Question 1 of 5
Which is true of a Wilms tumor? (Select all that apply.)
Correct Answer: C
Rationale: Wilms tumor typically occurs in children aged 2-5 years and may be associated with congenital anomalies. It is not the same as neuroblastoma, and its prognosis is generally good with treatment.
Question 2 of 5
A 3-year-old female is hospitalized for a femur fracture. As her nurse, what nursing action would help foster the child's sense of autonomy?
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: Allowing preschoolers to participate in actions for which they are capable is an excellent way to enhance their sense of autonomy.
Question 3 of 5
The nurse is admitting a newborn with hypospadias to the nursery. The nurse expects which finding in this newborn?
Correct Answer: D
Rationale: Hypospadias is a congenital condition where the opening of the urethra is located on the ventral surface of the penis instead of the tip. This results in the ventral placement of the urethral meatus compared to the normal dorsal position. It can typically be visually identified when examining the newborn's genitalia. A key characteristic of hypospadias is the abnormal positioning of the urethral opening, which distinguishes it from other conditions affecting the male genitalia.
Question 4 of 5
The nurse would monitor the client for which of the following?
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: Trousseau's sign is a clinical sign characterized by carpal spasm induced by inflating a blood pressure cuff above the systolic pressure for a few minutes. It is indicative of hypocalcemia, specifically low calcium levels in the blood. Therefore, the nurse would monitor the client for Trousseau's sign to assess for potential hypocalcemia. This could prompt the healthcare provider to order further diagnostic tests or interventions to address the underlying calcium imbalance. Options B, C, and D do not directly relate to monitoring for Trousseau's sign.
Question 5 of 5
