NCLEX RN Psychosocial Integrity Questions

Extract:


Question 1 of 5

A newborn male infant is diagnosed with an undescended testicle (cryptorchidism), and these findings are shared with the parents. The parents ask questions about the condition. The nurse should respond to the parents that which condition can occur and have a psychosocial impact if the undescended testicle is not corrected?

Correct Answer: B

Rationale: Infertility can occur in males with this condition because proper function of the testes in producing fertile sperm depends on a temperature of less than 98.6°F (37.0°
C). The psychological effects of an 'empty scrotum' could affect the client's perception of self and the ability to reproduce. Options 1 and 3 are possible physical consequences of a failure to treat cryptorchidism rather than psychosocial consequences. Because all of the hormones that are responsible for secondary sex characteristics continue to be secreted directly into the bloodstream, option 4 is not correct.
