NCLEX Trainer Test 7 Questions
Extract:
Question 1 of 5
The nurse is teaching a client who is preparing to breast-feed. What is the best approach to promote successful breast-feeding?
Correct Answer: C
Rationale: Assist her to position the newborn at the breast. While all of the responses are helpful in teaching, the priority is placing the infant to breast as soon after birth as possible to establish contact and allow the newborn to begin to suck.
Question 2 of 5
The nurse is caring for a client with a history of deep vein thrombosis.
Correct Answer: D
Rationale: Bed rest with leg elevation reduces venous pressure and prevents clot dislodgement in DVT. Analgesics and compresses are supportive, and active exercises risk embolization.
Question 3 of 5
The nurse is preparing a client for a kidney-ureter-bladder x-ray (KUB). What is included in the preparation?
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: Explaining the procedure reduces anxiety and ensures cooperation, a key preparation for a non-invasive KUB x-ray.
Question 4 of 5
The nurse is to suction a client. What action is essential prior to inserting the suction catheter?
Correct Answer: C
Rationale: Pre-oxygenation prevents hypoxia during suctioning, a critical step. Clearing secretions, lowering the bed, or checking pressure are secondary.
Question 5 of 5
Which of the following meal choices is suitable for a 6-month-old infant?
Correct Answer: C
Rationale: Rice cereal, formula, and apple juice are appropriate for a 6-month-old, as they are easily digestible and safe. Egg whites, whole milk, and orange juice are not recommended before 1 year due to allergy and digestive risks.
