ATI RN Fundamental Proctored Exam With NGN Graded Questions
Extract:
Question 1 of 5
A nurse educator is teaching a module on pharmacokinetics to a group of newly licensed nurses. Which of the following statements by a newly licensed nurse indicates an understanding of the 1st-pass effect?
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: The correct answer is B. The 1st-pass effect refers to the metabolism of a drug in the liver before it reaches systemic circulation. Administering drugs via nonenteral routes bypasses the liver, avoiding inactivation.
Choice A discusses receptor activity, not the 1st-pass effect.
Choice C relates to drug elimination, not the 1st-pass effect.
Choice D mentions safety margins, not drug metabolism.
Question 2 of 5
A nurse observes an AP reprimanding a client for not using the urinal properly. The AP tells him she will put a diaper on him if he does not use the urinal more carefully next time. Which of the following torts is the AP committing?
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: The correct answer is A: Assault. Assault is the act of intentionally causing someone to fear that they will be physically harmed. In this case, the AP's threat of putting a diaper on the client if he doesn't use the urinal properly next time constitutes an act of assault because it instills fear in the client.
Choice B, Battery, involves actual physical harm, which is not present in this scenario.
Choice C, False imprisonment, involves restricting someone's freedom of movement, which is not the case here.
Choice D, Invasion of privacy, refers to intruding into someone's private affairs, which is not relevant in this situation.
Question 3 of 5
A nurse is preparing an in-service program about delegation. Which of the following elements should she identify when presenting the 5 rights of delegation?
Correct Answer: B, C, E
Rationale: The correct answer is B, C, and E. Right supervision/evaluation ensures appropriate oversight, accountability, and feedback. Right direction/communication involves clear instructions and feedback. Right circumstances consider factors like workload, resources, and environment.
Choice A ("Right client") is incorrect as it is not one of the 5 rights of delegation.
Choice D ("Right time") is important but does not specifically fall under the 5 rights framework. In summary, choices B, C, and E are crucial elements that align with the principles of effective delegation, while choices A and D are not directly related to the concept of the 5 rights of delegation.
Question 4 of 5
A nurse is reviewing safety precautions with a group of young adults at a community health fair. Which of the following recommendations should the nurse include specifically for this age group? Select all.
Correct Answer: B, C, D
Rationale: The correct recommendations for young adults are wearing a helmet while skiing (
B), installing a carbon monoxide detector (
C), and securing firearms in a safe location (
D). Young adults are more likely to engage in risky activities like skiing, hence wearing a helmet is crucial for injury prevention. Carbon monoxide poisoning is a risk for all age groups, but young adults may be less aware of the dangers, making it important to install detectors. Additionally, young adults may have access to firearms, so securing them in a safe location is vital to prevent accidents or misuse. The other options (A, E) are more relevant for older adults to prevent falls, and may not be as critical for young adults who are more at risk for the mentioned activities.
Question 5 of 5
A nurse is caring for a client who is on bed rest. Which of the following interventions should the nurse implement to maintain the patency of the client's airway?
Correct Answer: D
Rationale: The correct answer is D: Promote incentive spirometer use. This intervention helps prevent atelectasis and maintain lung expansion in immobile clients. Isometric exercises (
A) are not directly related to airway patency. Suctioning (
B) every 8 hours is not necessary unless there are secretions. Low-dose heparin (
C) is used for preventing blood clots, not for airway maintenance.
