ATI RN Custom Exams Set 5 Questions
Question 1 of 5
The nurse is caring for a client diagnosed with rule-out nephritic syndrome. Which intervention should be included in the plan of care?
Correct Answer: C
Rationale: The correct intervention to include in the plan of care for a client with rule-out nephritic syndrome is to assess the client's sacrum for dependent edema. Dependent edema is common in nephritic syndrome due to protein loss, and monitoring for this helps manage the condition.
Choices A, B, and D are incorrect. Monitoring the urine for bright-red bleeding may be more relevant for a client with a different condition, such as glomerulonephritis. Evaluating the calorie count of a 500-mg protein diet is not directly related to managing nephritic syndrome. Monitoring for a high serum albumin level does not directly address the symptom of dependent edema associated with nephritic syndrome.
Question 2 of 5
The nurse supervises care of a client in Buck's traction. The nurse determines that care is appropriate if which of the following is observed? (Select all that apply)
Correct Answer: C
Rationale: Correct care for a client in Buck's traction includes turning the client to the unaffected side to prevent complications such as pressure ulcers. Additionally, asking the client to dorsiflex the foot on the affected leg helps prevent foot drop. Removing the foam boot three times per day to inspect the skin is unnecessary and could disrupt the traction, so it is not appropriate.
Therefore, choices A and D are incorrect.
Question 3 of 5
The best position for any procedure that involves vaginal and cervical examination is
Correct Answer: D
Rationale: The lithotomy position is the most suitable position for procedures involving vaginal and cervical examination because it provides the best access to the vaginal and cervical regions. In this position, the patient lies on their back with their legs flexed and feet placed in stirrups, allowing for optimal visualization and access to the area. This position facilitates proper examination, diagnosis, and treatment when working in the gynecological field. The other options (dorsal recumbent, side lying, and supine) do not provide the same level of access and visualization as the lithotomy position, making them less ideal for vaginal and cervical examinations.
Question 4 of 5
Which of the following is a nonmedical member of a unit who receives additional training in providing care beyond basic first aid procedures?
Correct Answer: D
Rationale: The correct answer is D, Combat lifesaver. A Combat Lifesaver is a nonmedical member of a unit who receives specialized training in advanced first aid procedures, beyond basic first aid care. This training equips them to provide crucial medical assistance in emergency situations where immediate medical personnel may not be available.
Choices A, B, and C are incorrect as they do not specifically refer to nonmedical members trained in advanced first aid care beyond basic procedures.
Question 5 of 5
The use of the antibiotic neomycin may decrease the absorption of:
Correct Answer: C
Rationale: The correct answer is C. Neomycin can interfere with the absorption of fat-soluble vitamins such as vitamins A, D, E, and K.
Choice A is incorrect because neomycin does not affect the absorption of iron, copper, and zinc.
Choice B is incorrect as neomycin does not impact the absorption of protein and amino acids.
Choice D is also incorrect as neomycin does not decrease the absorption of water-soluble vitamins like vitamin C and the B vitamins.
