Ricci Chapter 4 - Test Bank - 4th Edition
Questions & 100% correct Answers-
Latest Test | Graded A+ | Passed
1. After discussing various methods of contraception with a client and her partner, the nurse

determines that the teaching was successful when they identify which contraceptive method as

providing protection against sexually transmitted infections (STIs)?

A. oral contraceptives

B. tubal ligation

C. condoms

D. intrauterine system

Ξ -:- Answer: C

Rationale: Condoms are a barrier method of contraception. In addition to providing a physical

barrier for sperm, they also protect against STIs. Oral contraceptives, tubal ligation, and

intrauterine systems provide no protection against STIs.



2. When discussing contraceptive options, the nurse would recommend which option as being

the most reliable?

A. coitus interruptus

B. lactational amenorrheal method (LAM)

C. natural family planning

D. intrauterine system

Ξ -:- Answer: D

Rationale: An intrauterine system is the most reliable method because users have to consciously
discontinue using them to become pregnant rather than making a proactive decision to avoid
conception. Coitus interruptus, LAM, and natural family planning are behavioral methods of
contraception and require active participation of the couple to prevent pregnancy. These

behavioral methods must be followed exactly as prescribed.



3. A client comes to the clinic with abdominal pain. Based on her history the nurse suspects

endometriosis. The nurse expects to prepare the client for which evaluatory method to confirm

this suspicion?

A. pelvic examination

B. transvaginal ultrasound

C. laparoscopy

D. hysterosalpingogram

Ξ -:- Answer: C

Rationale: The only certain method of diagnosing endometriosis is by seeing it. Therefore, the

nurse would expect to prepare the client for a laparoscopy to confirm the diagnosis. A pelvic

examination and transvaginal ultrasound are done to assess for endometriosis but do not confirm

its presence. Hysterosalpingography aids in identifying tubal problems resulting in infertility.



4. The nurse discusses various contraceptive methods with a client and her partner. Which

method would the nurse explain as being available only by prescription?

A. condom

B. spermicide

C. diaphragm

D. basal body temperature

Ξ -:- Answer: C

Rationale: The diaphragm is available only by prescription and must be professionally fitted by a

health care provider. Condoms and spermicides are available over the counter. Basal body

temperature requires the use of a special thermometer that is available over the counter.



5. When developing a teaching plan for a couple who are considering contraception options, the

nurse would include which statement?

A. "You should select one that is considered to be 100% effective."

B. "The best one is the one that is the least expensive and most convenient."

C. "A good contraceptive doesn't require a primary care provider's prescription."

D. "The best contraceptive is one that you will use correctly and consistently."

Ξ -:- Answer: D

Rationale: For a contraceptive to be most effective, the client must be able to use it correctly and
