Question 1 of 5

When is the best time to collect urine specimen for routine urinalysis and C/S?

Correct Answer: A

Rationale: Early morning urine first void e.g., concentrated overnight is best for urinalysis/C&S, detecting abnormalities (glucose, bacteria). Later times dilute; midnight, pre-breakfast vary. Nurses collect this e.g., 6 AM for diagnostic accuracy, per lab protocols.

Question 2 of 5

Which of the following is TRUE about the human needs?

Correct Answer: D

Rationale: Maslow's theory (1940s) allows need priorities to shift e.g., safety over hunger in danger. Needs interrelate (esteem ties to safety), aren't rigid, and can defer. Nurses adapt e.g., tackling pain before teaching reflecting this flexibility, key to responsive care planning.

Question 3 of 5

Which of the following is TRUE about temperature?

Correct Answer: A

Rationale: Temperature peaks late day (8 PM-midnight) e.g., circadian rise while lowest is early morning (not noon). Thyroxin raises temp, and elderly risk hypothermia (not hyperthermia) from poor regulation. Nurses monitor this e.g., fever trends per physiological norms.

Question 4 of 5

If the client is female, and the doctor is a male and the patient is about to undergo a vaginal and cervical examination, why is it necessary to have a female nurse in attendance?

Correct Answer: D

Rationale: A female nurse ensures ethics e.g., chaperoning prevents misconduct in a male doctor's vaginal exam. Safety, assistance, monitoring are secondary. Nurses uphold e.g., comfort for standards, per guidelines.

Question 5 of 5

The client underwent a colon surgery yesterday, and just started on ice chips today, Which of the following assessment findings demonstrates a need for nursing intervention?

Correct Answer: B

Rationale: Absence of bowel sounds post-colon surgery e.g., ileus needs intervention (e.g., notify MD), unlike hypoactive (returning), mixed, or hyperactive (normalizing). Nurses assess e.g., auscultation for complications, per post-op care.
