Multi Dimensional Care | Final Exam Questions

Question 1 of 5

What may be a cause of conductive hearing loss?

Correct Answer: D

Rationale: Otitis media can cause conductive hearing loss by affecting the middle ear.

Question 2 of 5

A client does not understand why vision loss due to glaucoma is irreversible. What is the best explanation?

Correct Answer: C

Rationale: The correct answer is C. In glaucoma, the optic nerve damage due to high intraocular pressure leads to permanent vision loss because the nerve fibers do not regenerate. Choice A is incorrect as it discusses bacterial infection, not relevant to glaucoma. Choice B is incorrect because it refers to retinal detachment, not glaucoma. Choice D is incorrect because not all glaucoma cases lead to permanent blindness; vision loss can be prevented or slowed with treatment.

Question 3 of 5

What repetitive stress injury is a factory worker at risk of?

Correct Answer: C

Rationale: Factory workers are at risk of developing Carpal Tunnel Syndrome due to repetitive hand movements involved in their work. This condition occurs when the median nerve, which runs from the forearm into the palm of the hand, becomes pressed or squeezed at the wrist. Plantar fasciitis (choice A) is a condition affecting the foot, not typically associated with factory work. Osteomalacia (choice B) is a softening of the bones due to a lack of vitamin D or calcium, not directly related to repetitive stress in factory work. Osteoporosis (choice D) is a condition characterized by weak and brittle bones, usually associated with aging or hormonal changes rather than repetitive stress injuries.

Question 4 of 5

What activities should the client avoid after cataract surgery? (Select all that apply)

Correct Answer: D

Rationale: After cataract surgery, the client should avoid activities that can increase intraocular pressure. Blowing one's nose and bearing down during defecation can raise the pressure inside the eye, which can be harmful during the healing process. Lifting items heavier than 10 pounds can also lead to an increase in intraocular pressure. Therefore, all the activities mentioned in the choices (nose blowing, bearing down during defecation, and lifting heavy items) should be avoided after cataract surgery to promote proper healing and reduce the risk of complications.

Question 5 of 5

What nursing intervention is best to improve communication with a hearing-impaired client?

Correct Answer: A

Rationale: Speaking slowly and clearly while facing the client improves communication with hearing-impaired clients.
