NIFA practice test B2
b. separation between the superior mediastinum and the inferior mediastinum - ANS-In the
following illustration, the arrows points to a line that represents the:
a. into the superolateral quadrant. - ANS-An intramuscular injection into the buttocks is most
safely done:
c. Translabyrinthine - ANS-Acoustic neuromas arise from the Schwann cells of the vestibular
portion of the eighth cranial nerve and are benign tumors. What is the postauricular incisional
approach that offers the best chance of saving the integrity of the facial nerve?
b. pneumothorax due to knife penetration of the cervical pleura. - ANS-A plain radiograph of a
patient following a knife wound to the left side of his neck showed elevation of the left
hemidiaphragm, narrowing of the left intercostals spaces, and displacement of the trachea to
the left. You suspect:
c. Hepatic flexure - ANS-The transverse colon meets the ascending colon at what point?
c. 5-Fluorouracil and mitomycin can both be administered topically to dissolve scars and
pterygia. - ANS-Select the true statement about antimetabolite drugs and their indications for
use.
c. necrotic bowel. - ANS-Question text
Morris Bettelman, an 86-year-old retired plumber, states that he has suffered from a groin hernia
all of his adult life; he states, "as far back as I can remember." Sometimes he has to push the
bulge back into his abdominal muscle and then he is fine until he has a coughing spell. This
morning the bulge was large and tender when he woke up and he could not reduce it. As the
pain increased, he felt weak and nauseous. His daughter took him to the emergency
department. Morris was diagnosed with a strangulated incarcerated hernia and scheduled for
emergency surgery. If the contents of Morris' hernia sac become compromised, with
strangulation of the bowel, the probable label on his surgical specimen will be:
c. Guided imagery before and during anesthesia induction - ANS-Select the alternative or
complementary therapy that would be appropriate to integrate into the plan of care in the
perioperative setting.
b. normalizing - ANS-During the preoperative nursing assessment in the ambulatory surgery
receiving unit, the nurse notices bruises and abrasions in various stages of healing on her
patient's abdomen, arms, and breasts. In a quiet and respectful manner the nurse said, "The
staff at our facility are concerned about your safety. We know that many things can happen in
