Question 6 states “Which statement by the patient warrants further teaching by the nurse” and all of the options appear to be statements from the nurse – to the patient. Very confusing. Question 5 also states the wrong answer is “Faster growing cells are more susceptible to chemo” and further explains the correct answer is “Faster growing cells are more susceptible to chemo”.

Dear Paul, thanks a lot for providing these quizzes which are helping me a lot.

In question 5, I keep thinking the answer is A i.e. Faster growing cells are more susceptible to chemotherapy. You indicate though that the option is B i.e. Faster growing cells are less susceptible to chemotherapy but the explanation given for option B seems to support option A. Please help clarify.

Thank you

Hi Paul. As a nationally certified oncology nurse with over 35 years of experience, I thought some of the questions were strange or at least lacking context. In Q1, the question says during hospitalization – but the potential answers include side effects that occur months to years after treatment is complete. In Q11, breast self-exam is not included in any national screening guidelines and is rarely encouraged even for persons at high-risk. In Q14, pleural effusion is a late sign, not a warning sign. In Q22 you have assumed all terminal lung cancer pts have pain but emotional care and dyspnea palliation are more prevalent. In Q29, a CBC prior to administering chemotherapy is a national standard of care. In Q37 all of those require further instructions. Maybe adding some details or more context would be helpful.

Q35 Says: Surgical procedure to treat breast cancer involves the removal of the entire breast, pectoralis major muscle and the axillary lymph nodes is a modified radical mastectomy. This is incorrect because a MODIFIED mastectomy preserves the pectoralis major muscle. Wouldn’t the correct answer be a radical mastectomy?
