Female Reproductive NCLEX Questions Questions
Extract:
Question 1 of 5
What intervention should the nurse implement for a client diagnosed with a rectocele?
Correct Answer: C
Rationale: Stool softeners prevent straining during bowel movements, reducing rectocele pressure. Limiting intake is inappropriate, low-residue diets increase constipation risk, and sitz baths are less specific.
Question 2 of 5
Besides a mild analgesic such as ibuprofen (Motrin), which therapeutic interventions are most appropriate for the nurse to recommend? Select all that apply.
Correct Answer: C,E
Rationale: Heat application relaxes uterine muscles, reducing cramps, and massaging the lower abdomen can alleviate pain. Oral contraceptives require a prescription, tampons don't relieve cramps, reducing activity is unnecessary, and lying prone may not help.
Question 3 of 5
Which tumor marker information is used to follow the progress of a client diagnosed with testicular cancer?
Correct Answer: D
Rationale: hCG is a key tumor marker for testicular cancer, used to monitor disease progression and treatment response. CA-125 is for ovarian cancer, CEA is nonspecific, and DNA ploidy is not a marker.
Question 4 of 5
The nurse writes a problem of 'potential for complications related to ovarian hyperstimulation' for a client who is taking clomiphene (Clomid), an ovarian stimulant. Which intervention should be included in the plan of care?
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: Frequent pelvic sonograms monitor for ovarian hyperstimulation syndrome (OHSS), a clomiphene risk. Delaying intercourse, infusion therapy, and ectopic pregnancy are unrelated.
Question 5 of 5
The office manager schedules a mandatory staff meeting for all nursing personnel. As the nurse enters the room, several documents containing the client's name, medical records number, mammogram results, and diagnosis are found unattended on the table. Which nursing actions are appropriate in this situation? Select all that apply.
Correct Answer: C,F
Rationale: Shredding the papers ensures secure disposal of protected health information (PHI), and notifying the office manager addresses the confidentiality breach, as required by HIPAA regulations.
