Welcome to the NCLEX-PN practice test on Reduction of Risk Potential. This is a subcategory of one of the four Client Needs, Physiological Integrity. You can expect your examination to have 9-15% of questions on Reduction of Risk Potential, depending on how the Computer Adaptive Testing (CAT) system scores your test. The LPN/VN is responsible for reducing the potential for clients to develop health problems or complications from treatments, procedures, or existing conditions. There can be questions about changes/abnormalities in vital signs, diagnostic tests, laboratory values, possible alterations in body systems from surgical procedures or treatments, and performing therapeutic procedures. Topics in this practice test include vital sign assessment, laboratory values, disease risk factors, client positioning, and neurovascular complications. You can begin this test at any time. If you leave any test before it’s completed, it will remind you where you left off when you return. A good strategy is to read each question carefully and try to think of the answer before looking at the options. Remember that you should select the BEST choice. If you’d like a clue, click on the Hint button under the fourth option. When you select the correct response, you’ll go the next question. If you make a mistake, an explanation will immediately pop up with the rationale for the answer. Each time you take a practice test, the questions and options are shuffled into a different random order. These are two proven techniques to reinforce your learning.
