an older adult?
a. Mix foods together on the dinner tray
b. Avoid cologne, air fresheners, or room deodorizers
c. Encourage the client to chew food thoroughly
d. Discourage the use of salt or seasonings with prepared food
ANSWER C: As clients age, their sense of taste may diminish, reducing the
Joy that comes with eating. A nurse can promote the sense of taste for a
client by encouraging him to chew his food thoroughly while eating. This
results in longer contact of food with the taste buds and a greater chance of
tasting the food.

ANSWER B: A prerenal condition is that which causes reduced urinary
elimination due to a diminished blood flow to the kidneys. A condition such
as cardiac tamponade affects the heart's ability to pump adequate amounts of
blood, thereby reducing blood flow to vital organs throughout the body,
including the kidneys.
3.
A nurse is assessing an African American client for risks of a pressure ulcer.
Which of the following best describes what the nurse might find with an early
pressure ulcer in this client?
a. Skin has a purple/bluish color
b. Capillary refill is 1 second
c. Skin appears blanched at the pressure site
d. Tenting appears when checking skin turgor
ANSWER A: When assessing for signs of developing pressure ulcers in a
client with dark skin, decreased circulation may not always be readily
apparent. For instance, blanching, the red undertones seen in light-skinned
clients, will not always be present. Instead, the skin of an early pressure ulcer
may develop a purple or bluish color.

complications associated with malnutrition and poor health.
