Question 1 of 5
For this patient who is to undergo surgery (closure of the sac), what would be the PRIORITY nursing diagnosis? It is risk for __________.
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: The priority nursing diagnosis for a patient undergoing surgery (closure of the sac) would be risk for infection. This is because surgical procedures increase the risk of infection due to the breach in the skin and introduction of microorganisms. Infection can lead to serious complications, delay healing, and prolong recovery time. Therefore, prevention, early detection, and prompt treatment of infections are essential in the perioperative period to ensure the best possible outcomes for the patient.
Question 2 of 5
Upon seeing warning signs of child abuse, the BEST nursing action that Nurse Alma should make is to report the noted observation to __________.
Correct Answer: A

DSWD is the government agency tasked with protecting the welfare of children and families. They have the necessary authority and resources to investigate and intervene in cases of child abuse. Reporting to DSWD ensures that professional social workers and experts will step in to assess the situation, provide necessary interventions, and ensure the safety of the child. It is important to involve the appropriate authorities who are trained to handle cases of child abuse effectively. Reporting to the DSWD helps in safeguarding the well-being of the child and taking the necessary steps to address the situation appropriately.
Question 3 of 5
Nurse Angie added that oral contraceptives also contains progesterone. Which of the following is the action of progesterone in contraception? It inhibits _______.
Correct Answer: C
Rationale: Progesterone in oral contraceptives works primarily by inhibiting ovulation. It suppresses the secretion of luteinizing hormone (LH) from the pituitary gland, which is essential for triggering the release of an egg (ovulation) from the ovary. By blocking ovulation, progesterone helps prevent pregnancy by making it less likely for a mature egg to be available for fertilization. This mechanism of action is a key factor in the effectiveness of progesterone-containing contraceptives in preventing pregnancy.
Question 4 of 5
Patient Haydee comes to the perinatal unit of Hospital DEE. Nurse Arcee does through SCREENING assessment. Which is the Least screening assessment to be used by the nurse/
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: Radiologic procedures are typically not used as the least screening assessment by nurses in a perinatal unit. The nurse's initial screening assessments usually focus on gathering information through techniques such as physical examination, interviews, and reviewing laboratory results. Radiologic procedures, such as X-rays or CT scans, are usually ordered by physicians once a more specific diagnostic need has been identified, based on the initial screening assessments performed by the nurse. Therefore, in this scenario, the least screening assessment to be used by the nurse would be radiologic procedures.
