Emergency Nursing NCLEX Questions Questions
Extract:
Question 1 of 5
The ED nurse is caring for a client who had a severe allergic reaction to a bee sting. Which discharge instructions should the nurse discuss with the client?
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: A medical ID bracelet alerts others to the allergy, critical for future emergencies.
Topical steroids don’t prevent anaphylaxis, IV epinephrine is hospital-based, and bright colors attract insects.
Question 2 of 5
The nurse is discharging a client diagnosed with accidental carbon monoxide poisoning. Which statement made by the client indicates the need for further teaching?
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: Bright-red lips indicate CO poisoning, not health, requiring further teaching. Detectors, odorlessness, and furnace checks are correct preventive measures.
Question 3 of 5
The nurse is teaching a class on biological warfare. Which information should the nurse include in the presentation?
Correct Answer: D
Rationale: Biological weapons are easily obtained (e.g., anthrax) and cause high mortality, making them a significant threat. Water is not the only transmission route, vaccines are limited, and biological threats rival chemical ones.
Question 4 of 5
Which equipment must be immediately brought to the client’s bedside when a code is called for a client who has experienced a cardiac arrest?
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: A crash cart contains defibrillator, medications, and airway equipment, essential for cardiac arrest. Ventilator, gurney, and oxygen are secondary or supportive.
Question 5 of 5
The triage nurse has placed a disaster tag on the client. Which action warrants immediate intervention by the nurse?
Correct Answer: C
Rationale: Removing the disaster tag disrupts identification and tracking, requiring intervention. Documentation, vital signs, and attachment are appropriate.
