Question 1 of 5
A nurse is assessing a client's cranial nerves. Which of the following methods should the nurse use to assess cranial nerve II?
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: The correct answer is A: Ask the client to read a Snellen chart. Cranial nerve II is the optic nerve responsible for vision. By having the client read a Snellen chart, the nurse can assess visual acuity and detect any potential issues related to the optic nerve. This method directly tests the function of cranial nerve II.
Choices B, C, and D are incorrect because they do not specifically assess cranial nerve II. Clenching teeth (
B) tests cranial nerve V (trigeminal nerve), listening to speech (
C) assesses cranial nerves V (trigeminal), VII (facial), and XII (hypoglossal), and identifying scented aromas (
D) tests cranial nerve I (olfactory nerve).
