Nursing Elites

1. After fertilization, cell division occurs through a process of:

• A. Binary fission
• B. Meiosis
• C. Budding
• D. Mitosis

Correct answer: D

Rationale: After fertilization, the zygote undergoes cell division through the process of mitosis. Mitosis is the type of cell division that results in two daughter cells with the same number of chromosomes as the parent cell. Choice A, binary fission, is a form of asexual reproduction in prokaryotes, not the process that occurs after fertilization in multicellular organisms. Choice B, meiosis, is a type of cell division that leads to the formation of gametes with half the number of chromosomes, not the process that occurs after fertilization. Choice C, budding, is a form of asexual reproduction seen in some organisms like yeast, but it is not the process of cell division after fertilization.

2. Septic abortion is characterized by:

• A. Backache.
• B. Os open.
• C. Heavy bleeding.
• D. Maternal pyrexia.

Correct answer: D

Rationale: Septic abortion is characterized by maternal pyrexia. Maternal pyrexia, or fever, is a hallmark sign of septic abortion due to infection. Backache and heavy bleeding can be present in abortion but are not specific to septic abortion. 'Os open' does not directly characterize septic abortion.

3. The letter 'T' in the Acronym 'GATHER' denotes:

• A. Ask the client about themselves - particular needs, obstetric and medical history
• B. Tell the client about modern FP methods available, and discuss each in detail
• C. Help the client choose a method and repeat information regarding the chosen method if necessary
• D. Explain how to use the method - what, where, when, and how

Correct answer: B

Rationale: The correct answer is B: 'Tell the client about modern FP methods available, and discuss each in detail.' In the GATHER acronym, 'T' stands for providing information about modern family planning methods to the client and having a detailed discussion. Choices A, C, and D are incorrect because they do not accurately represent the 'T' component in the GATHER approach. Choice A focuses more on gathering information from the client, choice C is about helping the client choose a method, and choice D is about explaining how to use the method, none of which align with the 'T' in GATHER.

4. Appropriate Technologies and Skills:

• A. Must be selected according to universal standards
• B. Involves ensuring the woman delivers at the hospital
• C. Requires specific qualifications such as being a nurse
• D. Necessitates the presence of a doctor at the service providing facility

Correct answer: A

Rationale: The correct answer is A because appropriate technologies must adhere to universal standards to ensure their effectiveness. Choice B is incorrect because the question is not specifically referring to childbirth. Choice C is incorrect as it limits the scope to only nurses. Choice D is incorrect as it implies the necessity of a doctor, which may not always be the case.

5. What does Community Participation in reproductive health mean?

• A. Engaging the community in all stages to ensure acceptability, appropriateness, and sustainability of reproductive health programs.
• B. Providing health services only to women of reproductive age.
• C. Providing reproductive health services without community involvement.
• D. Providing reproductive health services to the entire population without exceptions.

Correct answer: A

Rationale: The correct answer is A: Engaging the community in all stages to ensure acceptability, appropriateness, and sustainability of reproductive health programs. Community participation in reproductive health involves involving the community in planning, implementing, and evaluating programs to ensure they meet the needs and are sustainable. Choice B is incorrect because community participation is not limited to only women of reproductive age but involves the entire community. Choice C is incorrect as it emphasizes providing services without community involvement, which goes against the principles of community participation. Choice D is incorrect because community participation focuses on involving the community rather than providing services to the entire population without exceptions.
