CMSRN CORRECT EXAMS QUESTIONS AND
ANSWERS SET A+
✔✔Unlicensed personnel scope - ✔✔make observations
collect clinical data
report findings to the nurse
✔✔Models of consultation - ✔✔-Patient-centered case consultation: provides expert
advice on handling a particular patient of group of patients
-Consultee-centered case consultation: focuses on work difficulties with patients, which
are used as learning opportunities
-Program-centered administrative consultation: expert advice on developing new
programs or improving existing ones
-Consultee-centered administrative consultation: considers work problems in areas of
program development and organization
✔✔Disease progression stages - ✔✔-Exposure/injury: target tissue is exposed to
causative agent
-Latency/incubation: no evident s/sx
-Prodromal period: mild, non-specific s/sx
-Acute phase: disease at full intensity
-Remission: second latency phase, commonly followed by another acute phase
-Convalescence: patient progresses toward recovery
-Recovery: pt returns to health or normal functioning
✔✔Health indicators used to measure national health - ✔✔physical activity
tobacco use
sexual behavior
mental health
obesity
substance abuse
injury/violence
environmental quality
, immunization
access to healthcare
✔✔Components of health promotion - ✔✔self-responsibility
stress reduction/management
physical fitness
nutritional awareness
✔✔Quantitative research: control - ✔✔use of design techniques to decrease possibility
of error, thereby increasing the potential for findings that accurately reflect reality
✔✔quantitative research: hypothesis - ✔✔formal statement of expected relationships
between two or more variables
✔✔quantitative research: sampling - ✔✔selecting subjects that are representative of the
population to be studied
✔✔randomization - ✔✔sampling procedure used to provide each member of the study
population with an equal chance of being selected for an intervention
✔✔independent variable - ✔✔The experimental factor that is manipulated; the variable
whose effect is being studied.
✔✔dependent variable - ✔✔the response, behavior, or outcome that the researcher
hopes to predict/explain
✔✔Qualitative research: bracketing - ✔✔laying aside what's known & being open to
new insights
✔✔qualitative research: intuiting/reflecting - ✔✔focused awareness of the phenomenon
under study
✔✔qualitative research: theoretical sampling - ✔✔selecting of subjects based on
concepts that have theoretical relevance to an evolving theory
✔✔qualitative research: saturation - ✔✔point at which data collection is ended because
continuing would result in "more of the same"
✔✔quantitative research steps - ✔✔formulating the problem
reviewing literature
develop theoretical framework
identify variables
formulate research questions
select research design
define population/sample
