Question 1 of 5
Upon data collection he had been failing three times in his math class and Korino was known for substance dependent for three years. What is the MOST APPROPRIATE nursing diagnosis for him?
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: The most appropriate nursing diagnosis for the individual described is "Ineffective individual coping." This is because the individual has been facing challenges in both academic (failing math class) and personal (substance dependence) aspects of his life. The repeated failures in his math class and the substance dependence for three years indicate that he might be struggling to cope with stressors and challenges in his life effectively. By identifying this nursing diagnosis, the nurse can focus on helping the individual develop effective coping strategies to manage and overcome these difficulties.

Correct Answer: B
Rationale: The best example of how the nurse can create a climate in which clients do not feel threatened is by teaching on good nutrition while providing a meal. This approach not only addresses an important topic that is beneficial for the clients but also creates a comfortable and welcoming atmosphere. By offering a meal, the nurse is able to engage the clients in a familiar and non-threatening activity, making them more receptive to the information being shared. Additionally, sharing a meal can help to build rapport and create a sense of community among the clients and the nurse, leading to a more positive learning experience.
Question 3 of 5
Lillian asks the nurse the cause of this ailment. Which of the following would the nurse explain as predisposing factors of mastitis? (Select all that apply) I. Milk stasis II. Nipple trauma III. Using alcohol in cleaning nipples IV. Baby 's sitting position
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: Mastitis is typically caused by bacterial infection, with predisposing factors including milk stasis (I) and nipple trauma (II). Milk stasis occurs when milk is not effectively removed from the breast, leading to a build-up that can block ducts and predispose to infection. Nipple trauma, such as cracks or damage, can provide entry points for bacteria to infect the breast tissue. Factors like using alcohol in cleaning nipples (III) and the baby's sitting position (IV) are not directly associated with the development of mastitis.
Question 4 of 5
Which of the following interventions is appropriate for managing a conscious patient with a severe nosebleed (epistaxis)?
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: When managing a conscious patient with a severe nosebleed (epistaxis), the appropriate intervention is to have the patient sit upright and lean slightly forward to prevent blood from flowing into the throat and causing choking or swallowing. Pinching the soft part of the nose just below the bony part can help apply pressure to the bleeding vessel and stop the bleeding. This maneuver also helps compress the blood vessels in the nose, promoting clot formation and stopping the bleeding. It is important not to tilt the head back as this can cause blood to flow into the throat and potentially lead to swallowing, choking, or aspiration. Packing the nose with cotton gauze should be done by medical professionals if the bleeding does not stop with direct pressure. Applying direct pressure to the forehead is not effective for managing nosebleeds; pressure should be applied to the nostrils instead.
Question 5 of 5
The client has been "pesky," seeking the attention of nurses in the nurses' station much of the day. Now the nurse escorts the client to the room and tells the client to stay there or be put into seclusion. The nurse is threatening to give the client an injection in order to restrain the client for inappropriate behavior. This is an example of
Correct Answer: C
Rationale: False imprisonment is the act of improperly restraining another individual against their will. In this scenario, the nurse's threat of putting the client into seclusion and administering an injection to restrain them for inappropriate behavior constitutes false imprisonment. The client is being restricted in their movement without valid reason or proper procedure. This type of action is not acceptable in healthcare settings and violates the client's rights. It is important for healthcare professionals to use appropriate de-escalation techniques and interventions to manage challenging behaviors without resorting to threats of physical restraint.
