Parents of a 4-year-old child Red blood cell (RBC) levels
discovered the child has been chewing
and swallowing imported toy figurines
that have tested positive for lead.
Which blood test should the care team
prioritize?
The nurse is conducting a physical Hypoxic
assessment of a homeless man during
a night when the wind chill factor is
-10°F (-23°C). When assessing the man's
fingers and toes for frostbite, the nurse
looks for which type of cellular injury?
,A nurse is teaching a class on health Ultraviolet radiation increases the risk of skin cancer
promotion and includes information and damages DNA.
about the risk from ultraviolet
radiation. Which concepts should be
included in this class?
The provider removes a cast from a Disuse
teenager's arm. The client asks why the
muscle in the arm is smaller than it was.
The provider explains that this
reduction is caused by which of the
following?
The nurse explains to the hypertensive hypertrophy
client that the increased workload
required to pump blood against an
elevated arterial pressure results in a
progressive increase in left ventricular
muscle mass. This is an example of:
A mother rushes her 4-year-old child liver failure
to the emergency department after
she found an empty Tylenol
(acetaminophen) bottle beside her
child. The nurse is trying to explain why
it is so important to give the child
ipecac to induce vomiting in order to
prevent:
Mercury is a toxic substance, and the Fish such as tuna and swordfish
hazards of mercury-associated
occupational and accidental
exposures are well known. What is the
primary source of mercury poisoning
today?
,Hypertrophy may occur as the result of When one kidney is removed, the remaining kidney
normal physiologic or abnormal enlarges to compensate for the loss
pathologic conditions. The increase in
muscle mass associated with exercise
is an example of physiologic
hypertrophy. Pathologic hypertrophy
occurs as the result of disease
conditions and may be adaptive or
compensatory. Examples of adaptive
hypertrophy are the thickening of the
urinary bladder from long-continued
obstruction of urinary outflow and the
myocardial hypertrophy that results
from valvular heart disease or
hypertension. What is compensatory
hypertrophy?
The nurse is treating a client who has metastatic calcification
been immobilized for several months.
As a result, he is experiencing bone
thinning and weakening. The nurse is
aware of the risk of lung, blood vessel,
and renal tubule calcification due to:
A 70-year-old client is being treated hypoxia and adenosine triphosphate (ATP) depletion
for a recent ischemic stroke that has
left the client with deficits. These
deficits likely result from which
mechanism of cell injury?
A client has experienced significant Disuse atrophy of muscle cells during a prolonged
decreases in mobility and stamina period of immobility
during a 3-week hospital stay for the
treatment of a femoral head fracture.
Which phenomena most likely
accounts for the client's decrease in
muscle function?
, A client has developed cell atrophy. ischemia.
The most likely cause would be:
A client is admitted with an alteration in Hypoxia
arterial blood gases. Cellular injury is
most likely to result from which aspect
of this abnormality?
Which statement would a nurse tell a "This is a change in cell form as it adapts to increased
client that best describes a lab finding work demands or threats to survival."
of metaplasia?
A client is admitted with frostbite. What Cold increases blood viscosity and thrombosis
will the nurse tell the client about the
changes that have occurred due to
cold exposure?
Which situations causes atrophy? Decreased blood flow
Denervation
Disuse
The provider explains to the client, metaplasia
who smokes, that cells in the trachea
are substituted with cells that are
better able to survive. This process is
known as:
A nurse prepares an educational event Acetaminophen
for a group of single parents. The nurse Immunosuppressant drugs
is going to talk about drugs and the Alcohol and cigarettes
damage they can cause to the body. Antineoplastic drugs
The nurse would likely include which
of these drugs?
