Extract:
Question 1 of 5
A nurse is caring for a client who practices Orthodox Judaism. The nurse should identify that which of the following foods together on the same dinner tray violates the client's religious practices?
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: The correct answer is A. According to Orthodox Judaism dietary laws, meat and dairy products cannot be consumed together or even served on the same plate.
Therefore, having kosher roast beef (meat) and ice cream (dairy) on the same dinner tray violates the client's religious practices. Carrot sticks and cottage cheese are both dairy and can be consumed together. Macaroni and cheese is a dairy dish but does not violate the rule as it contains only dairy ingredients. Kosher chicken breast and boiled potatoes are both meat products and can be served together without violating the dietary laws.
Question 2 of 5
A provider prescribes isometric exercises for a client who has a knee injury. The nurse should instruct the client to expect which of the following results from completing these exercises regularly?
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: The correct answer is A because isometric exercises involve contracting muscles without movement, which helps increase muscle strength and tone, reducing muscle wasting. This type of exercise is beneficial for individuals with knee injuries to maintain muscle mass and prevent atrophy.
Choice B is incorrect because isometric exercises do not typically lead to muscle hypertrophy.
Choice C is incorrect because isometric exercises actually promote blood flow and can help prevent venous stasis.
Choice D is incorrect because isometric exercises primarily target muscles, not bones, so they do not directly impact bone density.
Question 3 of 5
A nurse is caring for a client whose belongings were lost in a hurricane. The client says, 'What's the use in starting over? It will probably happen again.' Which of the following responses should the nurse make?
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: Acknowledging feelings of hopelessness is therapeutic and encourages the client to express emotions.
Question 4 of 5
During a change-of-shift report, a nurse sees that a client's IV bag of 0.9% sodium chloride has 900 mL of fluid left in it. The nurse makes rounds 30 min later and notes that the IV bag is empty. Which of the following actions should the nurse take?
Correct Answer: C
Rationale: A rapid infusion of IV fluid can cause fluid overload, leading to respiratory distress. Checking respiratory status helps assess for complications.
Question 5 of 5
A nurse on a medical unit is caring for a client who requires seizure precautions. Which of the following interventions should the nurse contribute to the client's plan of care?
Correct Answer: C
Rationale:
Correct Answer: C - Keep the client's bed in the lowest position.
Rationale: Keeping the client's bed in the lowest position is important for safety during a seizure. Lowering the bed reduces the risk of injury if the client were to fall during a seizure episode. It also helps facilitate easier access for healthcare providers to assist the client during and after a seizure.
Summary of Incorrect
Choices:
A: Restrain the client as soon as seizure activity begins - Restraint can increase the risk of injury and is not recommended during a seizure.
B: Keep the lights on when the client is sleeping - Bright lights can trigger seizures in some individuals and may disrupt the client's sleep.
D: Have a padded tongue depressor available at the bedside - A padded tongue depressor is not a standard intervention for seizure precautions and does not directly contribute to client safety during a seizure.
