Nursing Elites

1. Where does fertilization normally occur?

• A. Ampulla
• B. Interstitial portion
• C. Isthmus
• D. Infundibulum

Correct answer: A

Rationale: Fertilization typically occurs in the ampulla of the fallopian tube. The ampulla provides the ideal environment for fertilization due to the presence of cilia that help transport the egg and sperm, as well as the nourishing fluid within this region. The interstitial portion, isthmus, and infundibulum of the fallopian tube are not the primary sites for fertilization. The interstitial portion connects the fallopian tube to the uterine cavity, the isthmus is the narrowest part near the uterus, and the infundibulum is the funnel-shaped end near the ovary, where the egg is captured after ovulation.

2. Which of the following is not a characteristic of an ideal contraceptive?

• A. Irreversible
• B. Easily available
• C. User-friendly
• D. Effective with least side effects

Correct answer: A

Rationale: The correct answer is A: 'Irreversible.' An ideal contraceptive should not be irreversible because it should allow individuals to have the option to discontinue its use if desired. Choices B, C, and D are characteristics of an ideal contraceptive. Contraceptives should be easily available to ensure widespread accessibility, user-friendly to promote proper and consistent use, and effective with minimal side effects to maximize safety and tolerability.

3. What is included in the Quality of Care in reproductive health?

• A. Ensuring accessible services, privacy, confidentiality, and continuity of care.
• B. Providing reproductive health services only in urban areas.
• C. Ensuring that all women deliver in a hospital setting.
• D. Ensuring that reproductive health services are only provided by doctors.

Correct answer: A

Rationale: The correct answer is A. Quality of care in reproductive health encompasses ensuring accessible services, privacy, confidentiality, and continuity of care. These elements are crucial in providing comprehensive and effective reproductive health services. Choices B, C, and D are incorrect because they do not adequately address the holistic approach required for quality reproductive health care. Providing services only in urban areas limits accessibility, mandating hospital deliveries may not be suitable for all women, and restricting services to doctors only disregards the importance of a multi-disciplinary approach in reproductive health care.

4. Which of the following investigations is done in Pelvic Inflammatory Disease?

• A. Paracentesis
• B. Culdocentesis
• C. Hysterectomy
• D. Douching

Correct answer: B

Rationale: Culdocentesis is the correct procedure performed to assess the pelvic cavity, often used in the diagnosis of Pelvic Inflammatory Disease. Paracentesis involves the aspiration of fluid from the abdominal cavity, not typically done for PID. Hysterectomy is the surgical removal of the uterus and is not a diagnostic investigation for PID. Douching is a hygiene practice and not a diagnostic procedure for PID.

5. In Reproductive Health services, decision-making about RH matters is mostly done by:

• A. The Woman's parents
• B. The Man's parents
• C. The Husband
• D. The Wife

Correct answer: C

Rationale: In many societies, the husband often plays a significant role in decision-making about reproductive health matters, making choice C the correct answer. While the woman's parents might have some influence in certain cultures, the husband typically has a more direct role in such decisions. Choices A and B are less likely as the focus is on the immediate family unit rather than extended family members. Choice D, the wife, is less common in patriarchal societies where men usually have more authority in decision-making regarding reproductive health matters.
