Nutrition ATI Test Questions
Question 1 of 5
After bronchoscopy, the nurse's priority is to check which of the following before feeding?
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: After a bronchoscopy procedure, the nurse's priority is to check the patient's gag reflex before allowing them to eat to prevent aspiration. The gag reflex helps protect the airway by triggering a cough or gag response if something touches the back of the throat. This is crucial to ensure that the patient can protect their airway and prevent food or fluids from entering the lungs, especially when the throat may be sensitive or compromised post-bronchoscopy. Checking for the wearing off of anesthesia, swallowing reflex, or peristalsis are important assessments but not the immediate priority before feeding in this context.
Question 2 of 5
Dina, 17 years old, asks you how a tubal ligation prevents pregnancy. Which would be the best answer?
Correct Answer: C
Rationale: The correct answer is C: 'Sperm can no longer reach the ova because the fallopian tubes are blocked.' Tubal ligation works by blocking the fallopian tubes, preventing sperm from reaching the egg for fertilization. Choice A is incorrect because prostaglandins are not released from the cut fallopian tubes to kill sperm. Choice B is incorrect as the cervical entrance being blocked does not relate to tubal ligation. Choice D is incorrect because tubal ligation does not affect the release of ova from the ovary.
Question 3 of 5
Which of the following best describes Primary Nursing?
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: Primary Nursing involves assigning a dedicated nurse to lead a team of registered nurses in the care of a patient from admission to discharge. This approach ensures continuity and personalized care. Choices B and C are incorrect as they do not accurately describe Primary Nursing. Choice D is incorrect as it refers to a different care delivery model.
Question 4 of 5
How many words does a typical 12-month-old infant use?
Correct Answer: D
Rationale: A typical 12-month-old infant typically uses very few words, with 'mama' and 'papa' being common early words. At this age, most infants are still in the early stages of language development, and their vocabulary is limited. Choices A, B, and C suggest higher word counts which are not typical for infants at this age.
Question 5 of 5
All of the following are contraindications when giving Immunization except:
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: The correct answer is B. BCG vaccine can be given to a child with Hepatitis B, as there is no contraindication for this. Choice A, C, and D all present contraindications for administering immunizations. Choice A is incorrect because giving BCG vaccines to a child with AIDS is a contraindication. Choice C is incorrect as convulsions after the first DPT dose indicate a contraindication to subsequent doses. Choice D is incorrect because active convulsions or other neurological diseases are contraindications to receiving the DPT vaccine.
