ATI NCLEX-PN Practice Questions Questions
Extract:
Question 1 of 5
The client has a fractured right tibia. Which assessment data warrant immediate intervention?
Correct Answer: C
Rationale: A cold foot suggests vascular compromise (e.g., compartment syndrome), requiring immediate intervention to prevent tissue damage.
Question 2 of 5
Which diagnostic test should the nurse expect to be ordered for the client who has a nevus which is purple and brown with irregular borders?
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: A suspicious nevus with irregular borders requires a skin biopsy to rule out melanoma, the standard diagnostic test.
Question 3 of 5
Which action by the unlicensed assistive personnel (UAP) requires intervention by the nurse?
Correct Answer: D
Rationale: Wiping back to front risks UTI, requiring intervention; other actions are appropriate.
Question 4 of 5
The client approaches the nurse about a weight-loss program. Which complementary therapy should the nurse suggest to assist the client's plan?
Correct Answer: C
Rationale: Hatha yoga promotes physical activity and mindfulness, supporting weight loss. Music therapy, hypnotherapy, and Alexander technique are less directly linked to weight management.
Question 5 of 5
The nurse assessing an elderly client diagnosed with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease notes purple, round, nontender areas on the client's back. Which question should the nurse ask the client?
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: Purple, round marks suggest cupping, a traditional therapy for respiratory issues, common in some cultures. Bruising, abuse, or client causation are less likely without evidence.
