L/min via a nasal cannula. From this information, the nurse should identify that the client is receiving which of the following oxygen concentrations?
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: A nasal cannula at 2 L/min delivers approximately 28% oxygen concentration. Higher values correspond to mask or higher flow rates.
Question 5 of 5
A nurse is caring for a client who has pneumonia and has been receiving oxygen therapy for several days. When collecting data from the client, the nurse should identify which of the following findings as an indication of an adverse effect of oxygen therapy?
Correct Answer: C
Rationale: Tachycardia can indicate oxygen toxicity. Other symptoms include confusion and restlessness. Pulmonary secretions are expected in pneumonia, not a sign of toxicity.
