Question 1 of 5

Which vaccine is contraindicated in pregnancy :

Correct Answer: A

Rationale: Vaccines in pregnancy balance maternal-fetal safety. Rubella vaccine (choice A), a live attenuated virus, is contraindicated due to theoretical risks of congenital rubella syndrome if the virus crosses the placenta, though no cases are definitively linked. Diphtheria (choice B) and tetanus (choice C) vaccines, as inactivated toxoids (e.g., Td), are safe and recommended to protect mother and newborn. Hepatitis B vaccine (choice D), an inactivated subunit vaccine, poses no fetal risk and is given if the mother is at risk. A is correct because rubella's live nature excludes it from routine prenatal use. Nurses must counsel pregnant women on vaccine safety, ensuring tetanus protection while avoiding live vaccines like rubella to safeguard fetal development.

Question 2 of 5

Which nerve injury leads to wrist drop:

Correct Answer: D

Rationale: Wrist drop is inability to extend the wrist. Axillary nerve (choice A) affects shoulder, not wrist. Ulnar nerve (choice B) impacts hand sensation/movement, not extension. Median nerve (choice C) controls forearm flexors. Radial nerve (choice D) innervates wrist extensors; injury (e.g., humeral fracture) causes wrist drop. D is correct, per anatomy. Nurses assess grip, apply splints, and support rehab, aiding recovery.

Question 3 of 5

According to her, A nurse patient relationship is composed of 4 stages : Orientation, Identification, Exploitation and Resolution

Correct Answer: B

Rationale: Hildegard Peplau (B) defined the nurse-patient relationship in four stages: Orientation (meeting and trust-building), Identification (role clarity), Exploitation (using resources for goals), and Resolution (termination). Roy (A) focuses on adaptation, Rogers (C) on unitary humans, and Travelbee (D) on human-to-human connection, none using these exact stages. Peplau's interpersonal theory is foundational in nursing, aligning with the described phases, making B correct.

Question 4 of 5

Rommel told Budek 'I SEE DEAD PEOPLE ' Budek responded 'You see dead people?' This Is an example of therapeutic communication technique?

Correct Answer: B

Rationale: Budek's 'You see dead people?' is restating (B), repeating Rommel's words to show listening and encourage elaboration. Reflecting (A) mirrors feelings (e.g., 'You're scared?'). Exploring (C) probes deeper (e.g., 'Tell me more'). Clarification (D) seeks meaning (e.g., 'What do you mean?'). Restating, common in schizophrenia care, validates without judgment, making B correct.

Question 5 of 5

A type of record wherein, each person or department makes notation in separate records. A nurse will use the nursing notes, The doctor will use the Physician's order sheet etc. Data is arranged according to information source.

Correct Answer: C

Rationale: Traditional records (C) separate notes by source (e.g., nursing, physician), per charting standards. POMR (A) and POR (B) integrate problem-focused data. Resource-oriented (D) isn't standard. C matches the description, making it correct.
