Question 1 of 5
Which screening test for colorectal cancer should the nurse recommend?
Correct Answer: D
Rationale: The nurse should recommend a proctosigmoidoscopy for colorectal cancer screening in individuals over the age of 50. This procedure allows for the visualization of the lower part of the colon and rectum, which are common sites for precancerous and cancerous lesions to develop. Proctosigmoidoscopy can help identify abnormalities early on, allowing for prompt intervention and treatment. This screening method helps in detecting colorectal cancer or pre-cancerous polyps at an early stage when they are more easily treatable. Regular screening is essential for early detection and prevention of colorectal cancer. Other screening tests such as carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA) test, annual digital examination, and barium enema are not recommended as primary screening methods for colorectal cancer.
