Nursing Elites

1. Urinary tract anomalies are frequently associated with what irregularities in fetal development?

• A. Myelomeningocele
• B. Cardiovascular anomalies
• C. Malformed or low-set ears
• D. Defects in lower extremities

Correct answer: C

Rationale: Malformed or low-set ears are often associated with congenital urinary tract anomalies, as both the ears and kidneys develop around the same time during fetal growth. Myelomeningocele, cardiovascular anomalies, and lower extremity defects are less commonly associated with UT anomalies.

2. The nurse is aware that if patients from different cultures are implied to be inferior, the emotional attitude the nurse is displaying is what?

• A. Acculturation
• B. Ethnocentrism
• C. Cultural shock
• D. Cultural sensitivity

Correct answer: B

Rationale: Ethnocentrism is the belief that one's own culture is superior to others, which can lead to bias and a lack of cultural competence in healthcare.

3. The nurse is performing an otoscopic examination on a child. Which are normal findings the nurse should expect? (Select all that apply.)

• A. All below
• B. A well-defined light reflex
• C. A small, round, concave spot near the center of the drum
• D. The tympanic membrane is a nontransparent grayish color

Correct answer: A

Rationale: A well-defined light reflex, a small concave spot, and a grayish, nontransparent tympanic membrane are normal findings during an otoscopic examination in a child.

4. A 12-month-old child presents to the clinic for a well visit after missing several appointments. The child began her immunization schedule but has missed several follow-up appointments and doses of immunizations. What is the most appropriate nursing intervention?

• A. Administer initial immunizations from the beginning of the schedule.
• B. The child cannot receive missed immunizations if the schedule is not followed and will not be vaccinated.
• C. The child should only receive the missed doses of immunizations based on the catch-up schedule.
• D. The child should receive double-strength immunizations at this well visit.

Correct answer: C

Rationale: Children who began primary immunization at the recommended age but fail to receive all the doses do not need to begin the series again but should receive only the missed doses. The child may receive missed vaccinations on a catch-up schedule per CDC guidelines.

5. Which type of family should the nurse recognize when the paternal grandmother, the parents, and two minor children live together?

• A. Blended
• B. Nuclear
• C. Extended
• D. Binuclear

Correct answer: C

Rationale: An extended family includes relatives such as grandparents, aunts, uncles, and other extended family members living together, beyond just the nuclear family unit.
