A nurse is assessing a client's risk of breast cancer.
Which of the following would not be included in the education about risks?

A.

Client's sister had breast cancer.

B.

History of radiation exposure.

C.

Currently taking oral contraceptives.

D.

Age less than 25 years old.

Answer and Explanation

The Correct Answer is D

Choice A rationale

A family history of breast cancer, particularly in a close relative like a sister, is a significant risk factor for breast cancer.

 

Choice B rationale

Exposure to radiation, particularly in the chest area, increases the risk of developing breast cancer.

 

Choice C rationale

Current use of oral contraceptives can slightly increase the risk of breast cancer, though the risk diminishes after stopping the pills.

 

Choice D rationale

Age less than 25 years is not a risk factor for breast cancer; risk increases with age.

Correct Answer is A

Explanation

Choice A rationale

Pelvic pain and fatigue can be indicators of endometritis, an infection of the uterine lining. It often manifests with pain, fever, and general malaise, and requires further evaluation and intervention.

Choice B rationale

Light amount of dark red lochia with a bloody odor is a normal postpartum finding. Lochia progresses through different stages, and dark red lochia, which occurs in the later stages, typically has a bloody odor.

Choice C rationale

Hematuria, or the presence of blood in the urine, is not a typical symptom of endometritis. It may indicate a urinary tract infection or other renal issues instead.

Choice D rationale

A localized area of breast tenderness may indicate mastitis, an infection of the breast tissue. It is not related to endometritis but requires attention and treatment.

Correct Answer is A

Explanation

Choice A rationale

Betamethasone is a corticosteroid that accelerates fetal lung maturity by increasing the production of surfactant, which reduces respiratory distress syndrome in preterm infants.

Choice B rationale

While betamethasone can cause transient increases in fetal heart rate, its primary purpose is not to increase fetal heart rate. Its role is in enhancing lung maturity.

Choice C rationale

Betamethasone does not directly increase amniotic fluid levels. Its main function is in the maturation of fetal lungs.

Choice D rationale

Betamethasone is not used to stop preterm labor contractions. It is used to accelerate fetal lung development in preterm labor cases.
