Extract:
Question 1 of 5
When the nurse is advising the client about the potential complications associated with peritoneal dialysis, which complication is most important to include?
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: Abdominal peritonitis is a significant and common complication of peritoneal dialysis due to the risk of infection.
Question 2 of 5
The elderly client recovering from a prostatectomy has been experiencing stress incontinence. Which independent nursing intervention should the nurse discuss with the client?
Correct Answer: D
Rationale: A bladder drill with timed voiding strengthens bladder control and reduces stress incontinence post-prostatectomy. Voiding every 2 hours is part of it, family assistance reduces independence, and electrical stimulators are not standard.
Question 3 of 5
The nurse is discussing kidney transplants with clients at a dialysis center. Which population is less likely to participate in organ donation?
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: African Americans are statistically less likely to participate in organ donation due to cultural beliefs, mistrust in healthcare systems, and lower registration rates. Other groups have higher participation rates, though disparities exist across all populations.
Question 4 of 5
Which symptom indicative of renal failure would the nurse expect to note when assessing this client?
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: Anemia is a common symptom of renal failure due to decreased erythropoietin production by the kidneys.
Question 5 of 5
Which intervention should the nurse include when preparing a teaching plan for the client with chronic prostatitis?
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: Warm sitz baths reduce inflammation and pain in chronic prostatitis. Elevating feet is unrelated, tea/coffee are bladder irritants, and stopping antibiotics early risks recurrence.
