Rationale: The most effective plan would be for the nurse to educate the entire family at the same time about the disease and medications to treat it (Option C). This approach ensures that each family member receives the same information and understanding about obsessive compulsive disorder (OCD) and its treatment. By educating the entire family simultaneously, it creates a supportive environment where everyone is on the same page and can provide understanding and assistance to the individual with OCD, in this case, Mrs. Juan. It also allows for open communication and collaboration within the family unit, leading to better management and support for Mrs. Juan in dealing with her illness.

Correct Answer: A

Rationale: Option A is the most appropriate nursing intervention to facilitate effective communication with the 80-year-old male patient. This approach involves waiting for the patient to be fully awake before discussing important information about the surgery and potential post-surgery events with both the patient and family. This allows the patient to fully comprehend the information provided and ask any necessary questions. Effective communication is crucial in promoting patient understanding and cooperation, especially in older adults who may require additional time to process information due to factors such as age-related cognitive changes. It is important to ensure that the patient receives clear and accurate information to support their recovery process and reduce anxiety.

Correct Answer: C

Rationale: The nurse's priority action when noticing a malfunctioning anesthesia machine in the operating room should be to inform the anesthesia provider immediately. Anesthesia providers are responsible for administering anesthesia safely during surgical procedures, and they need to be made aware of any equipment issues promptly to ensure patient safety. Continuing with the surgical procedure using a malfunctioning anesthesia machine can pose serious risks to the patient's well-being. Using an alternative anesthesia machine may be an option, but informing the anesthesia provider first ensures that the appropriate action is taken to address the issue effectively. Documenting the malfunction in the equipment log is important for record-keeping purposes, but it should not take precedence over informing the anesthesia provider and taking immediate action to address the problem.

Correct Answer: B

Rationale: The most likely diagnosis in this scenario is epididymitis. Epididymitis is an inflammation of the epididymis, a coiled tube at the back of the testicle that stores and carries sperm. Common symptoms include scrotal pain, swelling, erythema (redness), and a tender, fluctuant mass in the scrotum due to an abscess. Risk factors for epididymitis include urinary tract infections, sexually transmitted infections (such as gonorrhea or chlamydia), and recent urological procedures. It is important to differentiate epididymitis from testicular torsion, which would present with sudden, severe testicular pain, absent cremasteric reflex, and a high-riding testicle. Testicular cancer typically presents as a painless mass or swelling in the scrotum, and hydrocele presents as painless scrotal swelling due to a collection of fluid

Correct Answer: A

Rationale: Reed-Sternberg cells are large, abnormal lymphocytes that are characteristic of Hodgkin's Lymphoma. They are typically found in the affected lymph nodes of individuals with Hodgkin's Lymphoma when examined under a microscope. Identifying Reed-Sternberg cells in a lymph node biopsy is a key diagnostic feature of Hodgkin's Lymphoma. This distinguishes Hodgkin's Lymphoma from other types of lymphomas that do not have Reed-Sternberg cells.
