Extract:


Question 1 of 5

The nurse is assessing for jaundice in a client who has dark skin. What is the best way to do this?

Correct Answer: B

Rationale: The sclera (white of the eyes) reliably shows yellowing in jaundice, even in dark skin, unlike stool color, nail beds, or fingers, which are less specific.

Question 2 of 5

The nurse is reinforcing instructions to a postpartum client about cord care for the newborn. Which client statement indicates a need for further teaching?

Correct Answer: D

Rationale: Securing the diaper over the cord traps moisture, increasing infection risk. The cord turning black, falling off naturally, and sponge baths are correct cord care practices.

Question 3 of 5

The nurse is talking with a client recently diagnosed with HIV infection about home and lifestyle alterations. Which of the following statements indicate that the client correctly understands the teaching? Select all that apply.

Correct Answer: A,B,D

Rationale: Avoiding raw foods, not sharing razors, and using latex-free condoms reduce infection and transmission risks. Barrier methods are still needed with HIV-positive partners to prevent superinfection.

Question 4 of 5

The nurse is reinforcing instructions to a client receiving oxybutynin for overactive bladder. Which client statement indicates that further teaching is required?

Correct Answer: A

Rationale: Planning a beach vacation suggests unawareness of oxybutynin’s heat intolerance side effect, increasing dehydration risk. Preventing constipation, avoiding driving, and adequate hydration are correct.

Question 5 of 5

The nurse in the mental health unit is observing staff members communicating with assigned clients. Which of the following statements by a staff member to a client would require the nurse to intervene?

Correct Answer: D

Rationale: Asking 'why' can seem judgmental and provoke defensiveness, hindering therapeutic communication. Seeking clarification, acknowledging beliefs, and inviting elaboration are appropriate and supportive.
