You are taking care of a client who suffers from Meniere's disease. On assessment, you note what common symptoms of this disorder? Select all that apply.

Hearing loss.

Nystagmus.

Vertigo.

Tinnitus.

Loss of vision.

Answer and Explanation

Correct Answer : A,C,D

Meniere's disease is a disorder of the inner ear characterized by episodes of vertigo, hearing loss, tinnitus, and a feeling of fullness or pressure in the ear. Nystagmus is not a common symptom of Meniere's disease. Nystagmus is a rhythmic oscillation of the eyes and may be present in other conditions such as vestibular disorders, drug toxicity, or brainstem lesions.

Choice B, nystagmus, is incorrect because although nystagmus can occur in other vestibular disorders, it is not a common symptom of Meniere's disease.

Choice E, loss of vision, is incorrect because Meniere's disease affects the inner ear and does not typically cause vision loss.

Correct Answer is B

Explanation

"The chance of acquiring a sexually transmitted infection increases with multiple sex partners." This response is appropriate and accurate because having multiple sex partners increases the risk of acquiring sexually transmitted infections. The nurse's response can help educate the client and encourage safer sexual practices.

Choice A is incorrect because it assumes the client already practices safe sex.

choice C is not relevant to the conversation.

Choice D is not necessarily incorrect, but it does not provide as much information or education to the client as choice B does.

A. Older clients who are sexually active have less risk for STIs than other age groups. B. Abandon biases that older adults are sexually inactive. C. Older clients know the ways to prevent STIs. D. Older clients, because of their maturity, are rarely embarrassed to talk about it.

Correct Answer is B

Explanation

Abandon biases that older adults are sexually inactive. Older adults are sexually active and at risk for sexually transmitted infections (STIs). The nurse should not make assumptions about the client's sexual activity based on age.

Option A, older clients who are sexually active have less risk for STIs than other age groups, is incorrect because older adults are at risk for STIs. Option C, older clients know the ways to prevent STIs, may not always be accurate.

Option D, older clients, because of their maturity, are rarely embarrassed to talk about it, is a generalization and may not be true for all older clients.
