Nursing Elites

1. Which describe the feelings and behaviors of early preschool children related to divorce? (Select all that apply.)

• A. Regressive behavior
• B. Fear of abandonment
• C. Blame themselves for the divorce
• D. All of the above

Correct answer: D

Rationale: Preschool children may exhibit regressive behavior, fear abandonment, and blame themselves for their parents' divorce due to their limited understanding of the situation.

2. Which actions by the nurse demonstrate overinvolvement with patients and their families? (Select all that apply.)

• A. Buying clothes for the patients
• B. Showing favoritism toward a patient
• C. All
• D. Spending off-duty time with patients and families

Correct answer: C

Rationale: Overinvolvement includes personal actions like buying clothes, showing favoritism, and spending off-duty time with patients, which can blur professional boundaries.

3. The parents of a child with acute postinfectious glomerulonephritis (APIGN) ask how they will know that the condition is improving. How should the nurse respond?

• A. Your child’s urine output will increase, and the urine will become less brown in color.
• B. Your child will rest more comfortably.
• C. Your child’s appetite will decrease.
• D. Your child’s laboratory test values will show increased BUN.

Correct answer: A

Rationale: Improvement in APIGN is indicated by an increase in urine output and a change in urine color from brown (due to hematuria) to a more normal appearance. This reflects a reduction in glomerular inflammation and improved kidney function. Choice B is incorrect because resting more comfortably is not a direct indicator of kidney function improvement. Choice C is incorrect because a decrease in appetite is not typically associated with improvement in APIGN. Choice D is incorrect because an increased BUN value would suggest worsening kidney function rather than improvement.

4. Which clinical manifestations should the nurse expect in a child diagnosed with nephroblastoma?

• A. Atrial fibrillation
• B. Endocarditis
• C. Hyperlipidemia
• D. Hypertension

Correct answer: D

Rationale: The correct answer is D: Hypertension. Nephroblastoma, also known as Wilms' tumor, often causes hypertension due to its impact on the kidney, which plays a role in regulating blood pressure. Atrial fibrillation (choice A) and endocarditis (choice B) are not typically associated with nephroblastoma. Hyperlipidemia (choice C) is also not a common clinical manifestation of nephroblastoma.

5. The nurse is providing anticipatory guidance to parents of a 4-month-old infant on preventing an aspiration injury. What should the nurse include in the teaching?

• A. Keep baby powder out of reach.
• B. Inspect toys for removable parts.
• C. Allow the infant to take a bottle to bed.
• D. Teething biscuits can be used for teething discomfort.

Correct answer: A

Rationale: Baby powder can be inhaled by the infant and cause respiratory distress. Toys should be inspected to prevent choking hazards. Allowing an infant to take a bottle to bed can increase the risk of aspiration, and hard foods like teething biscuits should be given with caution.
