Question 1 of 5
The nurse is caring for a client newly diagnosed with Stage IV ovarian cancer. What is the scientific rationale for detecting the tumors at this stage?
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: Ovarian cancer is often diagnosed at Stage IV due to vague early symptoms and deep pelvic location, delaying detection. Regular exams, dysmenorrhea, or breast cancer history do not ensure early detection.

The client diagnosed with gestational diabetes delivered a 10-pound 5-ounce infant. Which is priority for the nursery nurse to monitor?
