Question 1 of 5
Which expectation should be considered most critical prior to discharging a client with anorexia nervosa from the hospital?
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: Rationale: A critical expectation before discharging a client with anorexia nervosa is the attainment of minimum normal weight. This is crucial for the client's physical health and to prevent complications like organ damage. Resuming a normal menstrual cycle (B) is important but not as critical as restoring weight. Knowing about nutrition (C) is valuable but not as urgent as weight gain. Reducing exercise (D) may be necessary, but weight restoration takes precedence for overall health.
Question 2 of 5
The nurse who works in a sleep clinic knows that approximately ______% of adults suffer from insomnia.
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: The correct answer is B (30 to 40%). Insomnia is a common sleep disorder, affecting around 30-40% of adults. This range reflects the prevalence rates reported in various studies. Choices A, C, and D are incorrect because they provide prevalence rates that are either too low (A) or too high (C, D) compared to the generally accepted range for insomnia in adults. It is essential for the nurse in a sleep clinic to understand the prevalence of insomnia accurately to provide appropriate care and support to patients.
Question 3 of 5
A major difference in assessment findings between a patient with anorexia nervosa and a patient with bulimia nervosa is the patient with bulimia:
Correct Answer: C
Rationale: The correct answer is C because a major difference between anorexia nervosa and bulimia nervosa is that patients with bulimia are often of near-normal weight, while patients with anorexia are typically underweight. This is due to the different patterns of eating behaviors in the two disorders. In bulimia, individuals often engage in binge-eating episodes followed by compensatory behaviors such as purging, which may help maintain their weight. On the other hand, individuals with anorexia restrict their food intake significantly, leading to malnourishment and significant weight loss. Choice A is incorrect because individuals with bulimia can still experience malnourishment due to the purging behaviors. Choice B is incorrect because both patients with anorexia and bulimia may deny hunger due to their disordered eating behaviors. Choice D is incorrect because both disorders involve a distorted body image, although the specific nature of the distortion may differ.
