ATI Capstone Fundamentals Assessment Proctored

Correct Answer: B

Rationale: The correct answer is B because the surgeon should address the client's doubts before surgery. Informed consent requires that the client fully understands the procedure. Choice A is incorrect because reassuring the client of the surgeon's skill does not address the client's doubts about the need for surgery. Choice C is incorrect because telling the client surgery is necessary may not address their concerns and could violate the principle of autonomy. Choice D is incorrect as the immediate concern is addressing the client's doubts before surgery, not necessarily seeking a second opinion.

Correct Answer: B

Rationale: The correct answer is to auscultate bowel sounds. This action should be taken first because it ensures that bowel sounds are not altered by physical manipulation. Inspecting the abdomen (choice C) may provide visual cues but does not address functional assessment. Palpating the abdomen (choice A) should follow auscultation to prevent altering bowel sounds. Percussing the abdomen (choice D) is typically done after auscultation and palpation.

Correct Answer: B

Rationale: The correct answer is B: Macule. A macule is a flat, nonpalpable skin lesion that is smaller than 1 cm in diameter. In this case, the lesion is less than 0.5cm, fitting the description of a macule. A papule (choice A) is a solid, elevated lesion less than 0.5 cm in diameter. A nodule (choice C) is a solid, elevated lesion that is 0.5 cm or larger in diameter. A tumor (choice D) refers to a mass of abnormal tissue growth, which is not applicable in this scenario.

Correct Answer: B

Rationale: The correct answer is B: 'Peer pressure can lead to risky behaviors.' Adolescents are at an increased risk for injury due to peer pressure and the tendency to engage in high-risk behaviors. Emphasizing the impact of peer pressure on decision-making can help adolescents make safer choices. Choices A, C, and D are incorrect because adolescents actually have an increased risk of injury, increased responsibility does not always reduce risks, and many adolescents are at risk of engaging in substance abuse.

Correct Answer: B

Rationale: Nausea is a common sign of intolerance to enteral feedings and should be addressed promptly. Weight gain is not typically associated with intolerance to enteral feedings; instead, it may indicate other issues such as fluid retention. Constipation is also not a direct indicator of intolerance to enteral feedings. While an elevated heart rate can occur for various reasons, it is less specific to enteral feeding intolerance compared to nausea.
