Nursing Elites

1. What does Integrated Reproductive Health entail?

• A. Women of childbearing age
• B. Women and under-five children only
• C. Men, women, adolescents, youth, and children
• D. Pregnant women only

Correct answer: C

Rationale: Integrated Reproductive Health involves providing services that cater to a wide range of demographics, including men, women, adolescents, youth, and children. This comprehensive approach ensures that reproductive health needs are addressed across different age groups and genders. Choices A, B, and D are too restrictive and do not encompass the full scope of Integrated Reproductive Health services.

2. Which one is not a barrier method for birth control?

• A. Diaphragms
• B. Cervical caps
• C. Vaults
• D. Intrauterine Devices (IUDs)

Correct answer: D

Rationale: The correct answer is D, Intrauterine Devices (IUDs). Barrier methods of birth control physically block sperm from reaching the egg. Diaphragms, cervical caps, and vaults are examples of barrier methods as they create a barrier that prevents sperm from reaching the cervix. In contrast, IUDs work by altering the cervical mucus and uterine lining, making it difficult for sperm to reach the egg, but they do not physically block sperm like barrier methods do.

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. Which female reproductive organ is positioned directly posterior to the bladder?

• A. Uterine tube
• B. Vagina
• C. Uterus
• D. Ovaries

Correct answer: C

Rationale: The correct answer is the uterus. The uterus is positioned directly posterior to the bladder in the female reproductive system. The uterine tube (choice A) is also known as the fallopian tube, which is not positioned directly posterior to the bladder. The vagina (choice B) is located below the uterus and not directly posterior to the bladder. The ovaries (choice D) are located on either side of the uterus, but they are not positioned directly posterior to the bladder.

5. What is the function of luteinizing hormone?

• A. Maintains the corpus luteum
• B. Ripens the Graafian follicle
• C. Prepares the breasts for lactation
• D. Produces regrowth of the endometrium

Correct answer: A

Rationale: Luteinizing hormone is responsible for maintaining the corpus luteum after ovulation. This is crucial for the production of progesterone, which helps prepare the endometrium for implantation and supports early pregnancy. Choices B, C, and D are incorrect: B is the function of follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) which stimulates the growth of ovarian follicles, C is mainly regulated by prolactin, and D is primarily associated with estrogen and progesterone.
