NCLEX Trainer Test 5 Questions

Extract:


Question 1 of 5

An adult who has chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is receiving oxygen at home via nasal cannula. In addition to instructing the client and his family about not smoking when oxygen is in use, what should the nurse plan to include in the teaching?

Correct Answer: B

Rationale: Shuffling across carpet generates static electricity, risking sparks near oxygen, which is a fire hazard. Adjusting oxygen flow without medical orders or cleaning with alcohol (instead of soap and water) is unsafe.

Question 2 of 5

An African-American client is admitted with full thickness burns over 40% of his body. In addition to the CBC and complete metabolic panel, the physician is likely to request which additional lab work?

Correct Answer: D

Rationale: Sickle cell anemia and sickle cell trait are more prevalent in African American clients. The Sickledex test detects the presence of sickle cell anemia and sickle cell trait. Trauma can trigger a sickle cell crisis, which would complicate the treatment of the client. Answers A and C indicate inflammation, so they are incorrect. Answer B is incorrect because it detects circulating antibodies against RBCs.

Question 3 of 5

The nurse is caring for a client with a history of type 2 diabetes who is receiving sitagliptin (Januvia) 100 mg PO daily. Which of the following symptoms should the nurse report immediately?

Correct Answer: B

Rationale: Upper abdominal pain may indicate pancreatitis, a serious sitagliptin side effect. Options A, C, and D are less urgent.

Question 4 of 5

The home care nurse is instructing a client recently diagnosed with tuberculosis.

Correct Answer: D

Rationale: Adherence to a 6-9 month medication regimen is critical to cure tuberculosis and prevent drug resistance. While respiratory precautions, family support, and masks are important, long-term medication compliance is the most essential for treatment success.

Question 5 of 5

The nurse is assessing the nursing care unit in a long-term facility for fire hazards. Which finding is the greatest fire hazard?

Correct Answer: B

Rationale: Storing flammable materials near oxygen increases fire risk, as oxygen supports combustion. Smoking, dust, or cluttered closets are less hazardous.
