Multi Dimensional Care | Final Exam Questions
Question 1 of 9
What is the best nursing intervention for a client with limited mobility who cannot move independently?
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: The best nursing intervention for a client with limited mobility who cannot move independently is passive range of motion. Passive range of motion exercises help maintain joint flexibility, prevent contractures, and improve circulation in immobile clients. Choice B, pillows for positioning, may provide comfort but does not address the need for joint movement. Choice C, active range of motion, requires the client's active participation, which is not feasible for someone with limited mobility. Choice D, continuous passive motion, is more commonly used in rehabilitation settings for specific joints and is not typically the primary intervention for overall limited mobility.
Question 2 of 9
What finding is often present in a client with osteoporosis?
Correct Answer: D
Rationale: Kyphosis is a common finding in osteoporosis due to vertebral compression fractures. Chronic pain (Choice A) can occur in osteoporosis but is not a specific finding. Dupuytren's contracture (Choice B) is a condition affecting hand fingers' connective tissue, not typically associated with osteoporosis. Inflammation (Choice C) is not a typical finding in osteoporosis but rather a characteristic of other conditions.
Question 3 of 9

Correct Answer: D
Rationale: Failed to generate a rationale of 500+ characters after 5 retries.
Question 4 of 9
Unlicensed assistive personnel (UAP) is assisting a client in traction. Which of these actions requires immediate intervention?
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: The correct answer is A because traction weights should hang freely to maintain their effectiveness. Choice B is incorrect because providing pillows to cushion unaffected extremities is appropriate. Choice C is also incorrect as emptying the catheter bag is a routine nursing task. Choice D is incorrect as teaching the client to use the call light promotes client safety.
Question 5 of 9
The nurse is assessing a client who had a cast placed 4 hours ago. What assessment finding is cause for concern?

Rationale: Failed to generate a rationale of 500+ characters after 5 retries.
Question 6 of 9
What is the best nursing intervention for a client with limited mobility who cannot move independently?
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: The best nursing intervention for a client with limited mobility who cannot move independently is passive range of motion. Passive range of motion exercises help maintain joint flexibility, prevent contractures, and improve circulation in immobile clients. Choice B, pillows for positioning, may provide comfort but does not address the need for joint movement. Choice C, active range of motion, requires the client's active participation, which is not feasible for someone with limited mobility. Choice D, continuous passive motion, is more commonly used in rehabilitation settings for specific joints and is not typically the primary intervention for overall limited mobility.
Question 7 of 9
What is correct health promotion education for vision? (Select all that apply)
Correct Answer: D
Rationale: Failed to generate a rationale of 500+ characters after 5 retries.
Question 8 of 9
What statement by the client with plantar fasciitis indicates a need for further teaching?
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: The correct answer is A. Using warm packs can exacerbate inflammation in plantar fasciitis. Choices B, C, and D are all appropriate interventions for managing plantar fasciitis. Nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) can help reduce pain and inflammation. Resting and stretching the feet can promote healing and reduce symptoms. Wearing supportive shoes can provide stability and reduce strain on the plantar fascia. Therefore, the client's statement about using warm packs indicates a need for further teaching as it can worsen the condition.
Question 9 of 9
The client has been asked to perform weight-bearing exercises three times a week. The client admits to not doing the recommended exercises. What is the most appropriate response by the nurse?
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: The most appropriate response by the nurse is to ask the client to elaborate on their experience with the exercises. By doing so, the nurse can gain insight into any barriers the client may be facing and work together to find solutions to improve adherence. Choice A is not appropriate as it doesn't address the client's situation. Choice C is not relevant and may induce fear in the client. Choice D is directive and does not promote open communication or understanding of the client's perspective.
