Interviewing a client in the emergency department.
5
Obtaining the blood pressure of a client who is human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) positive
Personal protective equipment (PPE) should be used because the newborn is covered
with amniotic fluid and maternal blood. PPE should be used because the nurse
may be exposed to blood and fluid that are contained in the portable wound drainage
system. PPE is not required for a back rub; there is no indication that the nurse is in
contact with body secretions. PPE is not necessary when conducting an interview
because it is unlikely that the nurse will come in contact with the client's body
fluids. PPE is not necessary when obtaining the blood pressure of a client, even if the

A health care provider prescribes a standard walker (pick-up walker with
rubber tips on all four legs). The nurse identifies what clinical findings that
indicate the client is capable of using a standard walker?
1
Weak upper arm strength and impaired stamina
2
Weight bearing as tolerated and unilateral paralysis
3
Partial weight bearing on the affected extremity and kyphosis
Correct4
Strong upper arm strength and non–weight bearing on the affected extremity
A walker with four rubber tips on the legs requires more upper body strength than a
rolling walker. A client who is non–weight bearing on the affected extremity is able to
use
a standard walker. A rolling walker is more appropriate for a client with weak upper
arm strength and impaired stamina who is less able to lift up and move a walker
with four rubber tips. A client with unilateral paralysis is not a candidate for a
standard walker; the client must be able to grip and lift the walker with both upper
extremities and move the walker forward. A rolling walker is more appropriate for

4

To prevent footdrop (plantar flexion of the foot due to weakness or paralysis of the
anterior muscles of the lower leg) in a client with a cast, the foot should be
supported with 90 degrees of flexion. Bed rest can cause footdrop, and 45 degrees is
not enough flexion to prevent footdrop . Applying an elastic stocking for support
also will not prevent footdrop; a firmer support is required.
Test-Taking Tip: On a test day, eat a normal meal before going to school. If the
test is late in the morning, take a high-protein snack with you to eat 20 minutes
before the examination. The brain works best when it has the glucose necessary

What should the nurse include in dietary teaching for a client with a colostomy?
1
Liquids should be limited to 1 L per day.
2
Non-digestible fiber and fruits should be eliminated.
3
A formed stool is an indicator of constipation.
Correct4
The diet should be adjusted to include foods that result in manageable stools.
Each person will need to experiment with diet after a colostomy to determine what
foods are best tolerated and also produce stools that are manageable, depending on
the type of colostomy. Liquids are typically not limited unless there is a specific
reason such as cardiac or renal disease. Food high in fiber such as fruit should be
included in the diet as tolerated.
Depending on the type of colostomy and the diet, a formed stool is acceptable and
does not indicate a constipating diet.
STUDY TIP: Remember that intelligence plays a vital role in your ability to learn.
