Extract:


Question 1 of 5

The nurse is reinforcing teaching with a client who is starting to use a cervical cap for contraception. Which client statement would require follow-up?

Correct Answer: C

Rationale: Leaving the cervical cap in for at least 24 hours increases infection risk; it should remain for 6-8 hours post-intercourse. Applying spermicide and inserting hours before intercourse are correct practices for effective use.

Question 2 of 5

Which comment by the client is most significant in light of the fact that he has Ménière's disease?

Correct Answer: C

Rationale: Cigarette smoking has been shown to aggravate Ménière's disease. The client will be told to stop smoking to decrease the frequency and severity of Ménière's. Walking, listening to an IPOD or other electronic device, and exposure to noise have not been shown to be related to Ménière's disease.
