Question 1 of 5
Before the physician performs the vaginal examination, which nursing intervention is most important?
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: Having a female nurse present ensures the client's comfort and adheres to ethical standards, providing a chaperone during the examination.
Question 2 of 5
The nurse is formulating a care plan for a client post-abdominal hysterectomy. Which nursing diagnosis is appropriate for the client who has developed a complication?
Correct Answer: C
Rationale: Intestinal obstruction is a common complication post-abdominal hysterectomy due to adhesions or ileus. Urinary retention and fluid imbalance are risks but less specific, and nerve damage is rare.
Question 3 of 5
The client is diagnosed with a rectovaginal fistula which is to be managed medically. Which information should the nurse teach the client prior to discharge?
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: A low-residue diet reduces fecal output, aiding healing of a rectovaginal fistula. Douching risks infection, ice packs are ineffective, and binders are unrelated.
Question 4 of 5
The 30-year-old male client diagnosed with germinal cell carcinoma of the testes asks the nurse, 'What chance do I have? Should I end it all now?' Which response by the nurse indicates an understanding of the disease process?
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: Germinal cell carcinoma has a high cure rate with treatment (e.g., orchiectomy, chemotherapy), offering good survival chances. Religious references, pessimism, or vague statistics are less appropriate.

When the client asks how this condition will affect him sexually, which response by the nurse is most appropriate?
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: An undescended testicle, if corrected, typically has minimal impact on sexual function or masculinity, especially if addressed early.
