1. Which of the following are normal vital signs for a healthy
adult?
A. Temperature 36.5–37.5°C
B. Blood pressure 90/60 – 120/80 mmHg
C. Respiratory rate 12–20 breaths/min
D. Heart rate 50–60 bpm
Correct answers: A, B, C
Rationale: Normal adult heart rate ranges from 60–100 bpm;
50 bpm is bradycardic.
2. What are primary functions of the kidneys?
A. Filtration of blood
B. Hormone production (erythropoietin)
C. Regulation of electrolytes and fluid balance
D. Production of digestive enzymes
Correct answers: A, B, C
Rationale: Kidneys filter blood, regulate electrolytes, and
produce hormones; digestive enzymes are from the pancreas.
3. Which interventions help prevent pressure ulcers?
,A. Frequent repositioning of patients
B. Use of pressure-relieving devices
C. Keeping skin clean and dry
D. Applying topical antibiotics to intact skin
Correct answers: A, B, C
Rationale: Preventive care includes repositioning, support
surfaces, and hygiene; antibiotics are for infected wounds.
4. Which statements are true regarding informed consent?
A. Patient must be competent to give consent
B. Consent can be implied if the patient is unconscious
C. Information about risks and benefits must be provided
D. Consent is unnecessary for routine nursing care
Correct answers: A, C
Rationale: Informed consent requires competency and
disclosure; implied consent only in emergencies; routine
nursing care doesn’t always require formal consent.
5. What are common signs of hypoglycemia in adults?
A. Sweating
B. Confusion
C. Bradycardia
D. Shakiness
Correct answers: A, B, D
,Rationale: Hypoglycemia triggers sympathetic responses and
neurological symptoms; bradycardia is less typical.
6. Which methods are appropriate for infection control?
A. Hand hygiene before and after patient care
B. Wearing gloves when indicated
C. Using the same syringe for multiple patients if clean
D. Disinfecting surfaces regularly
Correct answers: A, B, D
Rationale: Sharing syringes is unsafe and increases infection
risk.
7. Which are types of diabetes mellitus?
A. Type 1
B. Type 2
C. Gestational
D. Type 3 (Alzheimer’s-related)
Correct answers: A, B, C
Rationale: Type 1, Type 2, and gestational diabetes are clinically
recognized; Type 3 is a research term for Alzheimer’s
association.
8. Which factors increase the risk of falls in older adults?
, A. Muscle weakness
B. Use of sedative medications
C. Poor vision
D. High fluid intake
Correct answers: A, B, C
Rationale: Falls are often due to weakness, impaired vision, and
medications; high fluid intake alone is not a primary risk factor.
9. Which laboratory tests are used to monitor kidney
function?
A. Serum creatinine
B. Blood urea nitrogen (BUN)
C. Liver function tests (ALT, AST)
D. Glomerular filtration rate (GFR)
Correct answers: A, B, D
Rationale: Kidney function is measured by creatinine, BUN, and
GFR; liver function tests assess hepatic function.
10. Which are signs of dehydration?
A. Dry mucous membranes
B. Sunken eyes
C. Tachycardia
D. Edema
Correct answers: A, B, C
