LPN Nursing Fundamentals Quizlet Questions
Question 1 of 5
Which of the following interventions on the part of the nurse would most help a confused ambulatory client find their room?
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: For a confused ambulatory client, placing a picture on the door best aids room recognition, leveraging visual memory over abstract numbers or verbal cues. Large numbers help but may not register with confusion, hourly reorientation is temporary, and pinning numbers risks loss. A familiar image like a family photo serves as a consistent, intuitive marker, enhancing independence and reducing disorientation in nursing care.
Question 2 of 5
It is most likely that an acutely ill client will need the room temperature set at which of the following temperatures?
Correct Answer: D
Rationale: An acutely ill client likely needs 78°F to prevent chills and support recovery, higher than cooler options. Nurses adjust this for comfort and healing.
Question 3 of 5
You are feeding a newborn infant in the nursery, as the mother is having some procedure done at this time. Before the infant finishes taking the contents of the bottle of formula, the infant slowly stops sucking and falls asleep. Which of the following actions would be best on your part?
Correct Answer: D
Rationale: Allowing a newborn to sleep after stopping sucking respects natural cues, unlike waking, waiting, or reporting normal behavior. Nurses prioritize this for infant well-being.
Question 4 of 5
Which nursing intervention is important for preventing falls during patient transfers?
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: Providing clear instructions and explanations helps prevent falls during transfers by ensuring patients understand and cooperate with the process, enhancing safety. One caregiver or rapid transfers risks instability, and skipping devices undermines support. Nurses use this to empower patients, reducing confusion-related mishaps, a proactive step in maintaining stability and preventing injuries during vulnerable movements.
Question 5 of 5
A nurse is caring for a client with severe hypoxemia and requires precise oxygen titration. Which oxygen delivery system would be most appropriate for this client?
Correct Answer: D
Rationale: High-flow nasal cannula (D) is best for severe hypoxemia needing precise titration, delivering up to 100% oxygen at 60 L/min with humidity, adjustable to SpO2 targets. Simple (A), non-rebreather (B), and partial rebreather (C) masks lack precision. High-flow ensures accuracy, per respiratory therapy, critical in severe cases.
