Question 1 of 5
A nurse is caring for a client and observes that the client's urine is dark amber,cloudy and has an unpleasant odor. The nurse should recognize that these findings are associated with which of the following?
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: Dark amber cloudy and unpleasant-smelling urine indicate a urinary tract infection due to bacterial growth. Retention incontinence and frequency do not typically cause these urine characteristics.
Question 2 of 5
A client 80 years of age experienced dysphagia (impaired swallowing) in the weeks following a recent stroke,but the care team wishes to now begin introducing minced and pureed food. How should the nurse best position the client?
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: Semi-Fowlers positioning with the head of the bed elevated at a 30 to 45 degree angle is recommended for clients with dysphagia to prevent aspiration and promote effective swallowing. Supine increases aspiration risk and Low-Fowlers or Fowlers are less optimal for swallowing safety.
Question 3 of 5
Upon assessment of the urine in a client's indwelling urinary catheter drain bag,the nurse notes the urine to be dark yellow. Which next step should the nurse implement?
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: Dark yellow urine suggests concentrated urine likely from dehydration so encouraging fluid intake is appropriate. Reducing intake worsens dehydration dark yellow alone doesn’t indicate infection and action is needed.
