Question 1 of 5

An adult has started on continuous ambulatory peritoneal dialysis. Which nursing instruction is of highest priority?

Correct Answer: B

Rationale: Aseptic technique is critical in peritoneal dialysis to prevent peritonitis, a serious complication. Understanding dialysis mechanics, withholding drugs, or diet are secondary.

Question 2 of 5

The emergency room nurse admits a child who experienced a seizure at school. The parent comments that this is the first occurrence and denies any family history of epilepsy. What is the best response by the nurse?

Correct Answer: B

Rationale: The seizure may or may not mean your child has epilepsy. A single seizure has multiple potential causes, not necessarily epilepsy.

Question 4 of 5

Correct Answer: C

Rationale: A withdrawn client may be overwhelmed by detailed explanations. Brief information and quiet presence build trust and reduce anxiety.

Question 5 of 5

The nurse is floated from the obstetrical (OB) floor to the medical/surgical floor. Which client is the best assignment for the OB nurse?

D) require general medical-surgical care unrelated to OB.
