What are the phases of ALI/ARDS?
Exudative, Proliferative, Fibrotic
carrier testing
genetic tests identify heterozygous carriers for many recessive diseases cystic
fibrosis, sickle cell dx, and tay-sachs dx.
,Transcription
is the process by which the information in a strand of DNA is copied into a
new molecule of messenger RNA (mRNA).
An advanced practice registered nurse (APRN) is working with a patient who has had
two days of severe nausea and vomiting and is diagnosed with an intestinal obstruction.
Due to this diagnosis, the APRN knows that the patient may have an acute kidney injury.
Which kidney injury coincides with the symptoms described?
Prerenal acute
Intrinsic acute
Postrenal acute
Intrarenal acute
prerenal acute
Which antibody initially indicates a typical primary immune response?
IgM is found mainly in blood and lymph fluid, this is the first antibody the body
makes when it fights a new infection.
,.A child presents to a clinic with a fever, conjunctivitis, and a strawberry tongue. An
advanced practice registered nurse (APRN) assesses the patient, and stage IV Kawasaki
disease is suspected.
What is the pathological mechanism of this disorder?
Constriction of the ductal tissue
Obstruction of left ventricular outflow tract
Obstruction of blood flow to the vessels and aorta
Intimal thickening and stenosis of coronary arteries
Give this one a try later!
Intimal thickening and stenosis of coronary arteries
Bells palsy
Give this one a try later!
A condition that causes temporary weakness or paralysis of the muscles in the
face. It causes paralysis on one side of the face, drooping face, headache, loss
of taste, increased sensitivity to sound, dry eye and dry mouth.
retropharyngeal abscess
Give this one a try later!
, life-threatening infection in the lateral pharyngeal space that has the potential
to occlude the airway; most commonly occurs in children.
collection of pus deep in the back of the throat.
.An advanced practice registered nurse (APRN) is working with a patient who has a
history of type 1 diabetes and is now experiencing renal failure. The APRN counsels the
patient concerning an increase in the incidence of hypoglycemia.
Which pathological mechanism contributes to this concern?
Enhanced renal glycogenolysis
Increased renal sodium-glucose cotransporter 2
Reduced renal gluconeogenesis
Decreased renal production of renin
Give this one a try later!
Reduced renal gluconeogenesis

raccoon eyes (periorbital ecchymosis) and bruising behind ear. Appears 2-3
days after trauma. Look for CSF. Rule out basilar and/or temporal bone skull
fracture. Basilar =intracranial hemorrhage
The APN is seeing a patient being treated for sepsis. In reviewing the labs, the APN
discovers that the patient has a large increase in serum creatinine. Which of the following
