Extract:
Question 1 of 5
A nurse is assisting with the care of a client who is receiving a blood transfusion. Which of the following findings should the nurse report to the provider immediately?
Correct Answer: D
Rationale: Itching and hives signal a transfusion reaction (e.g., allergic), requiring immediate cessation and reporting. Mild fever, normal HR, and RR are less urgent.
Question 2 of 5
A nurse is reinforcing teaching with a client who is scheduled for a colonoscopy. Which of the following statements should the nurse include?
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: Cramping is common post-colonoscopy due to air insufflation. No food is allowed prior, it's done lying down, and bright blood isn't expected.
Question 3 of 5
A nurse is assisting with the care of a client who is receiving oxygen via nasal cannula at 2 L/min. Which of the following actions should the nurse take?
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: Kink-free tubing ensures oxygen flow. Petroleum risks aspiration, supine isn't needed, and taping varies.
Question 4 of 5
A nurse is collecting data from a client who is at 12 weeks of gestation. Which of the following actions should the nurse take?
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: At 12 weeks, fetal heart tones are audible via Doppler. Leopold maneuvers are later (third trimester), reflexes check preeclampsia, and catheterization isn't routine.
Question 5 of 5
A nurse is assisting with the care of a client who is postoperative following an appendectomy. Which of the following findings should the nurse report to the provider?
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: A fever of 38.3°C post-op suggests infection, needing reporting. Normal HR, healing incision, and moderate pain are expected.
