Demo Quiz
Welcome to the Demo Quiz! Below, you will find numerous sample questions. This demo quiz is set up with questions and the question's answer with Answer reason.
The Correct Answer is Option C
A. Cover the cord with dry, sterile gauze
B. Place the client in high Fowler’s position
C. Push up on the presenting part with an examining finger
D. Begin an IV of normal saline at keep-open rate
The nurse should push on the presenting part to relieve pressure on the cord and facilitate blood flow through the cord. Answer A is incorrect because the sterile gauze should be moist, not dry. Answer B is incorrect because the client should be placed in Trendelenburg position, not high Fowler’s position. Answer D is incorrect because the IV fluid should be rapid, not keep-open rate, to increase hydration and blood flow to the fetus.
The Correct Answer is Option D
A. Droplet precautions
B. Airborne precautions
C. Contact precautions
D. No isolation precautions are needed
No isolation precautions are needed because there is no evidence of human-to-human transmission. Answers A, B, and C are incorrect because they are not indicated in the care of the client with Legionnaires’ disease.
The Correct Answer is Option C
A. Dry the skin thoroughly and apply the cream
B. Use a vigorous circular motion to apply the cream
C. Apply the cream 2–3 minutes after the bath
D. Use the cream only if flaking of the skin is noted
The application of an emollient cream to the skin two or three minutes after bathing helps seal in moisture. Answers A, B, and D are incorrect because they do not facilitate rehydration of the skin.
The Correct Answer is Option B
A. Increase her intake of milk and dairy products.
B. Avoid taking bubble baths
C. Use underwear made from nylon
D. Drink orange juice for breakfast
The nurse should tell the client to avoid tub baths as well as bubble baths. The client should be instructed to wear cotton underwear and to avoid tight-fitting clothing such as jeans. Answers A, C, and D do not decrease the incidence of cystitis; therefore, they are incorrect.
The Correct Answer is True
The Correct Answer is Option C
To calculate for the volume dose:
Drug wanted / Drug on hand x volume = 8000 units / 10,000 units x 1mL = 0.8mL
The Correct Answer is True
The Correct Answer is Option C
A. Elevate the extremity on a pillow
B. Administer pain medication
C. Administer pain medication
D. Perform a neurovascular reassessment
The physician must be notified because the client is at risk for compartment syndrome. The healthcare provider might order that the cast be bivalved, or a fasciotomy might be required. Answers A, B, and D will not take the action necessary to prevent the complication of compartment syndrome.
The Correct Answer is Option A
A. Kayexalate (sodium polystyrene sulfonate)
B. K-Dur (potassium chloride)
C. Cephulac (lactulose)
D. PhosLo (calcium acetate)
Kayexalate (sodium polystyrene sulfonate) is administered to lower potassium levels in the client with hyperkalemia. K-Dur is used for the client with hypokalemia; therefore, answer B is incorrect. Lactulose is used to lower ammonia levels in the client with liver disease; therefore, answer C is incorrect. PhosLo is used to lower phosphorus levels in the client with renal disease; therefore, Answer D is incorrect.
The Correct Answer is Option C
A. Insulin
B. Inderal (propanolol)
C. Lasix (furosemide)
D. Valium (diazepam)
Lasix is a non–potassium-sparing diuretic. This drug can potentiate fluid volume deficit. Answer A is incorrect because insulin will force fluid back into the cell and will not increase fluid volume deficit. Answer B is incorrect because Inderal (propanolol) is a beta-blocker used for the treatment of hypertension and cardiac disease. Inderal does not potentiate diuresis. Answer D is incorrect because Valium (diazepam) is a phenothiazine used as an anti-anxiety medication. This drug does not potentiate fluid volume deficit.
The Correct Answer is Option C
Volume of water to add (mL) = total volume of formula on hand (mL) – total volume of formula on hand (mL)
Diluted strength
mL water = (480mL / ½) – 480mL = (480mL x 2) – 480mL = 960mL – 480mL = 480mL
The Correct Answer is Option A
A. The client receiving radium linear accelerator radiation therapy for cancer
B. The client with a radium implant for vaginal cancer
C. The client who has just been administered radioactive isotopes for cancer
D. The client who returned from placement of iridium seeds for prostate cancer
The pregnant nurse should not be assigned to any client with radioactivity present. The client receiving linear accelerator therapy travels to the radium department for therapy, and the radiation stays in the department. Thus, the client is not radioactive. The client in answer B poses a risk to the pregnant client, so answer B is incorrect. Answer C is incorrect because the client is radioactive in very small doses. For approximately 72 hours, the client should dispose of urine and feces in special containers and use plastic spoons and forks. The client in answer D is also radioactive in small amounts, especially upon return from the procedure, so answer D is incorrect.
The Correct Answer is Option D
A. 10
B. 15
C. 20
D. 25
The normal ICP reading is 10–20. 25 would be increased and abnormal. Answers A, B, and C are all within the normal range, so they are incorrect.
The Correct Answer is Option B
A. 2–4 mm
B. 3–5 mm
C. 6–8 mm
D. 7–9 mm
The normal pupil diameter is between 3 and 5 mm in size. Answers A, C, and D are not normal pupil diameters; therefore, they are incorrect.
The Correct Answer is Option B
A. The nurse offers extra blankets.
B. The nurse places a tracheostomy tube at the bedside.
C. The nurse insists that the client refrain from talking.
D. The nurse administers pain medication every four hours.
The thyroid is located anterior to the trachea; therefore, laryngeal stridor and airway obstruction is a risk following a thyroidectomy. Answer A is incorrect because this action is not necessary. The need for extra blankets is associated with hypothyroidism, but is not directly associated with thyroid surgery. Answer C is incorrect because the client can talk. Answer D is incorrect because pain medication should be offered as needed, not every four hours.
The Correct Answer is Option B, Option D
A. Wear airborne precaution PPE
B. Obtain nasopharyngeal and oropharyngeal swabs
C. The swab product is the same swab used for MRSA testing
D. Instruct patient to self isolate until swab results are back
Answer: 2,4
Droplet precautions must be worn unless performing aerosolized procedures such as nebulizers or intubation. MRSA swab test is for the identification of bacterial microorganisms, COVID is a virus, therefore a virus swab must be used.
The nurse should conduct an oronasal pharyngeal swab and must instruct the patient to self-isolate, proper hand hygiene, and cough etiquette.
The Correct Answer is Option C
A. Third
B. Fifth
C. Seventh
D. Ninth
Damage to the seventh cranial nerve (facial nerve) might occur during a stapedectomy. Changes in facial sensation should be reported to the doctor. Stapedectomy complications do not include damage to the third, fifth, or ninth cranial nerves; therefore, answers A, B, and D are incorrect.
The Correct Answer is Option B
Convert weight from pounds to kilograms (32lbs/2.2lbs) and multiply by required dose (20ml/kg) multiplied by drop factor (10drops/ml) over the required time of 60minutes.
32 lbs x kg x 20mL x 10drops
2.2lbs kg ml
___________________________ = 48.4848485 = 48 drops/minute (rounded off to whole number)
60 minutes
The Correct Answer is True
The Correct Answer is Option A
A. Warming the intravenous fluids
B. Determining whether the client can take oral fluids
C. Checking for the strength of pedal pulses
D. Obtaining the specific gravity of the urine
Warming the intravenous fluid helps to prevent further stress on the vascular system. Thirst is a sign of hypovolemia; however, oral fluids alone will not meet the fluid needs of the client in hypovolemic shock, so answer B is incorrect. Answers C and D are wrong because they can be used for baseline information but will not help stabilize the client.
