Sample Saber Pro Enfermería Practice Questions

Try these sample questions to test your Saber Pro Enfermería exam readiness. Each question includes a detailed explanation. Start the interactive quiz above for the full 100+ question experience with AI tutoring.

1A nurse on a medical ward finds a postoperative patient in a windowless cubicle with stagnant air, soiled linens, and the call light out of reach. Grounding cuidado de enfermería in Nightingale’s environmental theory, the priority nursing action is to:
A.Leave the physical setting unchanged and focus only on documenting the medical diagnosis
B.Ask the EAPB to rewrite the patient’s benefit plan before any bedside care
C.Replace environmental care with a single dose of an anxiolytic as the theory’s central intervention
D.Restore ventilation, cleanliness, light, and a reachable call device so the environment supports recovery
Explanation: Nightingale located nursing’s distinctive work in putting the person in the best environmental conditions for nature to act: air, light, cleanliness, warmth, and order. Restoring those conditions is the theory-based first move, not a substitute medical prescription or an insurer paperwork step.
2An older adult after a stroke can swallow safely but cannot wash, dress, or manage oral medicines without help. Using Orem’s self-care deficit theory, cuidado de enfermería is indicated because:
A.All stroke survivors legally lose the right to participate in any self-care
B.Nursing exists only to complete medical prescriptions, never to support self-care
C.Therapeutic self-care demand exceeds the person’s current self-care agency
D.Self-care agency is assumed to be infinite in every adult regardless of impairment
Explanation: Orem locates the need for nursing when the person cannot meet therapeutic self-care demand with available agency. Help with hygiene, dressing, and medication management after stroke is a self-care deficit, not a forfeiture of personhood.
3Virginia Henderson described the nurse’s unique function as helping the person perform activities contributing to health, recovery, or a peaceful death that the person would perform unaided if able. That statement mainly orients cuidado de enfermería toward:
A.Substituting permanently for the person even after independence returns
B.Limiting nursing to laboratory interpretation reserved for other professions
C.Assisting with basic human needs until the person can do them independently or as independently as possible
D.Ignoring rest, nutrition, and elimination because they are not nursing concerns
Explanation: Henderson’s 14 basic needs frame nursing as temporary or complementary assistance aimed at independence. The nurse covers what the person cannot currently do, then withdraws that coverage as ability returns.
4A nurse sits with a frightened preoperative patient, names the fear, stays present, and protects privacy during gowning. In Watson’s caring science, this mainly enacts:
A.A requirement to withhold all information so the person remains passive
B.A purely biomedical checklist that treats the person as a surgical case only
C.A rule that caring talk replaces informed consent and safety checks
D.A transpersonal caring relationship that honors human dignidad as the heart of cuidado de enfermería
Explanation: Watson’s caritas processes locate nursing in a transpersonal caring relationship: presence, authentic listening, and protection of dignidad. Caring does not cancel consent or safety; it is the moral form in which those acts occur.
5A young adult after limb amputation is hemodynamically stable but says, “I am no longer myself,” refuses to look at the residual limb, and will not discuss returning to work. Using Roy’s adaptation model, the nurse should interpret this primarily as ineffective adaptation in which mode?
A.Physiologic mode only, because all post-amputation responses are circulatory
B.Interdependence mode only, which is limited to intravenous fluid balance
C.Self-concept and role-function modes, which concern identity and social roles
D.A mode Roy does not recognize, so theory cannot guide this case
Explanation: Roy’s adaptive modes include physiologic, self-concept, role function, and interdependence. Identity rupture and work-role refusal after amputation point to self-concept and role function, not to a purely circulatory problem.
6On admission, a nurse introduces herself, explains the unit, and invites the patient to say what this hospitalization means. In Peplau’s interpersonal theory, this encounter is mainly the:
A.Resolution phase, because the relationship is already over
B.Orientation phase, in which nurse and person meet, define the problem, and begin trust
C.Exploitation phase only, which is restricted to billing the EAPB
D.A phase Peplau reserved exclusively for community posts, never IPS wards
Explanation: Peplau’s orientation phase is the first meeting: roles are clarified, the problem is named, and a working relationship starts. Resolution comes later; exploitation is use of services within the relationship, not invoicing.
7A Wayúu woman in a coastal IPS asks that a family elder be present and that explanations honor her language and kinship rules. Applying Leininger’s culture care theory, the most coherent nursing response is to:
A.Forbid family presence because hospital rules always override culture
B.Ignore culture because Leininger applies only to international travel nursing
C.Force immediate repatterning of all beliefs before any assessment
D.Negotiate culture-care accommodation so safe treatment proceeds within the person’s cultural lifeways
Explanation: Leininger describes preservation, accommodation, and repatterning. When practices are not harmful, the nurse accommodates—here, elder presence and linguistically respectful teaching—so cuidado de enfermería is culturally congruent and still safe.
8Neuman’s systems model treats the person as an open system with lines of defense and resistance. A newly diagnosed person facing job loss, hyperglycemia, and family conflict is best read as encountering:
A.Only intrapersonal stressors, because work and family are outside nursing
B.Intrapersonal, interpersonal, and extrapersonal stressors that can penetrate flexible and normal lines of defense
C.No stressors, because diagnosis itself is not a stressor in Neuman’s model
D.A closed system that cannot be influenced by nursing
Explanation: Neuman classifies stressors as intrapersonal (e.g., hyperglycemia), interpersonal (family conflict), and extrapersonal (job loss). Nursing strengthens lines of defense and resistance rather than pretending the person is a closed system.
9Using Imogene King’s theory of goal attainment, the nurse and a person with newly diagnosed hypertension together set a walking goal the person considers feasible. This action is justified because the theory holds that:
A.Goals are valid only when the nurse imposes them without discussion
B.Transactions and mutually set goals between nurse and person are the engine of cuidado de enfermería
C.Goal setting is exclusively an EAPB administrative task
D.Persons should never participate because autonomy undermines nursing
Explanation: King’s interacting systems and transaction process require nurse and person to perceive, communicate, and agree on goals. Mutuality is not optional courtesy; it is how goal attainment is theorized to occur.
10A nurse explains postoperative atelectasis risk using ventilation physiology, then coaches incentive spirometry. This best illustrates evidencia that cuidado de enfermería is founded on:
A.Folklore only, because physiology is outside nursing’s knowledge base
B.Generic Saber Pro quantitative reasoning items unrelated to care
C.Nursing models plus basic and human sciences, not on isolated procedure lists
D.The Atención en Salud module’s medical treatment algorithms alone
Explanation: ICFES evidencia 1.1 asks that care be grounded in disciplinary theories and in basic and human sciences. Linking alveolar ventilation to a nursing intervention is that foundation, not a trivia exam in another module.

About the Saber Pro Enfermería Exam

The ICFES module Cuidado de Enfermería en los Ámbitos Clínico y Comunitario is the Saber Pro specific-competency module unique to SNIES NBC Enfermería. It is part of the Examen de Estado de la Calidad de la Educación Superior under Ley 1324 de 2009, not a professional-licensure exam and not a single exam named “Saber Pro Enfermería.” ICFES’s 2026-2 combinatoria table assigns combinatoria 4 as this module plus Atención en Salud plus Promoción de la Salud y Prevención de la Enfermedad; combinatoria 0 is generics only. The 2026-2 guide specifies 50 Spanish single-answer multiple-choice items. Diseño Centrado en Evidencias splits the competencia into three afirmaciones: clinical care (60% of items; evidencias 1.1–1.5), community care (evidencias 2.1–2.4), and ethical-legal-administrative management of care including the PHVA cycle (evidencias 3.1–3.3). Tabla 4 publishes 60% for afirmación 1 and lists afirmaciones 2 and 3 as the remainder of the module. This free bank is an English-language four-option MCQ study adaptation of the official afirmaciones — not an official ICFES translation, not a Spanish-booklet simulation, and not a substitute for Atención en Salud, Promoción de la Salud, the generic sitting, or clinical nursing practice.

Saber Pro Enfermería Study Tips from Top Performers

1Follow the published 60% clinical weight: most items should train the nursing process in hospital/clinical settings, then community and PHVA/ethics.
2Keep valoración, diagnóstico de enfermería, plan, and evaluación as sequential steps — ICFES evidencias score mix-ups among those steps.
3For gestión items, apply PHVA (planear–hacer–verificar–actuar) rather than naming a quality slogan.
4Humanización, seguridad del paciente, and gestión de la tecnología are the three quality axes in evidencia 3.2 — do not collapse them into one slogan.
5These MCQs are an English study aid. Practise also with ICFES's Spanish cuadernillos so the official language and stem style are not a surprise.
