Week 3 NR507 EDapt
1. Simple spirometry can be used to measure a
any of the following EXCEPT:
a. Residual volume.
b. Vital capacity.
c. Tidal volume.
d. Inspiratory reserve volume.
2. The NP notes that a patient's FEV1/FVC ra- a
tio is severely reduced. Which of the follow-
ing conditions is most likely the patient's
pulmonary issue?
a. Chronic asthma.
b. Pulmonary hypertension.
c. Pneumonia.
d. Morbid obesity.
3. The NP is seeing a patient with chronic c
bronchitis that needs spirometry on to-
day's visit. What pulmonary function test
(PFT) findings are anticipated based on the
diagnosis of chronic bronchitis?
a. Decreased diffusing capacity.
b. Decreased total lung capacity (TLC).
c. Decreased forced expiratory flow (FEV1).
d. Increased lung compliance.
4. A patient with normal lungs should be able 80%
to exhale -------------of the forced vital capac-
ity within the first second.
5. The NP reviews the results of a patient's a
pulmonary function tests and notes that
, Week 3 NR507 EDapt
the FEV1, FVC, and total lung capacity (TLC)
are reduced. The FEV1/FVC ratio is normal.
Based on interpretation, this reflects:
a. Restrictive lung disease.
b. Obstructive lung disease.
c. The test is invalid.
d Combined obstructive-restrictive lung
disease.
6. Asthma is a chronic disease characterized a
by:
a. Intermittent, reversible airflow obstruc-
tion.
b. Bronchial scarring.
c. Air trapping.
d. Airway infection.
7. Symptoms common to both intrinsic and a
extrinsic asthma include:
a. Wheezing.
b. Dizziness.
c. Slowed breathing.
d. Elevated heart rate.
8. Asthma results in: b
a. Increased alveolar ventilation.
b. Decreased alveolar ventilation.
c. Scant mucus production.
d. Increased alveolar oxygenation.
9. Extrinsic asthma is a
a. triggered by an allergic reaction
b. triggered by non-allergic factors
