Introduction:
This comprehensive Kaplan PN Fundamentals Examination (Versions A, B, C, & D) is
designed to evaluate the knowledge, clinical judgment, and critical thinking skills
,essential for successful completion of practical nursing programs and readiness for
the NCLEX-PN licensure examination. The assessment covers a broad spectrum of
topics including safe and effective care environment, health promotion, psychosocial
integrity, physiological integrity, pharmacological therapies, and reduction of risk
potential. Candidates will encounter multiple-choice questions that require
application of theoretical knowledge to real-world clinical scenarios. Emphasis is
placed on prioritization, delegation, client safety, and evidence-based practice. This
examination demonstrates readiness to provide safe, effective, patient-centered care
and to pass the NCLEX-PN on the first attempt.
VERSION A: QUESTIONS 1-100
1. A nurse is caring for a client who has dementia. Which of the following actions
should the nurse take to promote communication?
A. Speak in a loud voice
B. Face the client at eye level when communicating
C. Use complex sentences
D. Approach the client from behind
B. Face the client at eye level when communicating
RATIONALE: Facing the client at eye level reduces intimidation and helps the
client focus on nonverbal cues. Eye contact helps establish rapport and trust with
the client who has dementia and shows respect and attention. Loud voice and
complex sentences can increase confusion, and approaching from behind can
startle the client.
2. A nurse is contributing to the plan of care for a client who is postoperative
following a below-the-knee amputation. Which of the following strategies should
the nurse include to help the client progress toward acceptance of this body
image alteration?
,A. Suggest the client wear facility clothing until the prosthesis fitting
B. Encourage the client to visit with someone who has had an amputation
C. Discourage the client from touching the residual limb for the first week
D. Reassure the client that the rehabilitation program is optional
B. Encourage the client to visit with someone who has had an amputation
RATIONALE: Visiting with someone who has had an amputation can help the
client cope with the loss of a body part and learn from the experience of others who
have gone through a similar situation. This peer support strategy promotes
acceptance and adaptation.
3. A nurse in a provider's office is reinforcing teaching with a client about
performing testicular self-examination. Which of the following instructions
should the nurse include?
A. Perform the self-examination every 3 months
B. Examine the testicles after a warm shower
C. Palpate both testicles firmly with fingertips
D. Apply a cool compress to the scrotum prior to examination
B. Examine the testicles after a warm shower
RATIONALE: A warm shower relaxes the scrotum and the muscles holding the
testicles, making the exam easier. Self-examination should be performed monthly,
with a gentle touch, not firm palpation or cool compresses.
4. A nurse is caring for a client who is receiving oxygen via nasal cannula at 4
L/min. Which of the following actions should the nurse take?
A. Use a humidifier to moisten the dry oxygen
B. Position the cannula prongs curving upward in the nose
C. Clean the cannula prongs daily
D. Keep the oxygen tubing off the floor
, C. Clean the cannula prongs daily
RATIONALE: The nasal cannula can become contaminated with bacteria and
mucus, which can cause infection and irritation of the nasal mucosa. Cleaning the
cannula prongs daily with soap and water prevents these complications. Humidifiers
are typically used for flow rates higher than 4 L/min, and prongs should curve
downward.
5. A nurse on a postpartum unit is caring for a group of clients. Which of the
following clients is the nurse's priority?
A. A client who is 2 days postpartum and whose fundus is 2 to 4 cm below the
umbilicus
B. A client who is 3 days postpartum and has not had a bowel movement since prior
to admission
C. A client who is 4 days postpartum and has lochia serosa
D. A client who is 1 day postpartum and has not voided in 8 hours
D. A client who is 1 day postpartum and has not voided in 8 hours
RATIONALE: This client is at risk of urinary retention, bladder distension, and
infection due to the effects of epidural anesthesia, perineal trauma, and fluid shifts
after delivery. The other findings are normal postpartum occurrences.
6. A nurse is assisting with the care of a client who is in labor with ruptured
membranes and has herpes simplex virus with active lesions. Which of the
following actions should the nurse take?
A. Prepare for an amnioinfusion
B. Prepare the client for a cesarean birth
