Extract:
Question 1 of 5
A nurse is caring for a client who recently gave birth to her first child. The newborn is crying, and the client states, 'I can't seem to do anything right. What should I do?' Which of the following responses should the nurse make?
Correct Answer: D
Rationale: Showing the mother how to swaddle and cuddle the baby, then letting her try is correct. This approach provides practical guidance and empowers the mother, helping her build confidence in her ability to care for her newborn.
Question 2 of 5
A nurse is reinforcing teaching with a client who has a new prescription for a fluticasone inhaler. Which of the following instructions should the nurse include?
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: Rinsing the mouth after using a fluticasone inhaler prevents oral thrush, a common side effect of inhaled corticosteroids.
Question 3 of 5
A nurse is reinforcing teaching with a client who has a new prescription for a progesterone injection. Which of the following instructions should the nurse include?
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: Rotating injection sites for progesterone injections prevents tissue irritation and ensures consistent absorption.
Question 4 of 5
A nurse overhears two assistive personnel (AP) in the nurses' station discussing a client who was recently admitted. Which of the following actions should the nurse take?
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: Telling the APs to stop the conversation is correct. Discussing client information in a public area violates HIPAA (Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act) privacy regulations. The nurse should immediately intervene and remind the APs about maintaining client confidentiality.
Question 5 of 5
A nurse is collecting data from a client who uses a continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) machine at night for sleep apnea. The nurse should identify which of the following findings as an indication of proper CPAP use?
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: There is one finger width between the strap on the mask and the client's face is correct. A properly fitted CPAP mask should have a snug fit, with a space of about one finger width between the strap and the face to ensure adequate seal and comfort. A mask that is too tight can cause discomfort, while a loose mask may not provide the necessary pressure to treat sleep apnea.
