NUR 3306 FINAL GUIDE QUIZZES 5-11 2024/2025 COMPLETE QUESTIONS WITH CORRECT ANSWERS GUARANTEED PASS | RATED A+ When percussing the scapula of a client, which of the following would the nurse expect... to hear? - Answer>>> CorrectC. Flatness Response Feedback: Normally, percussion over the scapula elicits flat tones. Resonance is heard over the normal lung tissue. Dullness is heard when fluid or solid tissue replaces air in the lung. Hyperresonance is elicited in cases of trapped air, such as in emphysema or pneumothorax. A client with an acute appendicitis is ordered a barium enema. What should the nurse do first? - Answer>>> Correct Question the order because you thought a barium enema was contraindicated in cases like this. The nurse is assessing a client and notes dullness to percussion in the lowest point of the abdomen. When rolling the client to the left, the nurse notes that there is now dullness on the left side. This indicates ascites, which can be caused by - Answer>>> CorrectA. Cirrhosis and nephrosis D. Congestive heart failure and coronary artery disease Response Feedback: Ascites is the accumulation of fluid in the abdomen. The fluid descends with gravity, resulting in dullness to percussion in the lowest point of the abdomen based on client position. Changing the client's position should move the fluid shift to the most dependent point. Ascites occurs in cirrhosis of the liver, congestive heart failure, nephrosis, peritonitis, and metastatic neoplasms. The other options are distracters to the question. Why is the appearance of urine important to evaluate during an abdominal exam? - Answer>>> Correct Dark urine could indicate dehydration. When assessing the extremities of a client, the nurse notes muscle atrophy. What does the nurse know may be the cause? - Answer>>> CorrectB. Peripheral arterial disease Response Feedback: Peripheral arterial disease may result in muscle atrophy. Hypertrophy may result from activity in which the patient uses one arm more than the other, such as tennis. Muscle atrophy is not caused by chronic lymphedema, venous insufficiency, or arterial aneurysm. When assessing cranial nerves IX and X, which of the following would the nurse consider as an abnormal finding? - Answer>>> CorrectD. Impaired swallowing. Response Feedback: Normal findings associated with testing cranial never IX and cranial nerve X include a uvula and soft palate rising bilaterally and symmetrically on phonation. A stationary or asymmetrical soft palate or deviation of the uvula would be considered an abnormal finding. [Show More]
