Maternal Newborn Nclex Practice Questions Questions
Question 1 of 5
The nurse is assessing a client in the third trimester who reports headaches and blurred vision. What is the priority nursing action?
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: Failed to generate a rationale of 500+ characters after 5 retries.
Question 2 of 5
A 17-year-old patient receives emergency contraception in a clinic. What is the priority nursing education for this patient at this time?
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: The patient should be informed that emergency contraception is a temporary measure and they need a long-term contraceptive plan. Choice B, while important for overall sexual health, is not the priority immediately after administering emergency contraception. Choice C is not necessary unless there are complications or a follow-up consultation is needed. Choice D about drinking fluids is unnecessary and not specific to the effectiveness of emergency contraception.
Question 3 of 5
A 26-year-old woman is interested in using an IUD for contraception. What is the primary advantage of using an IUD over other contraceptive methods?
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: One of the primary advantages of the IUD is that it requires no daily action, making it a convenient and reliable method. Choice B is incorrect because it may take a few days for some types of IUDs to provide full protection. Choice C is incorrect because immediate protection may not be ensured immediately after insertion, especially for hormonal IUDs. Choice D is incorrect because IUDs typically last for several years, not just 6 months.
Question 4 of 5
The nurse provides counseling on coitus interruptus. What important counseling should be included?
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: The important counseling that should be included when discussing coitus interruptus (withdrawal method) is that the partners must communicate well to use this method effectively. Coitus interruptus involves the male partner withdrawing his penis from the vagina before ejaculation to prevent sperm from entering the woman's reproductive tract. Effective communication between partners is crucial to ensure that the method is used correctly and consistently. This method does not protect against sexually transmitted infections (STIs), so it's also important to discuss alternative methods of contraception for STI prevention. The statement that this method is 100 percent effective is incorrect, as pre-ejaculate can contain sperm and there is a risk of pregnancy if withdrawal is not done correctly.
Question 5 of 5
A patient calls the clinic Monday morning. She had condomless sex Friday night and is interested in emergency contraception. What should the nurse tell this patient?
Correct Answer: D
Rationale: The correct advice for the patient in this scenario is to inform her that she can still use emergency contraceptive pills, even if she has had other condomless sex since the Friday night event. Emergency contraceptive pills are most effective when taken as soon as possible after unprotected sex, but they can still be used within a certain window of time depending on the type of pill used. It is important to inform the patient that she can take emergency contraception in this situation to reduce the risk of an unintended pregnancy.
