Question 1 of 5
Select the member of the multidisciplinary team that you would most likely collaborate with when the client can benefit from the use of adaptive devices for cutting food?
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: An occupational therapist specializes in helping clients use adaptive devices to perform activities of daily living, such as cutting food, making them the most appropriate team member for this need.
Question 2 of 5
A client with a history of chronic kidney disease is admitted with anemia. The nurse should expect to administer which of the following medications?
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: Epoetin alfa stimulates red blood cell production in chronic kidney disease-related anemia.
Question 3 of 5
A client returning from the postanesthesia care unit after transurethral resection of the prostate (TURP) has bladder irrigation running via a 3-way Foley catheter. The nurse should notify the primary health care provider if which color of urine is noted in the urinary drainage bag?
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: Bright red bleeding should be reported because it could indicate complications related to active bleeding. If the bladder irrigation is infusing at a sufficient rate, the urinary drainage will be pale pink. A dark pink color (sometimes referred to as punch-colored) indicates that the speed of the irrigation should be increased. Tea-colored urine is not seen after TURP but may be noted in the client with renal failure or other renal disorders.

Question 5 of 5
Which of the following nursing diagnoses should the nurse implement as part of the long-term care for a child with hemophilia?
Correct Answer: B
