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 B
A. Surgical ANTT
B. Standard ANTT
C. Sterile ANTT
D. Clean procedure
Simple procedures requiring asepsis will require Standard ANTT. These procedures include simple wound dressings, IV medication preparation and administration, removal of surgical drains, and changing of IV fluids.
Surgical ANTT is for invasive procedures such as IV cannulation and Urinary catheterization
Clean procedures are for non-invasive, non-sterile skills such as NGT insertion or colostomy care.
The Correct Answer is Option A
A. Reduces spasticity
B. Skeletal muscle relaxation
C. Immune suppression
D. Prevents viral infections
The drug Baclofen (Lioresal) might also improve bowel and bladder function. Answers B, C, and D do not refer to the drug Lioresal, so they are incorrect.
The Correct Answer is Option C
A. A defect in the cochlea
B. A defect in cranial nerve VIII
C. A physical obstruction to the transmission of sound waves
D. A defect in the sensory fibers that lead to the cerebral cortex
A conductive hearing loss occurs as a result of a physical obstruction to the transmission of sound waves. A sensorineural hearing loss occurs as a result of a pathological process in the inner ear, a defect in cranial nerve VIII, or a defect of the sensory fibers that lead to the cerebral cortex.
The Correct Answer is Option D
A. Wearing gloves when emptying the client’s bedpan
B. Keeping all linens in the room until the implant is removed
C. Wearing a lead apron when providing direct care to the client
D. Placing the client in a 4 bedded room with shared toilet
A private room with a private bath is essential if a client has an internal radiation implant. This is necessary to prevent accidental exposure of other clients to radiation.

The Correct Answer is Option A
A. Fractures of the ribs
B. Contusions of the lower legs
C. Fractures of the humerus
D. Lacerations of the face
Fractures of the ribs can result in a closed pneumothorax, a life-threatening emergency, that requires early detection and treatment. Answers B, C, and D are incorrect because they do not pose a risk to the life of the client.
The Correct Answer is Option B
A. Hyperthyroidism
B. Hypothyroidism
C. Hypoparathyroidism
D. Hyperparathoidism

The Correct Answer is Option B
A. Call the board of nursing
B. File a formal reprimand and monitor the nurse
C. Terminate the nurse
D. Charge the nurse with a tort
The next action after discussing the problem with the nurse is to document the incident. If the behavior continues or if harm has resulted to the client, the nurse might be terminated and reported to the board of nursing, so answers A and C are incorrect. A tort is a wrongful act to the client or her belongings, so answer D is incorrect.
The Correct Answer is Option D
A. Adolescent males
B. Preteen males
C. Preteen females
D. Adolescent females
The most likely group to have scoliosis is adolescent girls. The groups in Answers A, B, and C are not as likely to have scoliosis; therefore, those answers are incorrect.

B. 300 ml
C. 500 ml
D. 700 ml
Fluid intake for the client with acute glomerulonephritis is limited to urinary output plus 500 mL to 600 mL. Answers A and B are incorrect because the intake is too limited. Answer D is incorrect because the intake is excessive.
The Correct Answer is Option B
A. Leg cramps
B. Hot flashes
C. Urinary frequency
D. Cold extremities
This drug is in the same category as the chemotherapeutic agent tamoxifene (Novaldex) used for breast cancer. In the case of Evista, this drug is used to treat osteoporosis. Notice that the E stands for estrogen. This drug has an agonist effect, so it binds with estrogen and can cause hot flashes. This drug does not cause leg cramps, urinary frequency, or cold extremities, so answers A, C, and D are incorrect.
The Correct Answer is Option D
A. Gloves and gown
B. Gloves and goggles
C. Gloves, gown, and shoe protectors
D. Gloves, gown, goggles, and a mask or face shield
Splashes of body secretions can occur when providing colostomy care. Goggles and a mask or face shield are worn to protect the face and mucous membranes of the eyes during interventions that may produce splashes of blood, body fluids, secretions, or excretions. In addition, contact precautions require the use of gloves, and a gown should be worn if direct client contact is anticipated. Shoe protectors are not necessary.
The Correct Answer is Option D
A. Hemarthrosis of the elbow
B. Bruise of the ankle
C. Bruise of the ankle
D. Unilateral numbness and lack of movement of arm
The neurological symptoms could mean an intracranial bleed has occurred. The answers in A, B, and C are reasons for concern, but they are not the priority, so they are incorrect.
The Correct Answer is Option A
A. Stop the blood transfusion and keep the vein open with normal saline
B. Administer epinephrine per unit protocol
C. Notify the physician
D. Obtain a set of vital signs
The nurse would first ensure that the patient doesn’t get any more of the wrong blood due to displaying symptoms of a hemolytic blood reaction. Answers B, C, and D are proper actions with a blood transfusion reaction, but none is the initial action, so 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 C
Partial seizures usually originate in the temporal lobe, making Answers A, B, and D incorrect because partial seizures do not usually occur in the other lobes.
The Correct Answer is Option C
A. The procedure will take one to two hours.
B. The client will be given oral medication to prepare for the test.
C. The urine will be bright green until the dye is excreted.
D. The client will need to limit fluid intake after the test.
Fluorescein will cause the client’s urine to be bright green in color until the dye is excreted. Answer A is incorrect; the procedure takes only a few minutes because the vessels fill rapidly. Answer B is incorrect because the dye is injected intravenously. Answer D is incorrect because the client will need to drink additional fluids to help eliminate the dye.
The Correct Answer is Option A
A. Hyponatremia
B. Hypercalcemia
C. Hypocalcemia
D. Hypernatremia
The client who is taking lithium needs an adequate intake of sodium and fluid to prevent the development of lithium toxicity. Answers B, C, and D are incorrect.
The Correct Answer is Option B
A. The nurse prepares an IV of D10W.
B. The nurse prepares to administer insulin IV.
C. The nurse obtains NPH insulin for administration.
D. The nurse inserts a Foley catheter.
The client with a blood glucose of 545 mg/dl is in metabolic acidosis. An IV with insulin will be ordered. Insulin takes the glucose into the cells hence, reducing the glucose levels. Answer A is incorrect because D10W will increase the glucose level and potentiate the client’s condition. Answer C is incorrect because regular insulin will be ordered, not NPH, which is long-acting. Answer D is incorrect because although a Foley catheter might be ordered, it is not necessary for the improvement of the client’s condition.
The Correct Answer is Option D
A. Eliminates the neurotransmitter acetylcholine
B. Increases the perception of external stimuli
C. Decreases levels of cortisol from the adrenal cortex
D. Produces a seizure that temporarily alters brain chemicals
Electroconvulsive therapy produces a tonic-clonic seizure that temporarily increases brain chemicals, serotonin, dopamine, and norepinephrine. Answers A, B, and C are not true statements; therefore, they are incorrect.
The Correct Answer is Option C
A. Metabolic acidosis
B. Metabolic alkalosis
C. Respiratory acidosis
D. Respiratory alkalosis
When assessing arterial blood gases, the nurse should look at the pH. In this case, the pH is low. After assessing the pH, the nurse should look at the PaCO2. In this case, the PaCO2 is elevated. Finally, look at the HCO3. In this question, the HCO3 is elevated. Answers A, B, and D are incorrect findings because they are not consistent with the lab values given in the question.
