Extract:
Question 1 of 5
A nurse is collecting data from a female client during an initial health assessment. Which of the following findings should the nurse identify as a risk factor for osteoporosis?
Correct Answer: D
Rationale: Long-term corticosteroid use, like beclomethasone, increases osteoporosis risk. Estrogen, sardines, and walking support bone health.
Question 2 of 5
A nurse is collecting data from an older adult client. Which of the following findings should indicate to the nurse that the client has a bladder infection?
Correct Answer: C
Rationale: Changed mental status, especially in older adults, suggests a bladder infection. Normal temperature, WBC, and reflexes don't confirm infection.
Question 3 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 4 of 5
A nurse is reinforcing teaching with a client who is scheduled to have a colonoscopy. Which of the following information should the nurse include in the teaching?
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: Moderate sedation ensures comfort during colonoscopy. Patients lie on the left side, clear liquids are required, and bowel prep is taken cold or at room temperature.
Question 5 of 5
A nurse is reviewing the results of a client's fecal occult blood screening test. Which of the following findings from the client's history should the nurse identify as potentially causing a false-positive result?
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: Ibuprofen can cause GI bleeding, leading to a false-positive fecal occult blood test. Breast cancer, citrus juice, and past hemorrhoidectomy don't affect results.
