Question 1 of 5

When teaching a woman about possible side effects of hormone replacement therapy, the nurse should include information about all of the following except:

Correct Answer: A

Rationale: The correct answer is 'Hypoglycemia in diabetic women.' When educating a woman about hormone replacement therapy, it is important to discuss the possible side effects. It is true that monthly menses might return when taking combination hormones, as the progestin can cause this. Additionally, there is an increased risk of gallbladder disease associated with hormone replacement therapy. Furthermore, long-term use of hormone replacement therapy is linked to an increased risk of breast, cervical, and ovarian cancer. However, hypoglycemia is not a common side effect of hormone replacement therapy, especially in diabetic women. In fact, estrogen can have a positive impact on glucose control in some cases, so hypoglycemia would not be a typical concern.

Question 2 of 5

When a client who is 25 years of age asks the nurse when she should seek fertility counseling, the best response by the nurse is:

Correct Answer: D

Rationale: The best response in this scenario is to offer immediate guidance while also indicating when fertility counseling should be sought. While
Choice A is technically correct as guidelines recommend seeking fertility counseling after 1 year of unprotected intercourse, it lacks providing immediate guidance.
Choice B suggests seeking counseling after 6-9 months, which is earlier than the standard recommendation of 1 year.
Choice C mentions the average time to conceive for someone of the client's age without addressing the client's current concern.
Therefore,
Choice D is the most appropriate response as it offers immediate guidance along with a plan for referral if needed.

Question 3 of 5

What ethical obligations do professional nurses have according to the ANA Code of Ethics for Nurses?

Correct Answer: D

Rationale: The correct answer is 'all of the above.' According to the ANA Code of Ethics for Nurses, professional nurses have ethical obligations to patients (clients), the nursing profession, and providing high-quality care. These elements are fundamental principles outlined in the code of ethics to guide nurses in their practice.
Choice A is correct as nurses prioritize the well-being and care of their patients.
Choice B is correct as nurses are expected to uphold the values and integrity of the nursing profession.
Choice C is correct as providing high-quality care is a core ethical obligation of nurses.
Therefore, all the choices align with the ANA Code of Ethics for Nurses.

Question 4 of 5

Which of the following methods of contraception is able to reduce the transmission of HIV and other STDs?

Correct Answer: D

Rationale: The correct answer is the vaginal sponge. The vaginal sponge, when used with foam or jelly contraception, acts as a barrier method that can reduce the transmission of HIV and other STDs, in addition to preventing pregnancy. In contrast, IUDs, Norplant, and oral contraceptives are effective in preventing pregnancy but do not provide protection against the transmission of HIV and STDs. IUDs prevent pregnancy by affecting sperm movement and survival, Norplant releases hormones to prevent ovulation, and oral contraceptives work by inhibiting ovulation. However, these methods do not create a physical barrier against HIV and STD transmission. It is important to counsel clients using methods like IUDs, Norplant, and oral contraceptives to also use chemical or barrier contraceptives to lower the risk of HIV or STD transmission.

Question 5 of 5

What is the most appropriate intervention for a client with suspected genitourinary trauma and visible blood at the urethral meatus?

Correct Answer: D

Rationale: A urologist consult is the most appropriate intervention for a client with visible blood at the urethral meatus and suspected genitourinary trauma. This specialist can evaluate the extent of the trauma and provide the necessary treatment. Foley catheter insertion (
Choice
A) and in-and-out catheter specimen for urinalysis (
Choice
B) are contraindicated in the presence of genitourinary trauma as they can worsen the injury. While a voided urine specimen for urinalysis (
Choice
C) may be ordered by the physician, it does not address the specific management needed for genitourinary trauma.
Therefore, a urologist consult is the best option in this scenario.
