Extract:
Question 1 of 5
The nurse is preparing a client for surgery who says it is against their religion to accept blood transfusions. Which of the following statements would be most appropriate?
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: The client has the right to refuse treatments or procedures, such as a blood transfusion, for religious reasons, and the nurse should confirm this.
Question 2 of 5
Which condition is associated with inadequate intake of vitamin C?
Correct Answer: D
Rationale: Scurvy is associated with inadequate intake of vitamin C. The remaining choices refer to other nutritional deficiencies.
Question 3 of 5
When documenting in the client's record, what type of information should be recorded?
Correct Answer: C
Rationale: Objective, factual information should be recorded in the client's chart.
Question 4 of 5
While documenting on a paper form, the nurse realizes they have made a mistake writing the progress note. What should the nurse do?
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: If a mistake has been made, it should be corrected with a line through the mistake along with the nurse's initials and the date and time. Whiteout or a black marker that fully covers up the previous documentation is not as legally defensible and is not necessary.
Question 5 of 5
Which is the best way to position a client's neck for palpation of the thyroid?
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: Flexing the neck toward the side being examined relaxes the sternocleidomastoid muscle, making the thyroid gland more accessible for palpation.
