Latest 2026 Edition – 80+ Question Topic Test for Nursing Students
SECTION 1: Fundamentals of Nursing (Questions 1–12)
1. A nurse is preparing to insert an indwelling urinary catheter. Which of the
following actions is most important to reduce the risk of infection?
• A. Apply sterile gloves before opening the catheter kit
• B. Maintain sterile technique throughout the procedure
• C. Use the smallest catheter size available
• D. Inflate the balloon with sterile water before insertion
Rationale: Maintaining sterile technique is critical to prevent introducing bacteria
into the bladder. The other steps are correct but secondary to aseptic technique.
2. A client is on fall precautions. Which nursing action should be implemented
first?
• A. Place the bed in the lowest position
• B. Perform a falls risk assessment
• C. Apply a yellow wristband
, • D. Keep the call light within reach
Rationale: Assessment always comes before intervention. The Morse scale or
Hendrich II model guides subsequent precautions.
(Questions 3–12 continue in this format; only key samples shown for brevity. Full
set available upon request.)
SECTION 2: Pharmacology & Medication Administration (Q13–25)
13. A nurse administers digoxin to a client with heart failure. Which finding
requires immediate action?
• A. Heart rate of 62 bpm
• B. Nausea and blurred yellow vision
• C. Serum potassium of 4.0 mEq/L
• D. Apical pulse of 78 bpm
Rationale: Nausea + yellow vision = digoxin toxicity. Potassium level is normal.
HR <60 is a concern but nausea/vision changes are more specific to toxicity.
14. A client is prescribed enoxaparin (Lovenox). Which statement by the client
indicates understanding?
• A. “I will take this pill with food.”
• B. “I can stop it if I see bruises.”
• C. “I will not take aspirin while on this drug.”
• D. “I will inject it into my deltoid muscle.”
Rationale: Enoxaparin is a low-molecular-weight heparin given subcutaneously
(abdomen). Aspirin increases bleeding risk. Never stop abruptly.
SECTION 3: Medical-Surgical Nursing (Q26–45)
26. A client with COPD has an SpO2 of 88%. Priority action?
