, BSN 246 HESI REVIEW QUESTIONS AND
ANSWERS 100% CORRECT!
The registered nurse (RN) recognizes which client group is at the greatest risk for
developing a urinary tract infection (UTI)? (Rank from highest risk to lowest risk.)
1.Older males.
2.School-age female.
3.Older females.
4.Adolescent males. - ANSWER orrect Answer:
1.Older females.
2.School-age female.
3.Older males.
4.Adolescent males.
Rationale
Hypoestrogenism and alkalotic urine are other age-related factors put older women at
the highest risk for UTIs. School age girls (6 to 12 years) are at risk for UTIs due to a
higher prevalence to taking baths instead of showers, but these risks can be controlled
in this population as well as hypoestrogenism and alkalotic urine. Older men are at risk
due to possible obstruction of the bladder due to benign prostatic hypertrophy (BPH).
Adolescent males (12 to 19 years) are the lowest at risk for a UTI.
All individuals regardless of gender and/or age are at risk if the following conditions
exist: vesicoureteral reflux, neuromuscular conditions, like Parkinson's disease,
previous brain attacks, or the use of anticholinergic medications can all cause
incomplete bladder emptying which can create bacterial overgrowth. Fecal and urinary
incontinence contributes to poor perineal hygiene and bacterial growth.
A male client is admitted after falling from his bed. The healthcare provider (HCP) tells
the family that he has an incomplete fracture of the humerus. The family ask the RN
what this means. Which type of fracture should the RN explain from these findings?
-Straignt fracture line that is also a simple, closed fracture.
-Nondisplaced fracture line that wraps around the bone.
-A complete fracture that also punctures the skin.
-A fracture that bends or splinters part of the bone. - ANSWER A fracture that bends or
splinters part of the bone.
Rationale
An incomplete fracture occurs when part of the bone is splintered (broken) and it has
not gone completely through the thickness of the bone.
