Nursing Elites

1. What does Bidder's canal receive?

• A. Eggs
• B. Sperms
• C. Ammonia
• D. Oxygenated blood

Correct answer: B

Rationale: Bidder's canal is a part of the male reproductive system and receives sperm from the testes. The other choices are incorrect because Bidder's canal is not associated with receiving eggs, ammonia, or oxygenated blood.

2. What does reproductive health refer to?

• A. Healthy baby
• B. Frequent coitus
• C. Healthy reproductive organs and functions
• D. Longer lifetime

Correct answer: C

Rationale: Reproductive health refers to the overall well-being of the reproductive system, including both the organs and their functions. It encompasses the ability to have a satisfying and safe sex life, the capability to reproduce, and the absence of reproductive problems. Choice A is incorrect because reproductive health is not solely about having a healthy baby but also includes the health of the individual. Choice B is incorrect as it focuses only on sexual activity frequency rather than the holistic well-being of the reproductive system. Choice D is incorrect because a longer lifetime does not specifically relate to reproductive health.

3. In which of the following types of spontaneous abortions would the nurse assess dark brown vaginal discharge and a negative pregnancy test?

• A. Threatened
• B. Imminent
• C. Missed
• D. Incomplete

Correct answer: C

Rationale: Dark brown vaginal discharge and a negative pregnancy test are characteristic of a missed abortion. In a missed abortion, the fetus has died, but the products of conception are retained in the uterus. This can lead to symptoms like dark brown vaginal discharge as the body tries to expel the nonviable pregnancy. A threatened abortion is characterized by vaginal bleeding without dilation of the cervix, and the pregnancy remains viable. Imminent abortion involves cervical dilation and effacement with no passage of tissue. In an incomplete abortion, only part of the products of conception are expelled, leading to persistent bleeding and cramping.

4. Which of the following is a common presentation in women with polycystic ovarian syndrome?

• A. Oligomenorrhea, obesity, and hirsutism
• B. Amenorrhea, generalized hair loss, and weight gain
• C. Repeated ectopic pregnancies and chronic pelvic pain
• D. Fatigue, body aches, and menorrhagia

Correct answer: A

Rationale: The correct answer is A: Oligomenorrhea, obesity, and hirsutism. Polycystic ovarian syndrome (PCOS) commonly presents with irregular periods (oligomenorrhea), obesity, and increased hair growth (hirsutism) due to hormonal imbalances. Choice B is incorrect as amenorrhea (absence of periods), generalized hair loss, and weight gain are not typical features of PCOS. Choice C is incorrect as repeated ectopic pregnancies and chronic pelvic pain are not characteristic of PCOS. Choice D is incorrect as fatigue, body aches, and menorrhagia (excessive menstrual bleeding) are not primary symptoms seen in PCOS.

5. How many arteries are there in an umbilical cord?

• A. Three
• B. One
• C. Two
• D. Four

Correct answer: C

Rationale: There are two arteries in an umbilical cord. The umbilical cord contains two arteries and one vein. Artery carries blood away from the fetus, while the vein returns blood to the fetus. Therefore, choices A, B, and D are incorrect as they do not represent the correct number of arteries in an umbilical cord.
