Extract:
Question 1 of 5
The nurse correctly teaches a couple that immediately after a vasectomy, it is best to continue using an alternative birth control method for which time period?
Correct Answer: C
Rationale: Sperm may remain in the vas deferens for up to 12 weeks post-vasectomy, requiring alternative contraception until azoospermia is confirmed.
Question 2 of 5
The nurse is formulating a care plan for a client post-abdominal hysterectomy. Which nursing diagnosis is appropriate for the client who has developed a complication?
Correct Answer: C
Rationale: Intestinal obstruction is a common complication post-abdominal hysterectomy due to adhesions or ileus. Urinary retention and fluid imbalance are risks but less specific, and nerve damage is rare.
Question 3 of 5
When the client asks how this condition will affect him sexually, which response by the nurse is most appropriate?
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: An undescended testicle, if corrected, typically has minimal impact on sexual function or masculinity, especially if addressed early.
Question 4 of 5
The client is diagnosed with benign uterine fibroid tumors. Which question should the nurse ask to determine if the client is experiencing a complication?
Correct Answer: D
Rationale: Pain location helps identify complications like fibroid degeneration or pressure on organs. Missed periods are common, shortness of breath is unrelated, and pregnancy history is less relevant.
Question 5 of 5
Which question is most important for the nurse to ask next?
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: Determining if the client has ever menstruated is critical to differentiate between primary amenorrhea (never menstruated) and secondary amenorrhea (cessation of periods), guiding further assessment.
