This document contains 109 comprehensive exam-style questions with complete answers and illustrations for NUR 210 Exam 4 (2026). The content focuses heavily on nutrition fundamentals, eating disorders, substance use disorders, and related nursing interventions. Early sections review macronutrients and micronutrients, fat- and water-soluble vitamins (A, D, E, K, B, C), nutrient absorption in the small intestine versus fluid absorption in the colon, anthropometric measurements, laboratory indicators of malnutrition (PAB, cholesterol), and dietary modifications for conditions such as chronic kidney disease, hypertension, iron-deficiency anemia, and malabsorption syndrome (pages 1–4, 11–17, 43–46). The exam bank provides extensive coverage of anorexia nervosa and bulimia nervosa, including risk factors (teenage Caucasian females, societal thin-ideal pressures), clinical manifestations (lanugo, brittle nails, electrolyte imbalance, dental enamel erosion), diagnostic testing (albumin, electrolytes, ECG, bone density), pharmacologic management (fluoxetine for bulimia, olanzapine for anorexia), and priority nursing diagnoses such as disturbed body image. It also outlines admission criteria (75% ideal body weight, hemodynamic instability), evidence-based weight restoration strategies, CBT, family-based psychotherapy, and hospitalization indications (pages 3–10, 48–56, 66–67). Substance use and addiction content is thoroughly integrated, including alcohol withdrawal (CIWA-Ar assessment, benzodiazepines, thiamine), opioid management (methadone, naltrexone, clonidine), cocaine and PCP toxicity management, neonatal effects of maternal substance use (IUGR, microcephaly), CAGE questionnaire, OOWS/SOWS scoring, codependency, crisis assessment, and relapse prevention strategies. The document emphasizes physiologic dependence, withdrawal manifestations (hypertension, hallucinations, seizures), liver dysfunction related to detoxification failure, and interdisciplinary collaboration such as referral to social work and sober housing (pages 5–8, 33–42, 59–63). The structured Q&A format mirrors undergraduate medical-surgical and mental health nursing examinations, reinforcing prioritization, assessment skills, pharmacology, nutrition management, and psychosocial nursing care.
