Multi Dimensional Care | Final Exam Questions
Question 1 of 9
What is accurate health promotion teaching to prevent ear infection or trauma? (Select all that apply)
Correct Answer: D
Rationale: The correct health promotion teachings to prevent ear infection or trauma include blowing the nose gently without blocking nostrils, wearing hearing protection when exposed to loud noise, and avoiding the use of cotton-tipped applicators to clean the external ear. Blocking one nostril when blowing the nose is incorrect, as it can cause problems. Therefore, choice A is inaccurate. Additionally, using cotton-tipped applicators to clean the external ear can lead to trauma or infection, making choice C a correct preventive measure.
Question 2 of 9
What are nonsurgical treatment options for carpal tunnel syndrome? (Select all that apply)
Correct Answer: D
Rationale: The correct answer is D, 'All of the above.' Non-surgical treatments for carpal tunnel syndrome include using a splint, ultrasound therapy, corticosteroid injections, and NSAIDs. Choice A is correct as using a splint helps to keep the wrist in a neutral position, reducing pressure on the median nerve. Choice B is correct as ultrasound therapy can help reduce inflammation and alleviate symptoms. Choice C, 'Endoscopic carpal tunnel release,' is incorrect as it is a surgical procedure, not a nonsurgical treatment option for carpal tunnel syndrome.
Question 3 of 9
What is the priority nursing diagnosis for a client with immobility?
Correct Answer: C
Rationale: The correct priority nursing diagnosis for a client with immobility is 'Risk for impaired skin integrity as evidenced by pressure over bony prominences.' Immobility predisposes the client to the development of pressure ulcers due to prolonged pressure on bony areas. Monitoring and preventing impaired skin integrity is crucial to prevent complications. Choices A, B, and D are not the priority in this case. Constipation, ineffective breathing pattern, and disuse syndrome are important but secondary to the immediate risk of skin breakdown associated with immobility.

Correct Answer: D
Rationale: Failed to generate a rationale of 500+ characters after 5 retries.
Question 7 of 9
What is not a nursing intervention for a client with osteoporosis?
Correct Answer: C
Rationale: The correct answer is C. Avoiding muscle strengthening exercises is not recommended for clients with osteoporosis; on the contrary, weight-bearing exercises are beneficial. Choice A is correct as ensuring adequate calcium and vitamin D intake is essential for bone health. Choice B is also correct as weight-bearing exercises help improve bone density. Choice D is incorrect because avoiding repetitive movements is not a standard nursing intervention for osteoporosis.
Question 8 of 9
What are signs of hearing loss? (Select all that apply)
Correct Answer: C
Rationale: Failed to generate a rationale of 500+ characters after 5 retries.
Question 9 of 9
A client is diagnosed with glaucoma. The provider needs to determine if it is open-angle glaucoma or closed-angle glaucoma. What test does the nurse anticipate?
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: Gonioscopy is the appropriate test to anticipate in this scenario. It is used to distinguish between open-angle and closed-angle glaucoma by examining the angle where the iris meets the cornea. Choice A, ultrasonic imaging, is not typically used to differentiate between these types of glaucoma. Choice C, corneal staining, is used to detect corneal abrasions and defects, not to differentiate between types of glaucoma. Choice D, electroretinography, is a test that measures the electrical responses of various cell types in the retina and is not specific to differentiating between open-angle and closed-angle glaucoma.
