Question 1 of 5
A nurse is evaluating a client's neurosensory system. To evaluate stereognosis, she would ask the client to close his eyes & identify which of the following items?
Correct Answer: D
Rationale: The correct answer is D: A familiar object she places in his hand. Stereognosis is the ability to recognize objects by touch without visual cues. By asking the client to identify a familiar object placed in his hand with his eyes closed, the nurse is testing his ability to perceive and interpret tactile sensations. This assessment helps evaluate the client's sensory perception and integration in the neurosensory system. The other choices are incorrect because they do not specifically assess stereognosis.
Choice A involves auditory perception, choice B involves tactile perception but not recognition of objects, and choice C involves vibratory perception rather than object recognition through touch.
