Female Reproductive System NCLEX Questions

Extract:

Question 1 of 5

Which statement best describes the responsibility of the public health nurse regarding sexually transmitted diseases?

Correct Answer: C

Rationale: Public health nurses educate clients on legal reporting requirements for STDs, ensuring compliance. Partner notification is often handled by health departments, treatment is physician-driven, and statistical analysis is secondary.

Question 2 of 5

Which action by the nurse is most appropriate?

A. Allow the client's partner to stay in the examination room. B. Ask the client's friend to remain in the waiting room. C. Ask the physician to make the decision in this situation. D. Suggest that the friend wait outside the examination room door.

Correct Answer: A

Rationale: Allowing the client's partner to stay respects the client's preference and provides emotional support, as long as the client consents and privacy is maintained.

Question 3 of 5

The client had a mastectomy for cancer of the breast and asks the nurse about a TRAM flap procedure. Which information should the nurse explain to the client?

A. The surgeon will insert a saline-filled sac under the skin to simulate a breast. B. The surgeon will pull the client's own tissue under the skin to create a breast. C. The surgeon will use tissue from inside the mouth to make a nipple. D. The surgeon can make the breast any size the client wants the breast to be.

Correct Answer: B

Rationale: TRAM flap uses abdominal tissue for breast reconstruction. Saline sacs describe implants, mouth tissue isn’t used for nipples, and breast size is limited by available tissue.

Question 4 of 5

The young female client is admitted with pelvic inflammatory disease secondary to a chlamydia infection. Which discharge instruction should be taught to the client?

A. The client will develop antibodies to protect against a future infection. B. This infection will not have any long-term effects for the client. C. Both the client and the sexual partner must be treated simultaneously. D. Once the infection subsides, the pain will go away and not be a problem.

Correct Answer: C

Rationale: Chlamydia-related PID requires simultaneous treatment of the client and partner to prevent reinfection. Antibodies do not confer immunity, PID can cause infertility, and pain may persist.

Question 5 of 5

When carrying out this intervention, which action is most appropriate?

A. Apply ice to the site in a sealed plastic bag. B. Place a covered ice pack to the scrotum. C. Position the client on a hypothermia blanket. D. Seat the client on an ice-filled ring.

Correct Answer: B

Rationale: A covered ice pack reduces swelling and pain in the scrotum safely and effectively post-hydrocele aspiration.
