Question 1 of 5
A nurse is providing teaching about increasing dietary fiber to an antepartum client who reports constipation. Which of the following food selections has the highest fiber content per cup?
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: Lentils provide about 15.6 grams of fiber per cup, significantly higher than asparagus (2.8g), oatmeal (4g), or cabbage (2.9g). High fiber helps alleviate constipation, common in pregnancy.
Question 2 of 5
The nurse is assessing the patient's range of motion. The nurse asks the patient to circumduct his arms. When the patient asks what this means, the nurse explains:
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: Circumduction is a movement that involves the circular rotation of a limb, such as an arm or leg, around a fixed point. When assessing the patient's range of motion, the nurse may ask the patient to perform circumduction of their arms to evaluate their ability to move their arms in a circular motion.
Question 3 of 5
The nurse is assessing the patients sleep habits. Which of the patients responses indicate a need for the nurse to provide teaching?
Correct Answer: D
Rationale: Napping during the day can interfere with a person's ability to sleep at night, especially if it is done for long periods or close to bedtime. The nurse can provide education on proper sleep hygiene and recommend ways to establish a consistent sleep schedule that promotes restful sleep, such as avoiding caffeine and alcohol, practicing relaxation techniques, and limiting exposure to electronic devices before bedtime.
Question 4 of 5
When assessing the abdomen, the nurse would expect to auscultate which sounds?
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: When assessing the abdomen, the nurse would expect to auscultate bowel sounds, which are the sounds made by the movement of gas and fluid through the intestines. The normal bowel sounds are characterized as high-pitched, gurgling, and occurring at a rate of 5-30 sounds per minute. Bruits are abnormal sounds indicating turbulent blood flow and are usually assessed in other areas of the body, such as the epigastric and renal arteries, as well as in the aorta. Friction rubs are also abnormal sounds, but they are typically heard during auscultation of the heart and lungs. Low-pitched sonorous sounds are not typical sounds that are expected to be heard during an abdominal assessment.
Question 5 of 5
The nurse is conducting a psychosocial assessment. Which of the following would be included in this assessment? (Select all that apply)
Correct Answer: C,D
Rationale: The Mini-Mental Status Exam assesses cognitive function, and the Activities of Daily Living
Tool evaluates the patient's ability to perform daily tasks, both of which are components of a psychosocial assessment. The CAGE assessment is specific to alcohol use, and the Heinrich Fall Scale is related to fall risk, not psychosocial assessment.
