Nursing Elites

1. During the counseling session, you can also use the acronym, CLEAR. The letter E stands for:

• A. Encourage and assure the client of effective use of the method
• B. Explain how to use the method
• C. Tell the client about modern FP methods available, and discuss each in detail
• D. Explain all possible complications

Correct answer: B

Rationale: The correct answer is B: 'Explain how to use the method.' In the acronym CLEAR, the letter E specifically refers to explaining how to use the method, emphasizing the importance of providing clear instructions and guidance to the client. Choices A, C, and D are incorrect because they do not accurately represent what the letter E stands for in the given context. Encouraging and assuring the client, discussing modern FP methods in detail, and explaining possible complications are important aspects of counseling but do not align with the specific focus of 'Explain how to use the method,' as indicated by the acronym.

2. When does threatened abortion occur?

• A. The patient experiences slight vaginal bleeding through an undilated cervix.
• B. The patient experiences heavy bleeding and cervical dilation.
• C. The patient experiences severe cramping and heavy bleeding.
• D. The patient experiences painless bleeding and an open cervix.

Correct answer: A

Rationale: Threatened abortion occurs when the patient experiences slight vaginal bleeding through an undilated cervix. This is characterized by bleeding without cervical dilation, distinguishing it from inevitable abortion (heavy bleeding and cervical dilation), incomplete abortion (severe cramping and heavy bleeding), and missed abortion (painless bleeding and an open cervix).

3. During menopause, what do ovaries stop producing?

• A. Progesterone and Estrogen
• B. Prolactin
• C. Human chorionic gonadotropin
• D. Oxytocin

Correct answer: A

Rationale: During menopause, the ovaries stop producing progesterone and estrogen. Progesterone and estrogen are hormones essential for the menstrual cycle and reproductive functions. Prolactin is a hormone responsible for milk production in the breasts and is not primarily produced by the ovaries. Human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG) is produced during pregnancy to support the production of progesterone and estrogen. Oxytocin is a hormone involved in labor and breastfeeding, not primarily produced by the ovaries.

4. What prompted Zambia to implement family planning services?

• A. The nation started to experience the effects of rapid population growth on the economy and individual welfare.
• B. Donors provided free family planning pills.
• C. Mothers were delivering twice a year.
• D. There were too many abortions.

Correct answer: A

Rationale: The correct answer is A. Rapid population growth's impact on the economy and individual welfare prompted Zambia to implement family planning services. This is because a rapidly growing population can strain resources, lead to unemployment, poverty, and inadequate access to healthcare. Choice B is incorrect because the provision of free family planning pills by donors may have been a subsequent intervention rather than the initial reason for implementing family planning services. Choice C is irrelevant as the frequency of deliveries by mothers does not directly relate to the implementation of family planning services. Choice D is also incorrect as high abortion rates may be a consequence of inadequate family planning services rather than the reason for their implementation.

5. What is the primary use of Bromocriptine?

• A. Relieve constriction ring.
• B. Manage post-partum hemorrhage.
• C. Affect milk production.
• D. Be used in pre-eclampsia.

Correct answer: C

Rationale: Bromocriptine is primarily used to affect milk production. It is a medication commonly prescribed to help suppress lactation, particularly in cases of postpartum breast engorgement or when stopping breastfeeding. Choices A, B, and D are incorrect as Bromocriptine is not indicated for relieving constriction ring, managing post-partum hemorrhage, or treating pre-eclampsia.
