Extract:
Question 1 of 5
The client has undergone a wedge resection for cancer of the left breast. Which discharge instruction should the nurse teach?
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: Limiting lifting with the affected arm prevents strain and lymphedema risk post-wedge resection. Claiming cancer is fully removed is misleading, Hemovac drains are uncommon in lumpectomy, and reconstruction is not universally needed.
Question 2 of 5
Which laboratory test should the nurse expect for the client to rule out the diagnosis of syphilis?
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: RPR-CT is a standard screening test for syphilis, detecting antibodies. Vaginal cultures, Gram stains, and immunological assays are not specific for syphilis.
Question 3 of 5
The nurse is admitting a client diagnosed with Stage Ia cancer of the cervix to an outpatient surgery center for a conization. Which data would the client most likely report?
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: Stage Ia cervical cancer is often asymptomatic, detected via Pap smear or biopsy. Watery discharge, dyspareunia, and itching are more associated with advanced stages or infections.
Question 4 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 5 of 5
The nurse writes a client problem of 'anxiety related to potential sexual dysfunction' for a client diagnosed with cancer of the prostate. Which intervention should the nurse implement?
Correct Answer: D
Rationale: A private area facilitates open discussion of sexual dysfunction fears, reducing anxiety. HCP referral, spousal discussion, or false reassurance are less therapeutic.
