Extract:


Question 1 of 5

A nurse is caring for a client who has a head injury. The client states they fell off a ladder while painting approximately 2 hours ago and lost consciousness for 45 minutes according to their partner. The nurse should determine that the client is experiencing which of the following classifications of traumatic brain injury?

Correct Answer: A

Rationale: The correct answer is A: Moderate. This classification is determined based on the client's history of falling off a ladder, losing consciousness for 45 minutes, and having a head injury within the last 2 hours. A moderate traumatic brain injury involves a loss of consciousness for more than 30 minutes but less than 24 hours. Severe traumatic brain injury involves loss of consciousness for more than 24 hours. Mild traumatic brain injury typically involves a loss of consciousness for less than 30 minutes. The other choices are incorrect because the client's history clearly indicates a moderate level of traumatic brain injury based on the duration of loss of consciousness.
