Multi Dimensional Care | Final Exam Questions

Question 1 of 5

Which of the following clients are at an increased risk for deep vein thrombosis following a reduction and internal fixation of the hip? (Select all that apply)

Correct Answer: a

Rationale: Clients on birth control pills, immobile, and smokers are at increased risk of DVT after hip surgery.

Question 2 of 5

A client is diagnosed with glaucoma. The provider needs to determine if it is open-angle glaucoma or closed-angle glaucoma. What test does the nurse anticipate?

Correct Answer: B

Rationale: Gonioscopy is the appropriate test to anticipate in this scenario. It is used to distinguish between open-angle and closed-angle glaucoma by examining the angle where the iris meets the cornea. Choice A, ultrasonic imaging, is not typically used to differentiate between these types of glaucoma. Choice C, corneal staining, is used to detect corneal abrasions and defects, not to differentiate between types of glaucoma. Choice D, electroretinography, is a test that measures the electrical responses of various cell types in the retina and is not specific to differentiating between open-angle and closed-angle glaucoma.

Question 3 of 5

What device would be best to use for a client who is immobile?

Correct Answer: B

Rationale: A mechanical lift is the most suitable device for a client who is immobile as it provides safe and efficient assistance in moving the individual. A standing assist device is used for support during standing activities, not for transferring an immobile client. A transfer board is helpful for assisting a client in sliding from one surface to another but may not be the best option for someone who is completely immobile. A gait belt is used for providing support and stability during walking or transferring, which may not be effective for a client who is immobile and requires more comprehensive assistance.

Question 4 of 5

The client has been asked to perform weight-bearing exercises three times a week. The client admits to not doing the recommended exercises. What is the most appropriate response by the nurse?

Correct Answer: B

Rationale: The most appropriate response by the nurse is to ask the client to elaborate on their experience with the exercises. By doing so, the nurse can gain insight into any barriers the client may be facing and work together to find solutions to improve adherence. Choice A is not appropriate as it doesn't address the client's situation. Choice C is not relevant and may induce fear in the client. Choice D is directive and does not promote open communication or understanding of the client's perspective.

Question 5 of 5

What are nonsurgical treatment options for carpal tunnel syndrome? (Select all that apply)

Correct Answer: D

Rationale: The correct answer is D, 'All of the above.' Non-surgical treatments for carpal tunnel syndrome include using a splint, ultrasound therapy, corticosteroid injections, and NSAIDs. Choice A is correct as using a splint helps to keep the wrist in a neutral position, reducing pressure on the median nerve. Choice B is correct as ultrasound therapy can help reduce inflammation and alleviate symptoms. Choice C, 'Endoscopic carpal tunnel release,' is incorrect as it is a surgical procedure, not a nonsurgical treatment option for carpal tunnel syndrome.
