ATI NCLEX-PN Practice Questions Questions
Extract:
Question 1 of 5
The nurse at the Family Planning Clinic is preparing a discussion for students attending a community college about contraception and methods to prevent pregnancy. Which information should the nurse include in the presentation?
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: Condoms prevent STDs, a key public health message for students. Annual exams are recommended but secondary, hormonal delivery methods are specific, and not all contraception requires prescriptions (e.g., condoms).
Question 2 of 5
The client diagnosed with a transient ischemic attack (TIA) is being discharged from the hospital. Which medication should the nurse expect the HCP to prescribe?
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: Aspirin prevents platelet aggregation, reducing stroke risk post-TIA, per AHA guidelines.
Question 3 of 5
The nurse is administering 250 mL of packed red blood cells with 50 mL of preservative. The client has no jugular vein distention and has clear breath sounds. After the first 15 minutes, at what rate should the nurse set the IV infusion pump?
Correct Answer: 75
Rationale:
Total volume: 250 mL + 50 mL = 300 mL. Infuse over 4 hours (standard): 300 mL / 4 hr = 75 mL/hr.
Question 4 of 5
Which psychosocial client problem should the nurse write for the client diagnosed with cancer of the lung and metastasis to the brain?
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: Grieving is the priority psychosocial problem in terminal cancer with metastasis, per Kübler-Ross.
Question 5 of 5
Which expected outcome should be included in the plan of care for a postoperative client practicing guided imagery?
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: Guided imagery reduces pain perception, so a decreased pain score is the expected outcome. WBC count, urine output, and dressing drainage are unrelated.
