NUR 350 Chap 54 Review Questions and
Correct Answers
A patient with prostate cancer is receiving drug therapy with androgen receptor
blockers. Which side effects should the nurse inform the patient to expect?

Multiple selection question

Hot flushes

Loss of libido

Joint swelling

Muscle discomfort

Erectile dysfunction ✅Hot flushes

Loss of libido

Erectile dysfunction

Hot flushes, loss of libido, and erectile dysfunction are side effects of androgen receptor
blockers, because they block the action of testosterone by competing with receptor
sites. Joint swelling and muscle discomfort are not side effects of androgen receptor
blockers.

patient, which common disadvantages of the procedure should the nurse include?

Multiple selection question

Risk of erectile dysfunction ✅Hematuria

, Urinary retention

Irritative voiding symptoms

Hematuria, urinary retention, and irritative voiding symptoms are the common
disadvantages of the TUNA procedure. Erectile dysfunction is rare with TUNA
treatment. Retrograde ejaculation is also rare in TUNA and is more common in laser
prostatectomy, transurethral electrovaporization of prostate (TUVP), and transurethral
resection of prostate (TURP).

An older adult patient reports urinary urgency. What diagnostic findings does the nurse
correlate with benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH)?

Multiple selection question

Negative urinalysis and culture

Elevated serum creatinine levels

Residual urine with postvoiding catheterization

Enlarged prostate as observed on ultrasonography

Vesicle neck obstruction as observed on cystoscopy ✅Residual urine with postvoiding
catheterization

Enlarged prostate as observed on ultrasonography

Vesicle neck obstruction as observed on cystoscopy

An enlarged prostate as observed on ultrasonography, vesicle neck obstruction as
observed on cystoscopy, and residual urine with postvoiding catheterization are
possible diagnostic findings of BPH. Having a negative urinalysis and culture and
elevated serum creatinine levels do not necessarily indicate BPH.
