Question 1 of 5
The nurse is preparing a poster for a booth at a health fair to promote primary prevention of cervical cancer. Which recommendation should the nurse include on the poster?
Correct Answer: C
Rationale: Early treatment of cervical infection can help prevent chronic cervicitis, which can lead to dysplasia of the cervix. Cervical dysplasia is an early cell change that is considered to be premalignant. Douches and oral contraceptives do not decrease the risk for this type of cancer. BSE is useful for early detection of breast cancer, but is unrelated to cervical cancer.

Question 3 of 5
Which sound should you expect to hear when you percuss the liver during a complete physical assessment?
