Question 1 of 5
The client with possible renal calculi is scheduled for a renal ultrasound. Which intervention should the nurse implement for this procedure?
Correct Answer: D
Rationale: Renal ultrasound is noninvasive, painless, and requires minimal preparation. Explaining this reduces anxiety. No contrast (iodine) is used, NPO is unnecessary, and informed consent is not typically required.
Question 2 of 5
After inserting an indwelling catheter into a male client, which technique is most appropriate for stabilizing the catheter to avoid damage to the penis?
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: Taping the catheter to the abdomen stabilizes it without causing traction or damage to the penis, promoting comfort and safety.
Question 3 of 5

Correct Answer: B
Rationale: Elevating the scrotum is a simple supportive task within the UAP’s scope. Adjusting irrigation, changing dressings, and teaching require nursing judgment and are not delegable.
Question 4 of 5
