NCLEX PN Practice Tests Questions
Extract:
Question 1 of 5
The nurse is discussing activities to promote language development with the parent of a 2-year-old. Which statement by the parent requires follow-up?
Correct Answer: D
Rationale: Enrolling a 2-year-old in soccer is premature, as it does not directly promote language development and is not age-appropriate. Reading rhyming books and facilitating peer play with toys support language skills.
Question 2 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 3 of 5
The nurse is caring for a postoperative client who is unresponsive to painful stimuli and is given naloxone. Within 5 minutes, the client can be roused and responds to verbal commands. One hour later, the client is again difficult to rouse, with minimal response to physical stimuli. Which actions does the nurse anticipate? Select all that apply.
Correct Answer: A,B,E
Rationale: Recurrent unresponsiveness suggests opioid re-narcotization, requiring oxygen, a second naloxone dose, and respiratory monitoring. Discontinuing pain medication is premature, and rapid response is not yet indicated.
Question 4 of 5
A client with aortic stenosis is scheduled for surgery in 2 weeks. The client reports episodes of angina and passing out twice at home. Which would be the best response by the nurse to explain the appropriate activity for this client at this time?
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: Strenuous activity risks syncope or ischemia in aortic stenosis, so avoidance is critical. Exercise despite angina is dangerous, short walks may still trigger symptoms, and no restrictions ignore risks.
Question 5 of 5
The nurse is assisting at a disaster shelter setup following a devastating earthquake. What is the most common problem the nurse is likely to see in those who come to the shelter?
Correct Answer: C
Rationale: Stress is the most common issue post-disaster due to trauma and displacement, affecting most survivors. Thirst, injuries, or medical exacerbations are less universal.
