Extract:
Question 1 of 5
The teaching plan for gay or lesbian parents who want to disclose their homosexuality to their children should include all of the following instructions except:
Correct Answer: D
Rationale: Children of gay and lesbian parents should be reassured that their relationship with their parent will not change because of the discussion.
Question 2 of 5
The client has just had a basal cell carcinoma removed in the doctor's office. Which statement the client makes indicates understanding regarding prevention and early detection of basal cell carcinoma?
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: Long sleeves protect against UV exposure, a key risk for basal cell carcinoma. Moles, lotions, or tanning booths are unrelated or harmful.
Question 3 of 5
The nurse is caring for a client with a history of myasthenia gravis.
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: Avoiding crowds reduces infection risk, critical in myasthenia gravis due to immunosuppressive therapy. Pyridostigmine is taken with food, activity is encouraged, and blood pressure monitoring is not primary.
Question 4 of 5
A 9-year-old is admitted with suspected rheumatic fever. Which finding is suggestive of Syndeham's chorea?
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: Syndeham's chorea is characterized by irregular, involuntary movements and facial grimacing, so A is correct. Answers B, C, and D describe other rheumatic fever symptoms but not chorea.
Question 5 of 5
A client who had a lumbar laminectomy has just returned to the nursing care unit following an uneventful stay in the postanesthesia care unit. How should the nurse position the client?
Correct Answer: C
Rationale: Side-lying with a pillow between legs maintains spinal alignment post-lumbar laminectomy, reducing strain. Supine or prone may stress the surgical site, and semi-reclining is less ideal.
