Type: MCSA Difficulty Level:

Calculator: false

Question Stem
The nurse is teaching a class to women who were recently diagnosed with benign breast disease (BBD),
commonly known as fibrocystic breast disease. One of the participants reports increased swelling, pain, and
pressure in her breasts just before menstruation. What is the best response by the nurse?

Stimulus

Answer
“Consider asking your nurse practitioner about adding a mild diuretic to your
Choice 1
regimen.”
Treatment of BBD may include taking a mild diuretic during the week prior to
Rationale 1 the onset of menses to counteract fluid retention, relieve pressure in the breast,
and help decrease pain.
Answer 1 true
Choice 2 “The pain may be caused by thinning of the normal breast tissue.”
The pathology of BBD involves fibrosis, which is a thickening of the normal
Rationale 2
breast tissue.
Answer 2 false
“Breast swelling and pressure are expected symptoms, but pain is abnormal
Choice 3
and should be evaluated by your physician.”
Common symptoms associated with BBD include cyclical breast pain,
Rationale 3
tenderness, and swelling.
Answer 3 false
Choice 4 “It's best to make an appointment with an oncologist.”
Cyclical breast pain, swelling, and tenderness are common symptoms

Question 139318
Id: 139318 Question Title:

Type: MCSA Difficulty Level:

Calculator: false

Question Stem
The nurse is caring for a patient diagnosed with endometriosis. Which statement by the patient requires
immediate follow-up?

Stimulus

Answer
Choice 1 “I am having many hot flashes since I had the Lupron injection.”
Leuprolide acetate (Lupron) is a GnRH agonist and causes symptoms of a
Rationale 1 hypo-estrogenic state (hot flashes, vaginal dryness, decreased libido, and bone
density loss). Hot flashes are expected and not a complication.
Answer 1 false
Choice 2 “The pain I experience with intercourse is becoming more severe.”
Dyspareunia is a common symptom of endometriosis and therefore is not a
Rationale 2
complication.
Answer 2 false
“My leg has become painful and swollen since I started taking birth control
Choice 3
pills.”
Combination oral contraceptive pills contain estrogen. A painful, swollen
lower extremity can be a sign of deep vein thrombosis, which can cause
Rationale 3
thromboembolus, which is potentially life threatening. This is a complication
and must be addressed immediately.
Answer 3 true
Choice 4 “I’ve noticed my voice is lower since I started taking danazol.”
Danocrine (danazol) is a testosterone derivative that suppresses GnRH and has
Rationale 4 high-androgen and low-estrogen effects. A lowered voice is one side effect of
danazol. This patient is not experiencing a complication.

Question 139330
Id: 139330 Question Title:

Type: MCMA Difficulty Level:

Calculator: false

Question Stem
The nurse is discharging a patient after hospitalization for pelvic inflammatory disease (PID). Which statements
indicate that teaching was effective?

Standard Text
Select all that apply.

Stimulus

Answer
Choice 1 “I might have infertility because of this infection.”
Women sometimes become infertile because of scarring in the fallopian tubes
Rationale 1
as a result of the inflammation of PID.
Answer 1 true
Choice 2 “It is important for me to finish my antibiotics.”
Antibiotic therapy should always be completed when a patient is diagnosed
Rationale 2
with any infection.
Answer 2 true
Choice 3 “Tubal pregnancy could occur after PID.”
The tubal scarring that occurs from tubal inflammation during PID can prevent
Rationale 3 a fertilized ovum from passing through the tube into the uterus, causing an
ectopic or tubal pregnancy.
Answer 3 true
Choice 4 “My PID was caused by a yeast infection.”
PID is caused by bacteria, most commonly Chlamydia trachomatis or Neisseria
Rationale 4 gonorrhoeae. Yeast infections do not ascend and become upper reproductive
tract infections.
Answer 4 false
Choice 5 “I am going to have an IUD placed for contraception.”
An intrauterine device (IUD) in place increases the risk of developing PID; a
Rationale 5
patient who has a history of PID is not a good candidate for an IUD.
Answer 5 false

Which of the following diagnostic tests would the nurse question when ordered for a patient diagnosed with
pelvic inflammatory disease (PID)?

Stimulus

Answer

Rationale 1 CBC with differential will give an indication of the severity of the infection.
Answer 1 false
Choice 2 Vaginal culture for Neisseria gonorrhoeae
Rationale 2 Gonorrhea is a common cause of PID, and the patient should be tested for this.
Answer 2 false
Choice 3 Throat culture for Streptococcus A
Rationale 3 Streptococcus of the throat is not associated with PID.
Answer 3 true
Choice 4 RPR (rapid plasma reagin)
Rationale 4 RPR is a test for syphilis, another cause of PID.

Question 139332
Id: 139332 Question Title:

Type: MCSA Difficulty Level:

Calculator: false

Question Stem
The nurse is to tell a patient that her Pap smear result was abnormal. Which statement should the nurse include?

Stimulus

Answer
Choice 1 “The Pap smear is used to diagnose cervical cancer.”
The Pap smear is a screening tool for cervical abnormalities; it is not
Rationale 1
diagnostic.
Answer 1 false
Choice 2 “A loop electrosurgical excision procedure (LEEP) is needed.”
Although LEEP (the removal of the surface tissue of the cervix) might be
Rationale 2 performed to treat cervical dysplasia or carcinoma in situ, this patient has not
had a diagnostic examination yet.
Answer 2 false
Choice 3 “Colposcopy to further examine your cervix is the next step.”
Colposcopy is an examination of the cervix through a magnifying device.
Solutions are often painted onto the cervix and surrounding tissue and
observed for changes secondary to the application of the solution. Biopsy
Rationale 3
samples are taken of suspected abnormal tissue and sent for pathologic
examination and diagnosis. Endocervical canal biopsy is often undertaken with
colposcopy.
Answer 3 true
Choice 4 “Your cervix needs to be treated with cryotherapy.”
Cryotherapy, or freezing of the cervix, is one treatment option for precancerous
Rationale 4 cervical lesions. However, this patient does not yet have a diagnosis; she has
only had an abnormal screening test.

Question 139333
Id: 139333 Question Title:

Type: MCSA Difficulty Level:

Calculator: false

Question Stem
The nurse is preparing an education session for women on prevention of urinary tract infections (UTIs). Which
statement should be included?

Stimulus

Answer
Choice 1 Lower urinary tract infections rarely occur in women.
About 60% of women will experience an episode of cystitis during their
Rationale 1
lifetime.
Answer 1 false
Choice 2 The most common causative organism of cystitis is E. coli.
Because E. coli is a common bacterium in the bowel and the female urethra is
Rationale 2 short and close to the anus, cross-contamination of bowel bacteria into the
female urinary tract is common.
Answer 2 true
Choice 3 Wiping from back to front after a BM will help prevent a UTI.
Wiping from back to front increases the risk of UTIs because the E. coli of the
Rationale 3 bowel is being drawn towards the urethra. Women should be instructed always
to wipe from front to back.
Answer 3 false
Choice 4 Back pain often develops with a lower urinary tract infection.
Low back or flank pain is a sign of pylonephritis, which is an upper urinary
Rationale 4 tract infection. Signs of a lower UTI include dysuria, urinary frequency, and
urinary urgency.
