ATI LPN Comprehensive Predictor 2023 Exam 3 Questions
Extract:
Question 1 of 5
A nurse is contributing to the plan of care for a client who is experiencing delirium. Which of the following interventions should the nurse recommend?
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: Frequent orientation to time and place reduces confusion in delirium. Multiple choices can overwhelm, discussing fears supports emotional needs, and consistent caregivers minimize disorientation.
Question 2 of 5
A nurse is caring for a client who is 2 days postoperative following an above-the-knee amputation. Which of the following actions should the nurse take to promote progression toward independence and mobility for the client?
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: Using an overbed trapeze builds upper body strength, aiding independent repositioning. Abduction, avoiding prone positions, or loose dressings don't directly enhance mobility.
Question 3 of 5
A nurse is caring for a client who has a prescription for NPH insulin 10 units and regular insulin 15 units subcutaneously. After injecting 10 units of air into the NPH insulin vial, which of the following actions should the nurse take next?
Correct Answer: D
Rationale: Injecting air into the regular insulin vial follows the sequence for mixing insulins (air into NPH, air into regular, withdraw regular, then NPH), preventing contamination and ensuring accurate dosing.
Question 4 of 5
A nurse in an acute care setting is assisting in collecting client information to include in a referral for a physical therapist. Which of the following information should the nurse plan to include?
Correct Answer: C
Rationale: Physical assessment findings like mobility or pain are critical for a physical therapist to develop a tailored plan. Family history, insurance, or past medications are less relevant.
Question 5 of 5
A nurse at an outpatient clinic receives a call from a client who reports experiencing syncope after starting a new prescription for enalapril. Which of the following instructions should the nurse give the client?
Correct Answer: D
Rationale: Enalapril can cause hypotension, leading to syncope. Rising slowly prevents sudden blood pressure drops. Potassium, pulse-based withholding, or fluid reduction aren't directly related.
