ATI Leadership Practice B Questions

Question 1 of 5

When using an open irrigation technique to irrigate a client's indwelling urinary catheter, which of the following actions should the nurse take?

Correct Answer: B

Rationale: When irrigating an indwelling urinary catheter, the nurse should use a 20-mL syringe for the procedure. This syringe size helps to provide adequate pressure for effective irrigation. Placing the client in a side-lying position is not necessary for this procedure. Instilling a specific amount of irrigation fluid into the catheter is not mentioned in the scenario. Subtracting the amount of irrigant used from the client's urine output is not a standard practice in catheter irrigation.

Question 2 of 5

Which of the following best describes the concept of cultural humility in nursing?

Correct Answer: D

Rationale: Cultural humility in nursing is about approaching patient care with an open mind, being willing to learn from patients, and adapting to their individual needs. Choice A is incorrect as cultural humility is not about a fixed set of competencies, but rather an ongoing process of self-reflection and learning. Choice B, recognizing and addressing power imbalances, is related to cultural competence but not the core concept of cultural humility. Choice C, adapting care to fit different cultural contexts, is more aligned with cultural competence rather than cultural humility.

Question 3 of 5

Even though this is not easy, facilitating ____________ is a mandatory skill for all nurse managers and is crucial in the success of the manager.

Correct Answer: B

Rationale: The correct answer is 'B: change.' Facilitating change is a crucial skill for nurse managers as they often need to lead and manage changes in healthcare settings. While managing resistance (choice A) is important, the question focuses on the necessity of facilitating change. Planning (choice C) and collecting data (choice D) are also essential skills for managers, but in this context, the emphasis is on the ability to facilitate change effectively.

Question 4 of 5

The ANA is a registered labor organization, but it does not engage in direct __________.

Correct Answer: D

Rationale: The correct answer is D, 'Collective bargaining.' The American Nurses Association is a registered labor organization, but it does not engage in direct collective bargaining. The actual certification of units, negotiation of contracts, and administration of contracts is conducted by the state nurses associations (SNAs). Choices A, B, and C are incorrect as the ANA's role does not involve empowering, rewarding, or encouraging union affiliation directly.

Question 5 of 5

An unresponsive patient with type 2 diabetes is brought to the emergency department and diagnosed with hyperosmolar hyperglycemic syndrome (HHS). The nurse will anticipate the need to

Correct Answer: B

Rationale: In a patient with hyperosmolar hyperglycemic syndrome (HHS), severe dehydration and electrolyte imbalances are common. To address these issues, the priority intervention is to insert a large-bore IV catheter for fluid resuscitation and electrolyte replacement. Giving a bolus of 50% dextrose would worsen the hyperglycemia. Initiating oxygen via nasal cannula may be beneficial for respiratory support but is not the priority in this scenario. Administering glargine (Lantus) insulin is not the initial treatment for HHS as it does not address the underlying severe dehydration and electrolyte imbalances.
