Question 1 of 5
Regarding advanced roles of nursing, which statement related to clinical practice is the most accurate?
Correct Answer: C
Rationale: The most accurate statement related to clinical practice among the choices presented is that neonatal nurse practitioners provide emergency care in the postbirth setting to high-risk infants. Neonatal nurse practitioners specialize in the care of newborns, particularly those who are premature or have health complications. They work in settings such as neonatal intensive care units (NICUs) and provide specialized care to meet the needs of high-risk infants. Neonatal nurse practitioners collaborate with neonatologists and other healthcare professionals to ensure that these fragile patients receive the necessary care and attention. This role involves advanced clinical skills and knowledge in the care of neonates, making it a crucial part of the healthcare team for newborns in need of specialized care.

Question 4 of 5
A 55-year-old postmenopausal female patient presents to the family practice clinic for her annual examination. The nurse notes that the patient has lost inch in height. Upon further investigation, the nurse discovers that the patient has a slow-healing fracture of the left radius. What screening will most likely be initiated at this time for the patient?
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: In this scenario, the postmenopausal female patient who has lost height and has a slow-healing fracture of the left radius presents with concerning factors for osteoporosis. The most appropriate screening to initiate in this case would be a dual-energy x-ray absorptiometry (DEXA) scan. DEXA scan is the gold standard for diagnosing osteoporosis by measuring bone mineral density. Given the patient's age, postmenopausal status, height loss, and fracture history, assessing bone health through a DEXA scan is crucial to determine the presence of osteoporosis and guide appropriate management and treatment strategies.
