EXAM QUESTIONS AND CORRECT DETAILED ANSWERS
(VERIFIED ANSWERS) GRADED A+| NURS 5433 FINAL
EXAM PREP (MOST RECENT!!)
Question 1
A 72-year-old patient is prescribed a medication eliminated
primarily by the kidneys. Which change most likely requires a
dosage adjustment?
A) History of heavy alcohol use
B) Elevated liver enzymes
C) Increased age
D) Presence of a urinary tract infection
Correct Answer: C
2
,Rationale: Kidney function declines with age due to decreased
glomerular filtration rate and renal blood flow. Drug elimination
via the kidneys means decreased renal clearance in older or
renally impaired patients requires dosage adjustment to prevent
toxicity. Liver function, alcohol history, or UTI are not the primary
concerns for renally eliminated drugs .
Question 2
What is the primary mechanism of action for Penicillins?
A) Inhibiting bacterial protein synthesis
B) Inhibiting bacterial DNA synthesis
C) Inhibiting bacterial cell wall synthesis
D) Disrupting bacterial cell membrane integrity
Correct Answer: C
Rationale: Penicillins inhibit bacterial cell wall synthesis by
binding to penicillin-binding proteins (PBPs) and activating
3
, enzymes essential for cell wall function. This bactericidal
mechanism makes them particularly effective against gram-
positive organisms for conditions such as strep throat, syphilis,
and otitis media .
Question 3
The most serious adverse effect of ACE inhibitors that requires
immediate discontinuation is:
A) Dry cough
B) Angioedema
C) Hypotension
D) Hyperkalemia
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: Angioedema is a potentially life-threatening reaction
to ACE inhibitors involving rapid swelling of deep dermal,
subcutaneous, or mucosal tissue. It can compromise the airway
