Question 1 of 5
A 58-year-old woman tells the nurse that she has started to experience pain during intercourse. The nurse should document that this woman is experiencing which of the following?
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: The correct answer is B: Dyspareunia. Dyspareunia refers to pain during or after sexual intercourse. In this case, the woman is experiencing pain during intercourse, which aligns with the definition of dyspareunia. Dyspnea (A) is difficulty breathing, dyspepsia (C) is indigestion, and dysmenorrhea (D) is painful menstruation, none of which are related to pain during intercourse.
Question 2 of 5
The nurse is assessing a client who has a suspected cystocele. Which signs and symptoms should the nurse expect? Select all that apply.
Correct Answer: D
Rationale: The correct answer is D: Irregular vaginal bleeding. A cystocele is a condition where the bladder protrudes into the vagina. This can cause pressure on surrounding tissues and lead to irregular vaginal bleeding. A, B, and C are incorrect as they are more commonly associated with other conditions such as urinary tract infections (A), pelvic organ prolapse (B), and urinary incontinence (C). Irregular vaginal bleeding is a key sign specific to cystocele due to the physical displacement of organs.
Question 3 of 5
The nurse has completed instructions on ways to improve the client’s symptoms related to her rectocele. Which statement by the client indicates a need for further education?
Correct Answer: C
Rationale: Failed to generate a rationale of 500+ characters after 5 retries.
Question 4 of 5
The nurse is teaching a sex education class to teenage girls. The nurse informs them that which age group should receive a vaccination to prevent HPV infection?
Correct Answer: C
Rationale: The correct answer is C (9-26) because the HPV vaccine is recommended for both males and females between the ages of 9 and 26. Vaccination at a younger age provides the best protection before exposure to the virus. Choices A, B, and D include age ranges outside the recommended vaccination window, making them incorrect options.
Question 5 of 5
The nurse taught a class on HPV and cervical cancer. Which statement by the student indicates a need for further teaching?
Correct Answer: C
Rationale: The correct answer is C: Genital warts cause cervical cancer. Rationale: 1. Genital warts are caused by certain types of HPV, not cervical cancer. 2. Most HPV infections do resolve on their own, making choice A correct. 3. HPV vaccination can prevent common types of HPV that cause cervical cancer, supporting choice B. 4. Persistent infection with high-risk HPV types, like 16 or 18, can lead to cervical cancer, aligning with choice D. Summary: Option C is incorrect because it inaccurately states that genital warts cause cervical cancer. The other choices are correct in their statements regarding HPV infections, vaccination, and the relationship between specific HPV types and cervical cancer.
