Extract:
Question 1 of 5
The LPN is caring for all of the following women on the postpartum unit. Which situation requires further attention?
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: A fundus 3 cm above the umbilicus 12 hours postpartum suggests uterine atony or retained clots, requiring further assessment to prevent hemorrhage. Other findings are normal or less urgent.
Question 2 of 5
The nurse in the outpatient care facility is caring for a client with metastatic lung cancer who received chemotherapy 3 days ago. The client states, 'I have decided that I do not want to continue treatment.' Which of the following responses would be appropriate for the nurse to make?
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: Acknowledging the decision’s difficulty and notifying the provider respects autonomy and ensures follow-up. Other responses judge, guilt, or deflect the client’s choice.
Question 3 of 5
Because an adult is scheduled for a cystoscopy, the nurse should plan to do which of the following immediately prior to the procedure?
Correct Answer: C
Rationale: Cystoscopy may involve iodine-based contrast; shellfish allergies suggest iodine sensitivity, requiring verification. NPO is not needed, claustrophobia is irrelevant, and fluids are not prioritized immediately before.
