B. Reassess the client's blood pressure using a larger cuff.
C. Have the unit educator review this procedure with the UAPs.
D. Teach the UAP the correct technique for assessing blood pressure. - ANSWER-
The most important action is to ensure that an accurate BP reading is obtained. The
nurse should reassess the BP with the correct size cuff (B). Reassessment should
not be postponed (A). Though (C and D) are likely indicated, these actions do not
have the priority of (B).

measure is essential to the client's nursing care?


A. Massage any reddened areas for at least five minutes.
B. Encourage active range of motion exercises on extremities.
C. Position the client laterally, prone, and dorsally in sequence.

pg. 1

,the damage to already traumatized skin. To control pain and muscle spasms, active
range of motion (B) may be limited on the affected leg. The position described in
(C) is contraindicated for a client with a fractured left hip.


Correct Answer: D

Which statement best explains this nursing responsibility?


A. The client voluntarily signed the form.
B. The client fully understands the procedure.
C. The client agrees with the procedure to be done.
D. The client authorizes continued treatment. - ANSWER-The nurse signs the
consent form to witness that the client voluntarily signs the consent (A), that the
client's signature is authentic, and that the client is otherwise competent to give
consent. It is the healthcare provider's responsibility to ensure the client fully
understands the procedure (B). The nurse's signature does not indicate (C or D).
Correct Answer: A


A Sub-Saharan African widowed immigrant woman lives with her deceased
husband's brother and his family, which includes the brother-in-law's children and
the widow's adult children. Each family member speaks fluent English. Surgery
was recommended for the client. What is the best plan to obtain consent for
surgery for this client?


A. Obtain an interpreter to explain the procedure to the client.
B. Encourage the client to make her own decision regarding surgery.
C. Ask the family members to provide a clarification of the surgeon's explanation
to the client.


pg. 2

,D. Tell the surgeon that the brother-in-law will decide after explanation of the
proposed surgery is provided to him and the widow. - ANSWER-Customary law in
some rural sub-Saharan countries encompasses wife inheritance and polygamy; the
widow becomes the inherited wife of her husband's brother. In those rural areas
women live in a patriarchal family where decisions are made by men. Most likely,
the brother-in-law will make the decision for his inherited wife, so (D) provides the
surgeon with culturally sensitive information. (A) all family members speak fluent
English therefore there is no need for translation. It is culturally insensitive to
encourage the woman to go against her wishes and her cultural worldview, as in
(B). Family members are more likely to misinterpret medical information (C).
Correct Answer: D


The nurse is administering medications through a nasogastric tube (NGT) which is
connected to suction. After ensuring correct tube placement, what action should the
nurse take next?


A. Clamp the tube for 20 minutes.
B. Flush the tube with water.
C. Administer the medications as prescribed.
D. Crush the tablets and dissolve in sterile water. - ANSWER-The NGT should be
flushed before, after and in between each medication administered (B). Once all
medications are administered, the NGT should be clamped for 20 minutes (A). (C
and D) may be implemented only after the tubing has been flushed.
Correct Answer: B


A client who is in hospice care complains of increasing amounts of pain. The
healthcare provider prescribes an analgesic every four hours as needed. Which
action should the nurse implement?


A. Give an around-the-clock schedule for administration of analgesics.



pg. 3

, B. Administer analgesic medication as needed when the pain is severe.
C. Provide medication to keep the client sedated and unaware of stimuli.
D. Offer a medication-free period so that the client can do daily activities. -
ANSWER-The most effective management of pain is achieved using an around-
the-clock schedule that provides analgesic medications on a regular basis (A) and
in a timely manner. Analgesics are less effective if pain persists until it is severe,
so an analgesic medication should be administered before the client's pain peaks
(B). Providing comfort is a priority for the client who is dying, but sedation that
impairs the client's ability to interact and experience the time before life ends
should be minimized (C). Offering a medication-free period allows the serum drug
level to fall, which is not an effective method to manage chronic pain (D).


Correct Answer: A


When assessing a client with wrist restraints, the nurse observes that the fingers on
the right hand are blue. What action should the nurse implement first?


A. Loosen the right wrist restraint.
B. Apply a pulse oximeter to the right hand.
C. Compare hand color bilaterally.
D. Palpate the right radial pulse. - ANSWER-The priority nursing action is to
restore circulation by loosening the restraint (A), because blue fingers (cyanosis)
indicates decreased circulation. (C and D) are also important nursing interventions,
but do not have the priority of (A). Pulse oximetry (B) measures the saturation of
hemoglobin with oxygen and is not indicated in situations where the cyanosis is
related to mechanical compression (the restraints).


Correct Answer: A
