Extract:
Question 1 of 5
A client who is experiencing infertility says to the nurse, 'I feel I will be incomplete as a man/woman if I cannot have a child.' Which of the following nursing diagnoses is likely to be appropriate for this client?
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: The correct nursing diagnosis for this client is 'Body Image Disturbance.' The client's statement reflects concerns about self-identity and feeling incomplete due to infertility, which aligns with Body Image Disturbance. The statement does not directly indicate a risk for self-harm, so 'Risk for Self-Harm' is not the correct choice. 'Ineffective Role Performance' is not the best option as it does not address the client's primary concern regarding self-image. While 'Powerlessness' could be appropriate if the client expressed feelings of powerlessness related to infertility, it is not the most suitable diagnosis based on the given statement.
Question 2 of 5
What type of immunity do vaccines provide?
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: Vaccines provide active immunity by stimulating the immune system to produce antibodies against specific pathogens.
Choice B, passive immunity, is acquired from ready-made antibodies, not through vaccination.
Choice C, transplacental immunity, is a form of passive immunity transferred from mother to infant, not acquired through vaccines.
Therefore, the correct answer is active immunity.
Question 3 of 5
When assessing the health-related physical fitness of a client as part of a health assessment, what aspect should be the focus?
Correct Answer: D
Rationale: When assessing the health-related physical fitness of a client, the primary focus should be on identifying risk factors that could predispose the client to illness or injury. Risk factors are crucial in determining an individual's overall health status and potential health outcomes. While agility, speed, and body composition are important components of physical fitness assessments, they are not the primary focus when assessing health-related physical fitness from a holistic perspective.
Therefore, the correct choice is 'risk factors.'
Question 4 of 5
A 65-year-old female client is experiencing postmenopausal bleeding. Which type of physician should this client be encouraged to see?
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: A gynecologist is the appropriate physician for this scenario as they specialize in treating and managing diseases of the female reproductive system, including postmenopausal bleeding. Postmenopausal bleeding can indicate serious conditions such as endometrial cancer, which a gynecologist can evaluate and manage. A radiologist primarily evaluates X-rays and imaging studies, not directly involved in managing gynecological issues. A physiatrist is a specialist in physical medicine and rehabilitation, not related to gynecological concerns. An oncologist specializes in diagnosing and treating cancer, which is not the primary concern in this case of postmenopausal bleeding.
Question 5 of 5
Health promotion activities are designed to help clients:
Correct Answer: D
Rationale: Health promotion activities encompass a broad range of interventions aimed at enhancing overall well-being. These activities not only focus on reducing the risk of illness but also on maintaining maximal function and promoting healthy habits related to healthcare.
Therefore, the correct answer is 'all of the above.'
Choices A, B, and C are all integral components of health promotion strategies, emphasizing the multidimensional approach required to support clients in achieving optimal health outcomes.
