Which of the following serum laboratory values would the nurse monitor during gentamicin therapy?A) CreatinineB) SodiumC) CalciumD) Potassium3. While changing the dressing on a clients central line, the nurse notices redness and warmth at the needle insertion site. Which of the following actions would be appropriate to implement based on this finding?A) Discontinue the central line.B) Begin a peripheral IV.C) Document in the nurse - s notes and notify the physician after redressing the site.D) Clean the site well and redress.4. The nurse is caring for a client who has had a tracheostomy for 7 years. The client is started on a fullstrength tube feeding at 75 mL/hr. Prior to starting the tube feeding, the nurse confirms placement of the tube in the stomach. The hospital policy states that all tube feeding must be dyed blue. On suctioning, the nurse notices the sputum to be a blue color. This is indicative of which of the following?A) The client aspirated tube feeding.B) The nurse has placed the suction catheter in the esophagus.C) This is a normal finding.D) The feeding is infusing into the trachea.5. The nurse is caring for a client with pancreatitis. Which of the following IV medications would the nurse expect the physician to prescribe for control of pain in this client?A) Morphine sulfateB) Kerolac tromethamine (Toradol)C) Promethazine (Phenergan)D) Meperidine (Demerol) Right Answer and Explanation: 1. Right Answer: DExplanation: (A) There is a separate collection bottle for drainage as part of a chest drainage system. (B) In a three-bottle chest drainage system, one bottle serves only as a pressure regulator. (C) Mediastinal chest tubes prevent accumulation of blood around the heart immediately following heart surgery. (D) The purpose of the water- seal bottle in any chest drainage setup is to allow air out of the chest, but not back in. This negative pressure promotes lung expansion.2. Right Answer: AExplanation: (A) A common side effect of gentamicin is nephrotoxicity. The serum laboratory test that best reflects kidney function is serum creatinine. (B) Serum sodium has no relationship to gentamicin. (C) Serum calcium has no relationship to gentamicin. (D) Serum potassium has no relationship to gentamicin. If a client has impaired renal function secondary to gentamicin administration, he or she may also have hyperkalemia as a secondary disorder.3. Right Answer: CExplanation: (A) The nurse may never discontinue a central line without a physicians order. (B) The nurse may never initiate a peripheral IV without a physicians order except in an emergency situation. (C) The nurse should always document findings and alert the physician to the findings as well. The physician may then initiate a new central line and order the current central line to be discontinued. (D) Besides cleaning and redressing, the nurse should always document the findings.4. Right Answer: AExplanation: (A) Once the feeding tube placement is confirmed in the stomach, aspiration can occur if the clients stomach becomes too full. When suctioning the trachea, if secretions resemble tube feeding, the client has aspirated the feeding. (B) Because the trachea provides direct access to a clients airway, it would not be possible to place the catheter in the esophagus. (C) Blue-colored sputum is never considered a normal finding and should be reported and documented. (D) The nurse confirmed placement of the feeding tube in the stomach prior to initiating the tube feeding; therefore, it is highly unlikely that the feeding tube would be located in the trachea.5. Right Answer: DExplanation: (A) Morphine sulfate is contraindicated in clients with pancreatitis because it may cause spasms of the sphincter of Oddi and increase pancreatic pain. (B)Ketorolac tromethamine is currently not approved by the Food and Drug Administration for IV use. (C) Promethazine is a medication that has no analgesic properties. (D) Meperidine is the drug of choice for clients with pancreatitis. It will not cause spasms at the sphincter of Oddi, which can lead to increased pancreatic pain. .col-md-12 { -webkit-user-select: none; -ms-user-select: none; user-select: none; } .flash-sale-container{background:#134981;text-align:center;padding:2%;} p.flash-sale-text{ font-size:24px;font-family:"Poppins";letter-spacing:2px;line-height:1.4em; } span.flash-break{ display:block; } .flash-sale-text { -webkit-animation-name:flash; animation: blink 1.5s infinite; } @keyframes blink{ 0% { color: #D3585F; } 20% { color: #D3585F; } 40% { color: #FFF; } 60% { color: #FFF; } 80% { color: #D3585F; } 100% { color: #D3585F; } } @-webkit-keyframes blink{ 0% { color: #D3585F; } 20% { color: #D3585F; } 40% { color: #FFF; } 60% { color: #FFF; } 80% { color: #D3585F; } 100% { color: #D3585F; } } 80% DISCOUNT: NCLEX-RN PRACTICE EXAMS

NCLEX-RN Exam Questions - Part 70

Questions 1. A 48-year-old female client is going to have a cholecystectomy in the morning. In planning for her postoperative care, the nurse is aware that a priority nursing diagnosis for her will be high risk for:A) Knowledge deficitB) Urinary retentionC) Impaired physical mobilityD) Ineffective breathing pattern2. A client is having a pneumonectomy done today, and the nurse is planning her postoperative care. Nursing interventions for a postoperative left pneumonectomy would include:A) Monitoring the chest tubesB) Positioning the client on the right sideC) Positioning the client in semi-Fowler position with a pillow under the shoulder and backD) Monitoring the right lung for an increase in rales3. A client returned to the unit following a pneumonectomy. As the nurse is assessing her incision, she notices fresh blood on the dressing. The nurse should first:A) Reinforce the dressing.B) Continue to monitor the dressing.C) Notify the physician.D) Note the time and amount of blood.4. A client had a renal transplant 3 months ago. He has suddenly developed graft tenderness, an increased white blood cell count, and malaise. The client is experiencing which type of rejection?A) AcuteB) ChronicC) HyperacuteD) Hyperchronic5. A client has received preoperative teaching for the vertical partial laryngectomy that he is scheduled to have in the morning. The nurse determines that the teaching has been effective when the client states:A) 'I know I will need special swallowing training after my surgery.'B) 'The quality of my voice will be excellent after surgery.'C) 'I will have very little difficulty swallowing after surgery.'D) 'I may also have to have a radical neck dissection done.' Right Answer and Explanation: 1. Right Answer: DExplanation: (A) The client may have a knowledge deficit, but reducing the risk for knowledge deficit is not a priority nursing diagnosis postoperatively. (B) The client will have aFoley catheter for a day or two after surgery. Urinary retention is usually not a problem once the Foley catheter is removed. (C) A client having a cholecystectomy should not be physically impaired. In fact, the client is encouraged to begin ambulating soon after surgery. (D) Because of the location of the incision, the client having a cholecystectomy is reluctant to breathe deeply and is at risk for developing pneumonia. These clients have to be reminded and encouraged to take deep breaths.2. Right Answer: DExplanation: (A) Chest tubes are usually not necessary in a pneumonectomy because there is no lung to re-expand on the operative side. (B) The pneumonectomy client should be positioned on the back or operated side because the sutured bronchial stump may open, allowing fluid to drain into the unoperated side and drown the client. (C) The client should not have a pillow under the shoulder and back because of the subscapular incision. (D) Rales are commonly heard over the base of the remaining lung, but an increase could indicate circulatory overload and therefore should be closely monitored.3. Right Answer: CExplanation: (A) The dressing should not be reinforced without first notifying the physician. The decision may be made by the physician to reinforce the dressing after assessing the amount of bleeding. (B) Blood on the dressing is unusual and should make the nurse aware that something more than continuing to monitor the dressing should be done. (C) The physician should be notified immediately, because if the bleeding persists, the client may have to be taken back to surgery. (D)The time and amount of blood do need to be recorded after the physician is notified.4. Right Answer: AExplanation: (A) The sudden development of fever, graft tenderness, increased white blood count, and malaise are signs and symptoms of an acute rejection that commonly occurs at 3 months. (B) Chronic rejection occurs slowly over a period of months to years and mimics chronic renal failure. (C) Hyperacute rejection occurs immediately after surgery up to 48 hours postoperatively. (D) Hyperchronic rejection is not a type of rejection.5. Right Answer: CExplanation: (A) A client with a supraglottic (horizontal partial) laryngectomy would require special swallowing training, not a vertical partial laryngectomy. (B) The quality of the clients voice will be altered but adequate for communication. (C) The client will have minimal difficulty swallowing. (D) A radical neck dissection may be done with a total laryngectomy, but not with a partial laryngectomy. .col-md-12 { -webkit-user-select: none; -ms-user-select: none; user-select: none; } .flash-sale-container{background:#134981;text-align:center;padding:2%;} p.flash-sale-text{ font-size:24px;font-family:"Poppins";letter-spacing:2px;line-height:1.4em; } span.flash-break{ display:block; } .flash-sale-text { -webkit-animation-name:flash; animation: blink 1.5s infinite; } @keyframes blink{ 0% { color: #D3585F; } 20% { color: #D3585F; } 40% { color: #FFF; } 60% { color: #FFF; } 80% { color: #D3585F; } 100% { color: #D3585F; } } @-webkit-keyframes blink{ 0% { color: #D3585F; } 20% { color: #D3585F; } 40% { color: #FFF; } 60% { color: #FFF; } 80% { color: #D3585F; } 100% { color: #D3585F; } } 80% DISCOUNT: NCLEX-RN PRACTICE EXAMS
