Fundamentals of Nursing LPN Questions
Question 1 of 9
Which of the following statement is NOT true about team nursing?
Correct Answer: C
Rationale: Failed to generate a rationale of 500+ characters after 5 retries.
Question 2 of 9
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: Failed to generate a rationale of 500+ characters after 5 retries.
Question 3 of 9
Proposed the GRAND THEORY OF NURSING AS CARING
Correct Answer: D
Rationale: Anne Boykin and Savina Schoenhofer's Grand Theory of Nursing as Caring (1990s) views all humans as caring, with nursing responding to this essence e.g., aiding a stranger instinctively. Erickson's modeling, Peterson's humanism, and Benner's skill focus differ. As a grand theory, it shapes ethical practice, emphasizing universal caring as nursing's moral core, influencing holistic care perspectives.
Question 4 of 9
Which of the following completely describes PULSUS PARADOXICUS?
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: Pulsus paradoxus is an exaggerated systolic drop (>10 mmHg) on inspiration e.g., in pericardial effusion due to heart compression. Other options misalign: increase (opposite), or positional pulse (unrelated). Nurses detect this e.g., via sphygmomanometer for cardiac emergencies, per pathophysiology.
Question 5 of 9
The nurse is teaching the parents of a 3 month-old infant about nutrition. What is the main source of fluids for an infant until about 12 months of age?
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: Failed to generate a rationale of 500+ characters after 5 retries.
Question 6 of 9
A framework for health assessment that evaluates the effects of stressors to the mind, body and environment in relation with the ability of the client to perform ADL.
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: Gordon's Functional Health Patterns (1980s) assess stressors' impact on mind, body, and environment re: ADLs e.g., mobility post-stroke. Unlike head-to-toe (physical order), body systems (organ-based), or cephalocaudal (top-down), it's holistic, guiding nurses in comprehensive, function-focused care planning.
Question 7 of 9
She theorized that man is composed of sub and supra systems. Subsystems are cells, tissues, organs and systems while the suprasystems are family, society and community.
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: Martha Rogers (1970s) theorized humans as unitary with subsystems (cells, organs) and suprasystems (family, society) e.g., recovery ties to both. Unlike Roy's adaptation, Henderson's needs, or Johnson's behavior, her interconnectedness guides nurses in holistic assessments e.g., social support per unitary theory.
Question 8 of 9
Nurse Angela diagnosed Mrs. Delgado, who have undergone a BKA. Her diagnosis is SELF ESTEEM DISTURBANCE R/T CHANGE IN BODY IMAGE. Although the client has not yet seen her lost leg, Angela already anticipated the diagnosis. This is what type of Diagnosis?
Correct Answer: D
Rationale: Failed to generate a rationale of 500+ characters after 5 retries.
Question 9 of 9
Meningismus refers to:
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: Meningismus is neck stiffness or other meningeal signs (e.g., Kernig's) without actual meningitis, often from subarachnoid blood or trauma. Choice B reverses this, incorrect. Choice C ties headache to meningitis progression, unrelated. Choice D is false; it's not age-specific. A is correct, per medical definition. Nurses differentiate it from meningitis via LP, ensuring proper diagnosis and care.
