NCLEX Trainer Test 5 Questions

Extract:


Question 1 of 5

The nurse is performing discharge teaching for a client with Addison’s disease.

Correct Answer: D

Rationale: Steroid replacement is critical for Addison’s disease to manage adrenal insufficiency and prevent life-threatening crises. Infection, fluid balance, and seizures are secondary concerns compared to ensuring steroid therapy adherence.

Question 2 of 5

The nurse is caring for a client with a history of pancreatitis.

Correct Answer: B

Rationale: A low-fat, high-protein diet reduces pancreatic stimulation and supports tissue repair in chronic pancreatitis. High-fat diets exacerbate symptoms, and carbohydrate balance is less critical.

Question 3 of 5

The nurse performs an assessment of an 8-year-old girl diagnosed with scoliosis.

Correct Answer: A

Rationale: Scoliosis causes lateral spinal curvature, leading to thoracic asymmetry. Waddling gait is associated with hip issues, edema with circulatory problems, and a protruding sternum with pectus carinatum, none of which are typical of scoliosis.

Question 4 of 5

A client with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) and a history of coronary artery disease is receiving aminophylline, 25 mg/hour. Which one of the following findings by the nurse would require immediate intervention?

Correct Answer: C

Rationale: Restlessness and palpitations. Side effects of Aminophylline include restlessness and palpitations.

Question 5 of 5

The client asks the nurse how the health care provider could tell she was pregnant 'just by looking inside.' What is the best explanation by the nurse?

Correct Answer: A

Rationale: Chadwick's sign is a bluish-purple coloration of the cervix and vaginal walls, occurring at 4 weeks of pregnancy, that is caused by vasocongestion.
