Extract:
Question 1 of 5
When obtaining a sexual history from this client, which question is most important for the nurse to ask?
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: Asking about partner symptoms helps identify potential sources of infection and guides contact tracing, critical for STI management.
Question 2 of 5
The client who had a right modified radical mastectomy four (4) years before is being admitted for a cardiac work-up for chest pain. Which intervention is most important for the nurse to implement?
Correct Answer: C
Rationale: Post-mastectomy, the affected arm is at risk for lymphedema; avoiding venipuncture or BP on that arm is critical. Chemotherapy history is less urgent, Adriamycin relates to cardiotoxicity but not immediate care, and chest wall exam is secondary.
Question 3 of 5
The client is diagnosed with a rectovaginal fistula which is to be managed medically. Which information should the nurse teach the client prior to discharge?
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: A low-residue diet reduces fecal output, aiding healing of a rectovaginal fistula. Douching risks infection, ice packs are ineffective, and binders are unrelated.
Question 4 of 5
Which breast palpation technique is most correct?
Correct Answer: D
Rationale: Using the pads of the fingertips allows for better sensitivity to detect lumps or changes in breast tissue during palpation, making it the most effective technique for BSE.
Question 5 of 5
The client diagnosed with testicular cancer is scheduled for a unilateral orchiectomy. Which information is important to teach regarding sexual functioning?
Correct Answer: D
Rationale: Unilateral orchiectomy typically preserves libido and orgasm, as one testis maintains hormonal function. Ejaculation issues, hormone therapy, or penile implants are not standard post-surgery.
