ATI NCLEX-PN Practice Questions Questions
Extract:
Question 1 of 5
Which intervention should the nurse implement when discussing health promotion activities for a client with a German heritage who leads a sedentary lifestyle?
Correct Answer: C
Rationale: A sedentary lifestyle increases cardiovascular risks; identifying an exercise program promotes health, tailored to the client’s needs. Support groups, alcohol abstinence, and food restrictions are less prioritized without specific indications.
Question 2 of 5
The client asks the nurse, 'What are the risk factors for developing multiple sclerosis?' Which statement is a risk factor for multiple sclerosis (MS)?
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: Family history increases MS risk due to genetic predisposition, per NMSS.
Question 3 of 5
The client diagnosed with rheumatoid arthritis asks the nurse, 'Is it all right for me to wear this copper bracelet to help cure my arthritis?' Which statement by the nurse would be most appropriate?
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: Copper bracelets may provide placebo pain relief, and allowing their use supports autonomy if not harmful. Questioning, deferring to HCP, or dismissing are less supportive.
Question 4 of 5
The client with severe itching from an insect bite calls the clinic and asks the nurse, 'What do I need to do for the itching?' Which intervention should the nurse implement for the client problem of alteration in comfort?
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: Benadryl gel (diphenhydramine) relieves itching effectively, applied PRN. Tylenol/aspirin don’t target itching, hot water may worsen it, and hydrocortisone every 2 hours is excessive.
Question 5 of 5
The client has a fractured right tibia. Which assessment data warrant immediate intervention?
Correct Answer: C
Rationale: A cold foot suggests vascular compromise (e.g., compartment syndrome), requiring immediate intervention to prevent tissue damage.
