1. Most adults with human immunodeficiency virus will exhibit which of the following laboratory values?

Correct answer: D

Rationale:

2. A post-operative client with a sutured abdominal incision felt a sharp abdominal pain after having a bowel movement. Upon inspection, the nurse notices bowel protruding from the incision site. What does the nurse tell the physician about the event?

Correct answer: A

Rationale:

3. The nurses assess the client's pain prior to completing a dressing change. The client says his current pain is 5/10, but he has pain of 10/10 when his dressing is changed. What is the priority intervention for this client?

Correct answer: C

Rationale:

4. A client has sustained an open fracture. What nursing intervention will best prevent osteomyelitis in this client?

Correct answer: C

Rationale: Proper hand hygiene is crucial in preventing infections such as osteomyelitis in clients with open fractures. Keeping the hands clean helps reduce the risk of introducing harmful pathogens to the wound site. Delegating all client personal care to specific unlicensed assistive personnel (Choice A) is not appropriate as direct involvement in wound care is essential in preventing infections. Placing the client in contact precautions (Choice B) is not directly related to preventing osteomyelitis in this context. Administering pain medication (Choice D) is important for managing the client's pain but does not directly address the prevention of osteomyelitis.

5. What are signs of hearing loss? (Select all that apply)

Correct answer: C

Rationale: Signs of hearing loss include tinnitus, frequent asking to repeat statements, and shouting in conversations.
