Question 1 of 5
Which of the following statements describes the purpose of client restraint?
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: The correct answer is B. Restraints are used as an emergency intervention when all other options to protect a client from imminent danger have been exhausted. Restraints should only be used as a last resort to ensure the safety of the client and others. Choices A, C, and D are incorrect because restraints are not used to maintain control, reinforce behavior, or are exclusively taken under direct physician supervision. It is crucial to remember that restraint use should always be based on careful assessment, documentation, and adherence to legal and ethical guidelines.
Question 2 of 5
While undergoing fetal heart monitoring, a pregnant Native-American woman requests that a medicine woman be present in the examination room. Which of the following is an appropriate response by the nurse?
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: The correct response is to show cultural awareness and respect the client's request by offering assistance in arranging for the medicine woman to be present. This approach acknowledges the importance of cultural beliefs and practices in the client's care, fostering trust and cooperation. Choices B, C, and D are inappropriate as they dismiss or belittle the client's cultural beliefs, showing insensitivity and lack of respect, which can negatively impact the nurse-client relationship.
Question 3 of 5
Which of the following nursing diagnoses is most appropriate for a client with a new colostomy?
Correct Answer: C
Rationale: Disturbed Body Image is the most appropriate nursing diagnosis for a client with a new colostomy. A new colostomy can significantly impact a person's body image and self-esteem due to the physical changes it brings. This can lead to emotional distress, adjustment issues, and concerns about body image. Excess Fluid Volume, Risk for Aspiration, and Urinary Retention are not directly related to the psychosocial impact of a new colostomy and are therefore not as relevant in this context. While Excess Fluid Volume, Risk for Aspiration, and Urinary Retention are important nursing diagnoses, they are not the priority when considering the psychological and emotional effects of a new colostomy.
Question 4 of 5
A young boy is recently diagnosed with a seizure disorder. Which of the following statements by the boy's mother indicates a need for further teaching by the nurse?
Correct Answer: C
Rationale: The correct answer is "I should lay him on his back during a seizure."? This statement indicates a need for further teaching because a client having a seizure should be turned to the side to prevent aspiration of secretions. Choices A, B, and D are correct. Getting plenty of rest helps in managing seizures, having a medical alert bracelet informs others about the condition in case of emergency, and loosening clothing during a seizure ensures better air circulation and prevents injury. These actions demonstrate adequate understanding of the teaching provided.
Question 5 of 5
Which of the following foods might a client with hypercholesterolemia need to decrease intake of?
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: A client with hypercholesterolemia needs to decrease intake of foods that are high in cholesterol. Red meats like hamburgers are high in cholesterol, so their consumption should be reduced. Broiled catfish, wheat bread, and fresh apples are not high in cholesterol and do not need to be decreased in the client's diet. Therefore, the correct answer is hamburgers, as they are more likely to contribute to elevated cholesterol levels compared to the other options provided.
