Extract:
Question 1 of 5
When applying an external catheter to a male client, which action by the nurse is correct?
Correct Answer: C
Rationale: Leaving space between the penis and the catheter's drainage end prevents pressure and irritation, ensuring proper function and comfort.
Question 2 of 5
The nurse is caring for a client with chronic pyelonephritis. Which assessment data support the diagnosis of chronic pyelonephritis?
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: Chronic pyelonephritis presents with subtle symptoms like fatigue, headaches, and polyuria due to long-term renal damage. Acute symptoms (fever, chills) are more typical of acute pyelonephritis. Strep or pneumonia are unrelated.
Question 3 of 5
Which menu choice is best for the nurse to recommend?
Correct Answer: C
Rationale: Chicken breast on lettuce is low in sodium, making it suitable for a low-sodium diet required for glomerulonephritis management.
Question 4 of 5
The nurse is developing a plan of care for a client diagnosed with ARF. Which statement is an appropriate outcome for the client?
Correct Answer: C
Rationale: An appropriate outcome for ARF is achieving normal electrolyte levels, as imbalances like hyperkalemia are common. Monitoring intake/output and administering enemas are interventions, not outcomes, and pain reduction is less specific to ARF.
Question 5 of 5
When the client complains about the bland taste of the food, the nurse appropriately recommends substituting salt with a bloodiness?
Correct Answer: D
Rationale: Lemon juice is a low-sodium flavor enhancer, suitable for a sodium-restricted diet, unlike catsup, mustard, or soy sauce.
