Female Reproductive System NCLEX Questions Questions
Extract:
Question 1 of 5
The client diagnosed with cancer of the testes calls and tells the nurse he is having low back pain that does not go away with acetaminophen, a nonnarcotic analgesic. Which action should the nurse implement?
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: Low back pain in testicular cancer may indicate metastasis (e.g., to retroperitoneal nodes); HCP evaluation is urgent. NSAIDs, assuming metastasis, or exercises are inappropriate without assessment.
Question 2 of 5
Which action by the nurse is most appropriate?
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: Allowing the client's partner to stay respects the client's preference and provides emotional support, as long as the client consents and privacy is maintained.
Question 3 of 5
The client who has had a mastectomy tells the nurse, 'My husband will leave me now since I am not a whole woman anymore.' Which response by the nurse is most therapeutic?
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: Reflecting the client’s fear validates her emotions and encourages discussion, a therapeutic approach. Gratitude dismisses feelings, support groups are premature, and reassurance without exploration is less effective.
Question 4 of 5
The client had a mastectomy for cancer of the breast and asks the nurse about a TRAM flap procedure. Which information should the nurse explain to the client?
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: TRAM flap uses abdominal tissue for breast reconstruction. Saline sacs describe implants, mouth tissue isn’t used for nipples, and breast size is limited by available tissue.
Question 5 of 5
Which intervention for applying antiembolism stockings is most appropriate to include in the client's care plan?
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: Removing and reapplying stockings twice daily ensures skin inspection and hygiene while maintaining continuous compression to prevent thrombosis.
