Answer and Explanation

Correct Answer : B,D,E,F

A. Contact children and youth services. There is no indication that the client is a minor. Mandatory reporting to child protective services applies to minors, but in the case of an adult client, reporting sexual assault is the client’s decision unless required by law (such as in cases involving incapacitated individuals or threats to public safety).
B. Administer sexually transmitted infection prophylaxis. Clients who have experienced sexual assault should be offered prophylactic treatment for sexually transmitted infections (STIs), including chlamydia, gonorrhea, and trichomoniasis, in accordance with CDC guidelines. Post-exposure prophylaxis for HIV may also be considered based on risk factors.
C. Provide resources to the client for the local Alcoholics Anonymous chapter. The client reports social drinking but has not indicated problematic alcohol use or a desire for treatment. Providing unsolicited resources for Alcoholics Anonymous may not be appropriate in this situation.
D. Maintain a safe and private environment for the client. Ensuring privacy and a safe space is essential for clients who have experienced trauma. The nurse should provide emotional support, minimize interruptions, and allow the client to make decisions regarding care.
E. Request a consult for case management. Case management services can assist with legal considerations, follow-up care, counseling referrals, and safety planning. The nurse should initiate a referral to support the client’s needs.
F. Provide resources for local support services. Sexual assault survivors should receive information about crisis hotlines, advocacy groups, counseling services, and other community resources that can offer emotional and legal support.

Correct Answer is B

Explanation

A. Pivotal Joint (Radius-Ulnar Joint) –A pivot joint allows for rotation around a single axis. The joint between the radius and ulna at the elbow allows the forearm to rotate (pronation/supination). This is not a ball-and-socket joint because it does not allow movement in multiple planes.
B. A ball-and-socket joint allows for the greatest range of motion in multiple directions, including flexion, extension, abduction, adduction, and rotation. Examples are the hip joint (femur-acetabulum) and shoulder joint (humerus-glenoid cavity).
C. A hinge joint allows movement in only one plane (like a door hinge) with flexion and extension. Examples are the knee joint (tibia-femur) and elbow joint (humerus-ulna) function as hinge joints. It is not a ball-and-socket joint because it does not allow rotation or movement in multiple planes.
D. A condyloid (ellipsoidal) joint allows movement in two planes (flexion/extension and abduction/adduction), but no rotation. Examples are the wrist joint (radiocarpal joint) allows side-to-side and up-and-down movements but lacks full rotation.

A. Encourage oral fluid intake. B. Administer an enema. C. Irrigate indwelling catheter with 500 mL of fluid. D. Assist the client with a sitz bath. E. Encourage prolonged dangling before ambulation.

Correct Answer is ["A","B"]

Explanation

A. Encourage oral fluid intake. The client has pink urine, which may indicate mild hematuria. While the urine output is adequate, increasing fluid intake can help dilute the urine, reduce irritation, and promote overall hydration. Additionally, increased fluid intake can aid in softening stool and preventing further constipation.
B. Administer an enema. The client reports abdominal cramping and a small, hard, painful bowel movement, indicating constipation. Postoperative clients are at risk for constipation due to decreased mobility, opioid pain medications, and anesthesia effects. Administering an enema can help relieve discomfort and promote bowel movements.
C. Irrigate indwelling catheter with 500 mL of fluid. The client's urinary catheter is intact, and there is a consistent urine output of 100 mL/hr. The presence of pink urine does not indicate obstruction requiring catheter irrigation. Irrigation with such a large volume could introduce unnecessary risk and is not warranted at this time.
D. Assist the client with a sitz bath. Sitz baths are typically used for perineal discomfort, such as after perineal surgery, hemorrhoids, or childbirth. There is no indication in the nurse’s notes that the client has perineal pain or a condition requiring a sitz bath.
E. Encourage prolonged dangling before ambulation. The client is already ambulating independently, indicating no significant issues with orthostatic hypotension or weakness. Encouraging prolonged dangling is unnecessary and could delay mobility, which is essential for preventing complications such as constipation and venous thromboembolism.
