Nclex 2024 Questions Questions

Question 1 of 5

During discharge teaching for a client with diverticulitis on a low-roughage diet, which food should be eliminated from the diet?

Correct Answer: C

Rationale: The client with diverticulitis needs to avoid gas-forming foods that can increase abdominal discomfort. Cooked broccoli is a high-fiber food that can worsen symptoms. Roasted chicken, noodles, and custard are suitable choices for a low-roughage diet as they are less likely to cause gas formation or abdominal discomfort.

Question 2 of 5

Which of the following is not one of the three universal spiritual needs?

Correct Answer: D

Rationale: The three universal spiritual needs are meaning and purpose, love and relatedness, and forgiveness. These needs are commonly recognized across various belief systems and cultures. While the concept of God may be central to many religions, 'God's permission' is not considered a universal spiritual need. Seeking 'God's permission' is more specific to certain religious practices rather than a universally acknowledged spiritual need. Therefore, the correct answer is 'God's permission.' Choices A, B, and C are correct as they align with the generally accepted universal spiritual needs.

Question 3 of 5

The client is admitted to the unit after a cholecystectomy. Montgomery straps are utilized with this client. The nurse is aware that Montgomery straps are utilized on this client because:

Correct Answer: B

Rationale: Montgomery straps are used to secure dressings that require frequent changes due to the large amount of drainage usually present after a cholecystectomy. They are also beneficial for clients allergic to various types of tape. Answer A is incorrect as the client is not at higher risk of evisceration. Answer C is incorrect because Montgomery straps are not used to support drains. Answer D is incorrect as sutures or clips are typically used to secure the incision after gallbladder surgery, not Montgomery straps.

Question 4 of 5

During a school screening, a nurse notices small bruises on the anterior and posterior ribs of an 8-year-old Asian child. The nurse should ask the child:

Correct Answer: A

Rationale: The correct answer is to ask if the family practices coining. In Asian cultures, coining is a traditional practice believed to draw infections from the body. It involves rubbing a heated coin on the chest and torso, which can cause bruising similar to what the nurse noticed on the child's ribs. This question is important to differentiate between cultural practices and potential child abuse. Choices B, C, and D are incorrect because assuming abuse without considering cultural practices can lead to misinterpretation and inappropriate actions. It's crucial for healthcare providers to be culturally sensitive and gather all relevant information before making conclusions.

Question 5 of 5

A home health nurse is planning for her daily visits. Which client should the home health nurse visit first?

Correct Answer: C

Rationale: The correct answer is the client with laryngeal cancer who had a laryngectomy. This client is at risk for airway obstruction due to the surgical procedure, making it a priority visit. Clients with AIDS (choice A), a fractured femur (choice B), and diabetic ulcers (choice D) do not have immediate life-threatening conditions that require urgent attention compared to a client with a recent laryngectomy.
