ATI RN
ATI Comprehensive 2024 Exit Exam with NGN Questions
Extract:
A nurse is teaching a prenatal class about infection prevention at a community center.
Question 1 of 5
Which of the following statements by a client indicates an understanding of the teaching?
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: Chickenpox sores crust over before becoming non-contagious.
Extract:
A nurse reviews the entries in the medical record.
Question 2 of 5
Which of the following actions should the nurse take? Select all that apply.
Correct Answer: A,B
Rationale: The correct actions are A and B. A second nurse confirming the information on the blood label ensures accuracy and prevents errors. Inserting a large bore IV catheter allows for rapid transfusion and prevents complications.
Choice C ensures informed consent but is not directly related to the transfusion process.
Choice D is incorrect because dextrose cannot be used to flush transfusion tubing.
Choice E is incorrect as it provides inaccurate information to the client.
Extract:
A nurse is reviewing a client's cardiac rhythm strips and notes a constant P.R interval of 0.35 seconds.
Question 3 of 5
Which of the following dysrhythmias is the client displaying?
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: The correct answer is A: First-degree atrioventricular block. This dysrhythmia is characterized by a delay in conduction at the atrioventricular node, causing a prolonged PR interval (>0.20 sec) on ECG. It is a benign condition and does not typically require treatment unless symptomatic.
Choices B and D are more serious dysrhythmias that have different ECG patterns and clinical implications. Complete heart block (
Choice
B) presents with a lack of conduction between the atria and ventricles, leading to a slow ventricular rate. Atrial fibrillation (
Choice
D) is characterized by rapid, irregular atrial depolarizations without effective atrial contractions. Premature atrial complexes (
Choice
C) are early ectopic atrial beats that appear as abnormal P waves on ECG but do not cause significant conduction delays.
Extract:

Correct Answer:
Rationale: Gout presents with elevated uric acid levels.
Extract:
A nurse is auscultating for crackles on a client who has pneumonia.
Question 5 of 5
Which of the following anterior chest wall locations should the nurse auscultate?(You will find hot spots to select in the artwork below. Select only the hot spot that corresponds to your answer.)
Correct Answer:
Rationale:
Correct Answer: D (Second intercostal space, right sternal border)
Rationale: The nurse should auscultate at the second intercostal space, right sternal border to listen to the aortic valve. This location corresponds to the area where the aortic valve can be best heard. The aortic valve is located in the second intercostal space, right sternal border, so auscultating at this spot allows for accurate assessment of the heart sounds in this area. It is essential to auscultate at this specific location to detect any abnormalities or abnormalities in the aortic valve.
Summary of other choices:
- A, B, C, E, F, G: These locations do not correspond to the specific area where the aortic valve is best heard. Auscultating at these locations may not provide clear or accurate heart sounds related to the aortic valve.
