Question 1 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 2 of 5
The client has failed to conceive after many attempts over a three (3)-year time period and asks the nurse, 'I have tried everything. What should I do now?' Which statement is the nurse’s best response?
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: Referring to an infertility specialist is proactive, addressing potential medical causes. Emotional support is secondary, adoption is premature, and blaming nerves is unhelpful.
Question 3 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.
Question 4 of 5
Which breast palpation technique is most correct?
Correct Answer: D
Rationale: Using the pads of the fingertips allows for better sensitivity to detect lumps or changes in breast tissue during palpation, making it the most effective technique for BSE.

Although it has not been conclusively proven, the nurse explains that some women with fibrocystic disease get relief from their symptoms by eliminating which substance from their diet?
