A clinic nurse is planning to teach a group of clients about laryngeal cancer.

The nurse should include which of the following risk factors associated with the development of laryngeal cancer? Select all that apply.

Client uses chewing tobacco every day.

Client is an industrial-commercial painter.

Client is an ultrasound technician.

Client wears magnetic healing bracelets.

Client’s husband smokes cigarettes.

Answer and Explanation

Correct Answer : A,B,E

Choice A rationale
Using chewing tobacco every day is a significant risk factor for laryngeal cancer. Tobacco contains many carcinogens, which can damage the cells in the larynx and lead to cancer.
Choice B rationale
Being an industrial-commercial painter is associated with an increased risk of laryngeal cancer. This is likely due to exposure to certain chemicals and toxins that are used in paints and other materials.
Choice C rationale
Being an ultrasound technician is not typically associated with an increased risk of laryngeal cancer. Ultrasound technicians are not generally exposed to the types of toxins or risk factors that are associated with laryngeal cancer.
Choice D rationale
Wearing magnetic healing bracelets is not associated with an increased risk of laryngeal cancer. There is no scientific evidence to suggest that these bracelets have any effect on cancer risk.
Choice E rationale
Having a spouse who smokes cigarettes is a risk factor for laryngeal cancer. Secondhand smoke, also known as passive smoke, contains many of the same carcinogens as the smoke inhaled by smokers. Exposure to secondhand smoke can increase a person’s risk of developing laryngeal cancer.

Correct Answer is B

Explanation

Choice A rationale
Reports routinely listing the identification number of any equipment involved is not a problem. This is a standard practice in incident reporting as it helps in identifying and tracking the equipment involved in the incident.
Choice B rationale
Reports routinely omitting the names of witnesses to the occurrence is a problem that should be reported to the risk manager. Witnesses can provide crucial information about the incident, and their statements can help in understanding the sequence of events and identifying the root cause of the incident.
Choice C rationale
Reports being completed within 24 hours after the incident is not a problem. Timely reporting of incidents is crucial for accurate recall of events and immediate initiation of corrective actions.
Choice D rationale
Reports routinely including the client’s hospital number is not a problem. This is a standard practice in incident reporting as it helps in identifying and tracking the patient involved in the incident.

A. “If you keep interrupting me, I’ll report you to our supervisor for disciplinary action.”. B. “You always interrupt me when I’m talking. Can’t you see how disrespectful that is?” C. “I can’t work with someone who constantly takes over conversations. You need to find another partner.”. D. “I feel frustrated when you interrupt me. It’s important for us to take turns speaking during patient discussions.”.

Correct Answer is D

Explanation

Choice A rationale
This response is more threatening than assertive. Threatening disciplinary action does not address the issue in a constructive manner and may create further conflict.
Choice B rationale
This response is more accusatory than assertive. It may make the colleague defensive and does not encourage open communication.
Choice C rationale
This response is more avoidant than assertive. It does not address the issue directly with the colleague and does not promote effective teamwork.
Choice D rationale
This response is assertive. It communicates the nurse’s feelings and needs clearly and respectfully, without blaming or threatening the colleague. It promotes open communication and effective teamwork.
