MULTIPLE CHOICE
| a. | Cystocele |
| b. | Uterine prolapse |
| c. | Rectocele |
| d. | Stress urinary incontinence |
ANS: B
A fitted pessary may be inserted into the vagina to support the uterus and hold it in the correct position. Usually a pessary is used for only a short time and is not used for the client with a cystocele. A rectocele cannot be corrected by the use of a pessary. A pessary is not likely the most effective treatment for stress incontinence.

| a. | Abnormal uterine bleeding |
| b. | Diarrhea |
| c. | Weight loss |
| d. | Acute abdominal pain |
ANS: A
Most women are asymptomatic. Abnormal uterine bleeding is the most common symptom of leiomyomas. Diarrhea is not commonly associated with leiomyomas. Weight loss does not usually occur in the woman with leiomyomas, and the client with leiomyomas is unlikely to experience abdominal pain.

| a. | 55-year-old woman who has been having abnormal bleeding and pain for 3 years |
| b. | 46-year-old woman who has had three children and has just been promoted at work |
| c. | 62-year-old widow who has three friends who have had uncomplicated hysterectomies |
| d. | 19-year-old woman who had a ruptured uterus after giving birth to her first child |
ANS: D
The 19-year-old woman is still in her childbearing years. Often the uterus is related to self-concept in women in this age group, and they may feel that sexual functioning is related to having a uterus. The 55-year-old woman is past her childbearing years and has had bleeding and pain for 3 years. The hysterectomy may be well received as a method of pain relief. The 46-year-old woman has a family and positive events occurring in her life (job promotion). The 62-year-old woman is past her reproductive years and has relationships with others who have had positive outcomes.

MSC: Client Needs: Psychosocial Integrity
| a. | “I can’t wait to go on the cruise that I have planned for this summer.” |
| b. | “I know that the surgery saved my life, but I will miss having sexual intercourse with my husband.” |
| c. | “I have asked my daughter to come and stay with me next week after I am discharged from the hospital.” |
| d. | “Well, I don’t have to worry about getting pregnant anymore.” |
ANS: B
Stating that she will miss having sexual intercourse with her husband indicates that further teaching is needed for this client regarding sexual activities after a hysterectomy. Although intercourse may be initially uncomfortable, the use of water-soluble lubricants, relaxation exercises, and changes in position may be helpful. Expressing plans for a vacation is a positive psychologic state with plans for the future. Stating that her daughter will stay with her indicates the client understands that she may need assistance during her acute recovery period. Stating that she no longer needs to worry about getting pregnant indicates knowledge related to the reproductive cycle and a positive outlook.
