PN NCLEX Practice Exam Questions

Extract:


Question 1 of 5

Which of the following situations is most likely to produce sepsis in the neonate?

Correct Answer: B

Rationale: Prolonged rupture of membranes. Premature rupture of the membranes (PROM) is a leading cause of newborn sepsis. After 12-24 hours of leaking fluid, measures are taken to reduce the risk to mother and the fetus/newborn.

Question 2 of 5

The nurse is talking with a client who has a new prescription for misoprostol to prevent gastric ulcers. Which of the following statements by the client would require follow-up?

Correct Answer: C

Rationale: Taking misoprostol with antacids (
C) reduces its efficacy and requires follow-up. Taking with meals (
A), using contraception (
B), and reporting black stools (
D) are correct.

Question 3 of 5

The nurse is caring for an infant who has a prescription for amoxicillin 25 mg/kg/day in 2 divided doses. The client weighs 16.5 lb (7.5 kg). The nurse has amoxicillin oral suspension 125 mg/5 mL available. How many mL should the nurse administer to the client with each dose? Record your answer using 2 decimal places.

Correct Answer: 3.75 mL/dose

Rationale: Calculation: 7.5 kg × 25 mg/kg/day = 187.5 mg/day. Divided into 2 doses = 93.75 mg/dose. 125 mg/5 mL = 25 mg/mL. 93.75 mg ÷ 25 mg/mL = 3.75 mL/dose (
A).

Question 4 of 5

The nurse is caring for a client who is recovering from a cerebrovascular accident and is partially paralyzed on the right side. How should the nurse position the chair when getting the client out of bed?

Correct Answer: C

Rationale: Placing the chair on the left (unaffected) side facing the foot allows the client to pivot using their stronger side, facilitating safe transfer. Right-side placement or incorrect orientation hinders mobility.

Question 5 of 5

The clinic nurse is caring for a client who had cataract surgery with intraocular lens implantation 2 days ago. Which client report requires priority intervention?

Correct Answer: C

Rationale: Itching in the affected eye (
C) may indicate infection or complications post-cataract surgery, requiring immediate intervention. Blurry vision (
