Exam Retake 2 ATI RN Medical Surgical
Med Surg A with rationales

A nurse is caring for a client who has a closed head injury and has an intraventricular catheter
placed. Which of the following findings indicates that the client is experiencing increased
intracranial pressure (ICP)? (Select all that apply.)
A. Flat jugular veins
B. A Glasgow Coma Scale score of 15
C. Sleepiness exhibited by the client
D. Widening pulse pressure
E. Decerebrate posturing - ANSC, D, E

Flat jugular veins is incorrect. With increased ICP, the jugular veins are typically distended.

A Glasgow Coma Scale score of 15 is incorrect. A Glasgow Coma Scale score of 15 indicates
neurological functioning within the expected reference range for eye opening, motor, and verbal
response.

Sleepiness exhibited by the client is correct. Sleepiness or difficulty arousing the client from
sleep is an indication of increased ICP.

Widening pulse pressure is correct. A widening pulse pressure (increase in systolic with
concurrent decrease in diastolic blood pressure) is an indication of increased ICP.

Decerebrate posturing is correct. Both decerebrate and decorticate posturing indicate increased
ICP.

A nurse is preparing a client who has supraventricular tachycardia for elective cardioversion.
Which of the following prescribed medications should the nurse instruct the client to withhold for
48 hr prior to cardioversion?
A. Enoxaparin
B. Metformin
C. Diazepam
D. Digoxin - ANSD. Digoxin

Cardiac glycosides, such as digoxin, are withheld prior to cardioversion. These medications can
increase ventricular irritability and put the client at risk for ventricular fibrillation after the
synchronized countershock of cardioversion.

AA

,A nurse is assessing a client who has acute cholecystitis. Which of the following findings is the
nurse's priority?
A. Anorexia
B. Abdominal pain radiating to the right shoulder
C. Tachycardia
D. Rebound abdominal tenderness - ANSC. Tachycardia

When using the urgent vs. nonurgent approach to client care, the nurse should determine that
the priority finding is tachycardia. Tachycardia is a manifestation of biliary colic, which can lead
to shock. The nurse should position the head of the client's bed flat and report this finding
immediately to the provider.

A nurse is preparing to admit a client who has dysphagia. The nurse should plan to place which
of the following items at the client's bedside?
A. Suction machine
B. Wire cutters
C. Padded clamp
D. Communication board - ANSA. Suction machine

The nurse should ensure that a suction machine is at the bedside of a client who has dysphagia
to clear the client's airway as needed and reduce the risk for aspiration.

A nurse is caring for a client who is having a seizure. Which of the following interventions is the
nurse's priority?
A. Loosen the clothing around the client's neck
B. Check the client's pupillary response
C. Turn the client to the side
D. Move furniture away from the client - ANSC. Turn the client to the side

The greatest risk to this client is hypoxia from an impaired airway. Therefore, the priority
intervention the nurse should take is to place the client in a side-lying position to prevent
aspiration.

A nurse is providing teaching to a client who has hypothyroidism and is receiving levothyroxine.
The nurse should instruct the client that which of the following supplements can interfere with
the effectiveness of the medication?
A. Ginkgo biloba
B. Glucosamine
C. Calcium
D. Vitamin C - ANSC. Calcium

Calcium limits the development of osteoporosis in clients who are postmenopausal and works
as an antacid. Calcium supplements can interfere with the metabolism of a number of

, medications, including levothyroxine. The nurse should instruct the client to avoid taking calcium
within 4 hr of levothyroxine administration.

A nurse is planning to irrigate and dress a clean, granulating would for a client who has a
pressure injury. Which of the following actions should the nurse take?
A. Apply a wet-to-dry gauze dressing
B. Irrigate with hydrogen peroxide solution
C. Use a 30-mL syringe
D. Attach a 24-gauge angiocatheter to the syringe - ANSC. Use a 30-mL syringe

The nurse should use a 30-mL to 60-mL syringe with an 18- or 19-gauge catheter to deliver the
ideal pressure of 8 pounds per square inch (psi) when irrigating a wound. To maintain healthy
granulation tissue, the wound irrigation should be delivered at between 4 and 15 psi.

A nurse is providing teaching to a female client who has a history of urinary tract infections
(UTIs). Which of the following information should the nurse include in the teaching?
A. Avoid foods that are high in ascorbic acid
B. Add oatmeal to the water when taking a tub bath
C. Urinate every 6 hr
D. Take daily cranberry supplements - ANSD. Take daily cranberry supplements

The client should take cranberry supplements or drink low-fructose cranberry juice because it
contains compounds that adhere to the urinary tract wall, decreasing the risk for developing a
UTI.

A nurse is providing teaching to a client who has esophageal cancer and is to undergo radiation
therapy. Which of the following statements should the nurse identify as an indication that the
client understands the teaching?
A. "I will was the ink markings off the radiation area after each treatment."
B. "I will use my hands rather than a washcloth to clean the radiation area."
C. "I will be able to be out of the sun 1 month after my radiation treatments are over."
D. "I will use a heating pad on my neck if it becomes sore during the radiation therapy." - ANSB.
"I will use my hands rather than a washcloth to clean the radiation area."

The client should gently wash the radiation area with their hands using warm water and mild
soap to protect the skin from further irritation.

A nurse is caring for a client 1 hr following a cardiac catheterization. The nurse notes the
formation of a hematoma at the insertion site and a decreased pulse rate in the affected
extremity. Which of the following interventions is the nurse's priority?

B. Apply firm pressure to the insertion site
C. Take the client's vital signs
D. Obtain a stat order for an aPTT - ANSB. Apply firm pressure to the insertion site
