Extract:
Question 1 of 5
A nurse is caring for a visually impaired client. What action should the nurse take when delivering the client's meal tray?
Correct Answer: D
Rationale: Describing food placement like a clock aids independence for visually impaired clients. Feeding assistance, discouraging conversation, and adaptive utensils are less helpful.
Question 2 of 5
A nurse is reinforcing teaching with a client who is 24 hours postoperative following a total hip arthroplasty. Which of the following instructions should the nurse include in the teaching?
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: Straight-backed chairs prevent hip dislocation post-arthroplasty. Moist heat risks infection, and hip adduction increases dislocation risk.
Question 3 of 5
A nurse is contributing to the plan of care for a client who has an external fixation device in place to treat an open fracture of the tibia and fibula. Which of the following interventions should the nurse include?
Correct Answer: C
Rationale: Pain medication before pin care reduces discomfort. Traction risks complications, neurovascular checks should be more frequent, and clamp adjustments are for specialists.
Question 4 of 5
A nurse is caring for a client who is at risk for anaphylaxis due to bee stings. When reinforcing teaching about the use of an automatic epinephrine injector, which of the following actions is the priority?
Correct Answer: C
Rationale: Seeking medical attention after epinephrine use is critical, as anaphylaxis requires further care. Reviewing signs, storage, and demonstration are secondary.
Question 5 of 5
A nurse is collecting data from a client who is experiencing opioid toxicity. Which of the following findings should the nurse expect?
Correct Answer: D
Rationale: Opioid toxicity causes respiratory depression and hypotension. Diaphoresis and chest pain are unrelated, and pupils constrict (miosis), not dilate.
