Question 1 of 5

A nurse is reviewing a client's medical record and notes that the client is taking tamoxifen. The nurse should identify that tamoxifen is used to treat which of the following conditions?

Correct Answer: C

Rationale: Tamoxifen is an anti-estrogen medication primarily used to treat hormone receptor-positive breast cancer. It works by blocking estrogen receptors in breast tissue, slowing the growth of tumors that require estrogen to grow.

Question 2 of 5

A nurse is caring for a client who is 28 weeks pregnant and has preeclampsia. Which of the following is the priority assessment?

Correct Answer: C

Rationale: Blood pressure is the priority assessment in clients with preeclampsia because hypertension is the primary symptom of the condition. Elevated blood pressure increases the risk of complications such as eclampsia and placental abruption.

Question 3 of 5

A postpartum client's fundus is firm, 3 cm above the umbilicus and displaced to the right. Which of the following interventions should the nurse take?

Correct Answer: C

Rationale: Displacement of the uterus from the midline is often a sign of bladder distention. A full bladder can prevent the uterus from contracting properly, which could increase the risk of postpartum hemorrhage. The nurse should assist the client to void and then reassess the position and firmness of the fundus to ensure appropriate uterine contraction.

Question 4 of 5

A nurse is reviewing the laboratory results for a client who is at 29 weeks of gestation. Which of the following results should the nurse report to the provider?

Correct Answer: D

Rationale: A platelet count of 140,000/mm³ is at the lower end of the normal range but can be concerning in pregnancy, especially if there are signs of thrombocytopenia or bleeding.

Question 5 of 5

A nurse is caring for a client who is experiencing urinary incontinence. Which of the following recommendations should the nurse include in the teaching plan for this client?

Correct Answer: B

Rationale: Kegel exercises help strengthen the pelvic floor muscles, which can improve bladder control and reduce urinary incontinence. The nurse should instruct the client to practice these exercises regularly.
