Female Reproductive NCLEX Questions

Extract:

Question 1 of 5

The client has an infected Bartholin’s cyst and the HCP has performed an incision and drainage (I&D) of the area. Which discharge instructions should the nurse teach the client?

Correct Answer: A

Rationale: Completing antibiotics prevents recurrence of infection post-I&D. Drainage is expected, water avoidance is impractical, and prone positioning is unnecessary.

Question 2 of 5

Which client has the highest risk for developing cancer of the testicles?

A. The client diagnosed with epididymitis. B. The client born with cryptorchidism. C. The client with an enlarged prostate. D. The client diagnosed with hypospadias.

Correct Answer: B

Rationale: Cryptorchidism (undescended testis) significantly increases testicular cancer risk due to abnormal testicular development. Epididymitis, enlarged prostate, and hypospadias are not strong risk factors.

Question 3 of 5

The office manager schedules a mandatory staff meeting for all nursing personnel. As the nurse enters the room, several documents containing the client's name, medical records number, mammogram results, and diagnosis are found unattended on the table. Which nursing actions are appropriate in this situation? Select all that apply.

A. Notify housekeeping to come and dispose of the papers. B. Toss the papers in the trash. C. Put the papers into the shredder bin. D. Try to determine who left the papers unattended. E. State the papers neatly, placing them off to the side. F. Notify the office manager of the breach in confidentiality.

Correct Answer: C,F

Rationale: Shredding the papers ensures secure disposal of protected health information (PHI), and notifying the office manager addresses the confidentiality breach, as required by HIPAA regulations.

Question 4 of 5

The nurse is caring for a young adult client who has been diagnosed with gonorrhea. Which statement reflects an understanding of the transmission of sexually transmitted diseases?

A. Only lower socioeconomic income people are at risk for gonorrhea and syphilis. B. The longer a client waits to become sexually active, the greater the risk for an STD. C. Females can transmit infectious diseases more rapidly than males. D. If a client is diagnosed with an STD, the client should be evaluated for other STDs.

Correct Answer: D

Rationale: STD diagnosis warrants screening for co-infections (e.g., chlamydia, HIV) due to shared risk behaviors. Socioeconomic status, delayed sexual activity, and gender transmission rates are misconceptions.

Question 5 of 5

What intervention should the nurse implement for a client diagnosed with a rectocele?

A. Limit oral intake to decrease voiding. B. Encourage a low-residue diet. C. Administer a stool softener daily. D. Arrange for the client to take sitz baths.

Correct Answer: C

Rationale: Stool softeners prevent straining during bowel movements, reducing rectocele pressure. Limiting intake is inappropriate, low-residue diets increase constipation risk, and sitz baths are less specific.
