Extract:


Question 1 of 5

The nurse is teaching the parent of a 7-year-old client with celiac disease. Which statement by the parent would require follow-up?

Correct Answer: A

Rationale: Barley contains gluten, which is harmful in celiac disease, indicating a need for further teaching. Rice, corn, potatoes, lifelong gluten-free diet, and avoiding processed foods are correct.

Question 2 of 5

An unlicensed assistive personnel (UAP), who usually works in pediatrics is assigned to work on a medical-surgical unit. Which one of the questions by the charge nurse would be most appropriate prior to making delegation decisions?

Correct Answer: C

Rationale: The UAP must be competent to accept the delegated task. Further assessment of the qualifications of the UAP is important in order to assign the right task.

Question 3 of 5

The nurse is caring for assigned clients. The nurse should first check the client with

Correct Answer: A

Rationale: Severe pain (9/10) in sickle cell disease indicates a possible vaso-occlusive crisis, a medical emergency requiring immediate assessment. Fever, tachycardia, and hyperglycemia are less urgent.

Question 4 of 5

An adult client who had a cervical laminectomy is returned to her room on the nursing care unit. The postanesthesia nurse reports that the client is awake and has stable vital signs. The nurse should position the client in which of the following positions?

Correct Answer: C

Rationale: Side-lying position promotes comfort and maintains spinal alignment post-cervical laminectomy, reducing strain on the surgical site. Supine or prone positions may increase pressure on the neck, and semi-reclining is less optimal for spinal stability.

Question 5 of 5

An adult who had a cerebrovascular accident (CVA) with expressive aphasia has started saying some words. The client's family is quite upset because the words are mostly profanity. They tell the nurse that the client usually does not use profanity. How should the nurse respond to the family?

Correct Answer: B

Rationale: Profanity in early expressive aphasia post-CVA is common due to disinhibition in damaged brain areas; reassuring the family that other words will follow is appropriate.
