QOD: Scleroderma | NCLEX Practice Question

Today's NCLEX Question of the Day:

The nursing category is integumentary. The NCLEX category is basic care and comfort. A 36-year-old patient has been diagnosed with scleroderma and has breathing difficulties, including wheezing and dry cough. Which of the following skin changes would the nurse also expect to see upon assessment of this patient? A, a pinpoint rash across the neck and chest. B, excess skin folds that break down easily. C, moist pale skin that feels cool to the touch. D, stiff, tight skin that is lighter or darker than surrounding skin.

Think you know the answer? Listen to the episode for the full breakdown and rationale.

Do you actually KNOW if you're ready for the NCLEX, or are you just hoping? Stop guessing and find out for free. Take the free SIMCLEX at nursing.com/simclex. It simulates the algorithms of the NCLEX, the same question rules, the same difficulty, so you get a real feel for what the actual exam is like.

New NCLEX Question of the Day episodes drop every Thursday.
