Emotional 1ability is common to pregnant women. Identify which of the following reactions is accepted as part of a normal pregnancy?

Correct Answer: B

Rationale: Mood swings are recognized as a typical part of a normal pregnancy due to the hormonal changes that occur. Pregnant individuals may experience a wide range of emotions, from joy and elation to frustration and irritability. These fluctuations in mood are considered normal and not necessarily indicative of a more serious issue. It is essential for pregnant women to receive support and understanding during this time as they navigate the emotional ups and downs of pregnancy. Feelings being easily hurt by remarks (A) and narcissism (D) are not typically accepted as part of a normal pregnancy and may require further attention or support. While finding a situation amusing or charming (C) can be a positive experience, it is not specifically indicative of a normal emotional reaction during pregnancy.

Correct Answer: B

Rationale: One of the signs and symptoms of Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia (BPH) is not pain on urination. BPH is a non-cancerous enlargement of the prostate gland which can cause urinary symptoms such as frequency of urination, dribbling of urine, hesitancy in starting urination, weak urine flow, feeling of incomplete bladder emptying, and increased urination at night (nocturia). Pain on urination is not typically associated with BPH, and it may suggest other urinary tract issues such as a urinary tract infection or a different medical condition.

Correct Answer: C

Rationale: Nurse Minda should alert the unit staff to closely observe the fan because the occasional sparking may be a sign of an impending issue that could lead to a more serious problem. By closely monitoring the fan, the staff can ensure the safety of those in the unit and take necessary actions if the situation worsens. It is important to address potential safety hazards promptly to prevent any harm or damage.

Correct Answer: B

Rationale: The positive practice environment (PPE) in a health care setting typically includes components such as waste management, infection control, and peer review. However, electrical wires are not a standard component of the PPE in a work setting. Electrical safety is important in a healthcare facility, but it is usually addressed in a separate set of guidelines and protocols focusing specifically on electrical safety and maintenance. Therefore, among the given options, electrical wires are not considered a component of the positive practice environment in the work setting.

Correct Answer: D

Rationale: The correct answer is D, issuing a permit for the opening of nursing programs in the country. The PRC-Board of Nursing (PR-BON) in the Philippines primarily focuses on regulating nursing practice and ensuring the quality and standards of nursing care provided in the country. While they have the authority to oversee aspects such as certification of registered nurses, enforcing quality standards, and monitoring proper conduct of nurses, the responsibility of issuing permits for the opening of nursing programs typically falls under the jurisdiction of other relevant educational or accrediting bodies.
