QUESTION 1
A nurse is preparing to transfer a patient from the bed to a
chair. Which action demonstrates proper body mechanics?
A) Bending at the waist to lift the patient
B) Keeping feet together for stability
C) Positioning the chair at a 90-degree angle to the bed
D) Using a transfer belt and keeping the back straight
Correct Answer: D
Rationale: Proper body mechanics include using a transfer belt,
keeping the back straight, bending at the knees, and keeping
1
,feet shoulder-width apart. The chair should be placed at a 45-
degree angle to the bed, not 90 degrees. Bending at the waist
increases injury risk.
QUESTION 2
A patient post-hip replacement surgery is ordered to use an
abduction pillow. What is the primary purpose of this device?
A) Prevent foot drop
B) Maintain hip abduction to prevent dislocation
C) Reduce pressure on the sacrum
D) Immobilize the entire leg
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: An abduction pillow keeps the legs apart (abduction)
to prevent dislocation of a new hip prosthesis. Foot drop is
2
,prevented with foot boots. Pressure reduction uses specialty
mattresses. Immobilization is not the goal.
QUESTION 3
A nurse is assessing a patient’s risk for falls using the Morse
Fall Scale. Which finding indicates the highest risk?
A) Ambulatory with a steady gait
B) Receiving IV fluids
C) Secondary diagnosis of stroke with hemiparesis
D) Age 65 years
Correct Answer: C
Rationale: The Morse Fall Scale includes secondary diagnosis
(stroke, hemiparesis) as high risk. IV fluids alone are not a major
risk factor. Age >65 adds points but not as much as a neurologic
deficit. Steady gait lowers risk.

, QUESTION 4
A patient is placed in wrist restraints after pulling out an IV
line. Which action by the nurse is incorrect?
A) Obtaining a provider order within 15 minutes of
application
B) Tying the restraint to the bed rail
C) Removing the restraint every 2 hours for range of motion
D) Assessing the patient’s circulation and skin integrity hourly
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: Restraints must never be tied to the bed rail (can
cause injury when rail is lowered). Tie to the bed frame. Orders
must be obtained promptly (within 15-30 minutes). Remove q2h
for ROM, assess hourly.
