Question 1

A 35-year-old female with a history of migraines presents to the
clinic with worsening symptoms for the past few weeks. She
reports waking up at night with headaches and nausea. Her only
medication history is oral contraceptive pills (OCPs). Otherwise,
she states she is healthy. Which of the following actions if taken
by the NP is the best next step?

A) Order an MRI of the brain immediately
B) Discontinue the oral contraceptive pills
C) Take a further history and perform a very careful neurological
exam
D) Prescribe a stronger migraine medication

Answer: C) Take a further history and perform a very careful
neurological exam

Rationale: Worsening headaches, especially those that wake the
patient at night, require thorough investigation. Oral

,contraceptive pills can increase the risk of cerebrovascular events,
so a careful neurological exam (C) is essential to rule out serious
pathology. Ordering an MRI (A) without further assessment is
premature. Discontinuing OCPs (B) may be considered later but is
not the first step. Prescribing stronger medication (D) without
further evaluation could mask underlying pathology.


Question 2

A grandmother is accompanying her 9-year-old granddaughter
during a routine physical examination. She asks you privately if
her granddaughter has started puberty yet. During the
examination, the NP notes asymmetric projection of the areola
and nipple of the right chest to form a secondary mound above
the level of the breast. The left breast is underdeveloped. These
assessment findings are consistent with which Tanner Stage of
development?

A) I
B) II
C) III
D) IV

Answer: D) IV

, Rationale: Tanner Stage IV (D) is characterized by projection of
the areola and nipple to form a secondary mound above the level
of the breast. Stage I (A) is prepubertal. Stage II (B) shows breast
bud elevation with enlargement of areola. Stage III (C) shows
further enlargement with no separation of contours. Asymmetric
breast development is common and usually resolves.


Question 3

Primary prevention is defined as which of the following?

A) Interventions designed to prevent disease
B) Early detection and treatment of disease
C) Rehabilitation and restoration of function
D) Screening for early signs of disease

Answer: A) Interventions designed to prevent disease

Rationale: Primary prevention (A) includes interventions to
prevent disease from occurring, such as immunizations and health
education. Secondary prevention (B, D) involves early detection
and screening. Tertiary prevention (C) focuses on rehabilitation
and restoration of function.
