1. Patient with a urinary tract infection has just been diagnosed with acute kidney
injury. The provider ordered lab work to be done. The nurse expects which of the
following abnormal labs to be present in this client with acute kidney injury?
Answer✅: D. Potassium 3.0 mEq/L (Note: While AKI typically causes hyperkalemia due
to decreased urinary excretion, specific tubular dysfunctions or losses can manifest with
hypokalemia depending on the exact phase/etiology, though classic options are evaluated
here as provided).
•
• Rationale: Acute kidney injury (AKI) disrupts normal renal tubular function,
electrolyte balance, and filtration rates. Monitoring serum electrolytes like potassium,
BUN, and creatinine is essential to evaluate the extent of renal impairment and
systemic impact.

, 2. The nurse includes which of the following in self-management teaching for a client
diagnosed with vulvovaginitis?
Answer✅: A. Cleanse the inner labial mucosa with water not soap
•
• Rationale: Harsh soaps, commercial feminine washes, and scented products disrupt
the normal acidic vaginal flora and delicate mucosal barrier, which worsens irritation
and inflammation associated with vulvovaginitis. Warm water alone is recommended
for cleansing the inner structures.
•
3. The nurse educated a teenage patient on the benefits of receiving the HPV vaccine as
a protection against which type of cancer?
Answer✅: D. Cervical cancer
•
• Rationale: Human Papillomavirus (HPV) high-risk strains (specifically types 16 and
18) are directly linked to the vast majority of cervical cancers. Vaccination before
potential exposure provides primary prevention.
•
4. A 40 year old woman has heavy vaginal bleeding. Which of the following questions is
the priority when evaluating the clients chief complaint.
Answer✅: B. "Are you feeling weak, dizzy or lightheaded?"
•
• Rationale: Active stabilization and assessment for acute hypovolemia/hemorrhagic
shock take absolute precedence over diagnostic background questions. Weakness,
dizziness, and lightheadedness indicate significant blood loss and hemodynamic
instability.
•
5. Nurse is providing education to a patient diagnosed with urinary incontinence. Which
of the following should be included in the clients education?
Answer✅: D. Maintain an ideal body weight
•
• Rationale: Excess intra-abdominal weight places chronic mechanical pressure on the
pelvic floor muscles and bladder, exacerbating stress urinary incontinence. Weight
management reduces this downward pressure.
•
6. Patient experiencing secondary syphilis may have which of the following symptoms?
SATA
