#### 1. A client with prostate cancer undergoes brachytherapy (radioactive
seed implantation). What nursing action has the highest priority?
A. Follow radiation exposure precautions.
B. Encourage the client to consume regular meals.
C. Collect all urine in sealed containers.
D. Avoid touching the client.
Answer: A. Follow radiation exposure precautions.
Expert Rationale:
Radiation precautions protect healthcare workers, clients, and visitors from
unnecessary exposure. Protocols generally include time, distance, and
shielding measures. For brachytherapy, staff must maintain limited,
computed exposure times near the client.

#### 2. NGN-Style Case Scenario: A home health PN visits a client with
emphysema who is oxygen-dependent and independently manages self-
care. Recent findings reveal:
- Oxygen Saturation: 91% on 2 L/min oxygen.
- Weight: 5 lbs less than the last home visit (30 days ago).
- Reported Fatigue: Unchanged since the prior visit.
- Home Environment: Disheveled with dirty dishes and clothing scattered.
, Based on this assessment, what requires immediate consultation with the
RN case manager?
A. Oxygen saturation of 91% on oxygen at 2 L/min.
B. Weight loss of 5 pounds within the past month.
C. Report of unchanged fatigue from the prior visit.
D. Disheveled appearance of the home environment.
Answer: B. Weight loss of 5 pounds within the past month.
Expert Rationale:
Unintended weight loss in clients with COPD could indicate increased
energy expenditure and nutritional deficiencies requiring urgent dietary
intervention. Oxygen saturation of 91% is expected in COPD. Fatigue and
disorganized surroundings may also result from illness but are secondary
concerns compared to potential malnutrition.

#### 3. A client with diabetes mellitus is being educated on symptoms of
diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA). Which symptoms should the PN reinforce?
(Select all that apply.)
A. Fruity breath odor.
B. Rapid, weak pulse.
C. Cold, clammy skin.
