ATI Medsurg Proctored Final Exam Questions

Extract:


Question 1 of 5

A nurse is caring for a client who is experiencing menopausal symptoms and asks the nurse about menopausal hormone therapy (HT). The nurse should inform the client that HT is not recommended due to which of the following findings in the client's medical history?

Correct Answer: A

Rationale: The correct answer is A: History of breast cancer. Menopausal hormone therapy (HT) is contraindicated in women with a history of breast cancer due to the potential risk of hormone-dependent cancer recurrence. Hormones can stimulate the growth of estrogen-sensitive breast cancer cells, increasing the risk of cancer recurrence.
Therefore, it is crucial for the nurse to inform the client with a history of breast cancer that HT is not recommended.

Choices B, C, and D are not directly contraindications for HT in menopausal clients, as long as these conditions are well-controlled and monitored.
