Correct Answer: B

Rationale: When a client reports pain at the site of an indwelling urinary catheter, the nurse's first action should be to notify the provider. This is important to ensure timely assessment and intervention by the healthcare provider. Irrigating the catheter with normal saline or administering antibiotics should not be done without provider's orders as it may mask symptoms or lead to inappropriate treatment. Assessing for signs of infection is important but should come after notifying the provider, who can guide further assessment and treatment.

Correct Answer: B

Rationale: The correct answer is B: High-fat diet, smoking, alcohol consumption. These are modifiable risk factors for colorectal cancer as individuals can make lifestyle changes to reduce their risk. Age and gender (choice A) are non-modifiable risk factors. Ethnicity and race (choice C) can influence the risk of colorectal cancer but are not modifiable factors. Exposure to radiation (choice D) is not a common modifiable risk factor for colorectal cancer.

Correct Answer: C

Rationale: The correct answer is to reposition the client every 4 hours. Repositioning the client helps prevent pressure injuries caused by urinary incontinence by relieving pressure on vulnerable areas of the skin. Choice A, using a heating pad for comfort, is not directly related to preventing pressure injuries. Choice B, applying a barrier cream to the skin, may help protect the skin but does not address the underlying cause of pressure injuries. Choice D, changing the client's position every 2 hours, is more frequent than necessary and may not be as effective in preventing pressure injuries as repositioning every 4 hours.

Correct Answer: B

Rationale: The correct answer is B: 'Wear shoes at all times.' This instruction is crucial for clients with diabetes as it helps protect the feet from potential injuries. Choice A of soaking feet in warm water daily can lead to skin issues and should be avoided. Cutting toenails in a rounded shape, as mentioned in choice C, can increase the risk of ingrown toenails. While inspecting the feet weekly, as in choice D, is important, wearing shoes at all times is a more preventative measure to avoid foot injuries in diabetic clients.

Correct Answer: D

Rationale: The correct answer is D: Chronic conditions. Chronic conditions, such as diabetes or immune suppression, can compromise the immune system, making individuals more susceptible to infections. Frequent handwashing (Choice A) is actually a protective measure against infections. Increased mobility (Choice B) and high blood pressure (Choice C) are not directly associated with an increased risk for infections.
