ATI NCLEX-PN Practice Questions Questions
Extract:
Question 1 of 5
Which data indicate to the nurse the client with end-stage liver failure is improving?
Correct Answer: D
Rationale: Decreased abdominal girth indicates reduced ascites, a sign of improved liver function.
Question 2 of 5
After evaluating the meal tray of a Jewish client, the nurse notices the client ate none of the meal. Which intervention should the nurse implement first?
Correct Answer: D
Rationale: Determining why the client isn’t eating (e.g., kosher dietary needs, appetite) guides appropriate action, such as requesting a kosher meal. Family involvement, rabbi notification, or dietary requests are premature.
Question 3 of 5
Which information should the nurse discuss with the client to prevent an acute exacerbation of diverticulosis?
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: High fiber prevents diverticulosis exacerbations by promoting regular bowel movements, per AGA guidelines.
Question 4 of 5
The 33-year-old client had a traumatic amputation of the right forearm as a result of a work-related injury. Which referral by the rehabilitation nurse is most appropriate?
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: An occupational therapist helps with ADLs and prosthetic use post-amputation, the most relevant referral.
Question 5 of 5
The nurse is caring for a client who is a recent immigrant to the country. The family is present in the room and one member of the family speaks English. Which should the nurse implement to complete the admission assessment?
Correct Answer: D
Rationale: Using a medical interpreter ensures accurate, confidential communication, per standards. Family interpreting risks bias, gestures are inadequate, and notifying HCP avoids responsibility.
