Health Nursing
1. A Nurse Is Providing Education To A 14-Year-Old Patient During A Wellness
Visit. According To The American College Of Obstetricians And Gynecologists
(Acog), Which Of The Following Is The Primary Reason For A Person Of This
Age To See A Gynecologic Health-Care Provider?
A. To Receive A First Papanicolaou (Pap) Smear
B. To Discuss Normal Hormonal Changes And Menstrual Cycle Issues
C. To Initiate Permanent Sterilization Procedures
D. To Undergo Screening For Menopause
Correct Answer: B
Rationales: Acog Recommends That Persons Assigned Female At Birth (Afab)
See A Gynecologic Provider Between Ages 13 And 15 To Discuss Hormonal
Changes And Menstruation. Pap Smears, Sterilization, And Menopause
Screenings Are Not The Primary Focus For This Age Group.
2. A Nurse Is Caring For A Newborn In The Initial Recovery Period. According To
Standard Professional Staffing Guidelines For Perinatal Units, What Is The
Expected
Nurse-To-Patient Ratio For This Newborn?
A. One Nurse To One Newborn
B. One Nurse To Four Newborns
C. One Nurse To Two Parent-Baby Couplets
D. One Nurse To Six Stable Newborns
Correct Answer: A
Rationales: The Textbook Specifies That A Newborn Should Have One-To-
One Nursing Care During The Initial Recovery Period To Ensure Safety And
Quality. Ratios Of 1:4 Or 1:2 Couplets Are Appropriate For Later Postpartum
Care But Not The Immediate Recovery Period.
3. A Nurse Manager Is Reviewing "Errors Of Omission" Within A Labor And Birth
Unit. Which Of The Following Documented Actions Represents An Error Of
Omission?
A. Administering An Incorrect Dose Of An Antihypertensive Medication
B. Failing To Record A Patient’s Intake And Output Measures
