ATI NCLEX-PN Practice Questions Questions
Extract:
Question 1 of 5
Which assessment data would make the nurse suspect the client has cancer of the bladder?
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: Gross painless hematuria is the hallmark symptom of bladder cancer, per AUA guidelines.
Question 2 of 5
The 24-year-old African American female client tells the nurse she has a brother with sickle cell disease. She is engaged to be married and is concerned about giving this disease to her future children. Which information is most important to provide to the client?
Correct Answer: C
Rationale: Genetic counseling assesses carrier status and risks for sickle cell disease, the most proactive step.
Question 3 of 5
Which form of complementary therapy should the nurse encourage as a relaxation technique for the anxious elderly client admitted for surgery?
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: Deep breathing is a simple, effective relaxation technique for elderly clients, reducing anxiety pre-surgery. Meditation may be complex, Rolfing is physical manipulation, and scented candles pose fire risks.
Question 4 of 5
The nurse assessing an elderly client diagnosed with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease notes purple, round, nontender areas on the client's back. Which question should the nurse ask the client?
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: Purple, round marks suggest cupping, a traditional therapy for respiratory issues, common in some cultures. Bruising, abuse, or client causation are less likely without evidence.
Question 5 of 5
Which client should the charge nurse on the substance abuse unit assign to the licensed practical nurse (LPN)?
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: The stable alcoholic client is suitable for an LPN, unlike those with acute symptoms or psychiatric risks.
