NUR 327 Exam 1 Questions With Correct
Answers
Complications |of |IV |therapy |- |CORRECT |ANSWER✔✔-Circulatory |overload, |infiltration |or |
extravasation, |phlebitis, |local |infection, |bleeding
Isotonic |fluids |- |CORRECT |ANSWER✔✔-NS, |LR, |D5W
Solutions |that |have |the |same |osmol |as |body |fluids. |Fluids |do |not |enter |the |cell |because |no |
osmotic |force |exists |to |shift |the |fluids, |so |it |increases |ECV
Hypotonic |fluids |- |CORRECT |ANSWER✔✔-0.45% |NS
Solutions |are |more |dilute |or |have |a |lower |osmol |than |body |fluids. |Causes |movement |of |water |
into |cells |via |osmosis. |Administered |slowly |to |prevent |cellular |edema.
Hypertonic |fluids |- |CORRECT |ANSWER✔✔-D5/NS, |D5/LR, |D5/0.45%NS, |D5/0.22%NS, |TPN, |10 |
% |Dextrose, |D50W, |3%NS
Solutions |are |more |concentrated |or |have |higher |osmol |than |body |fluids. |Concentrates |ECF |and
|causes |movement |of |water |from |cells |into |ECF |via |osmosis.
Crystalloids |- |CORRECT |ANSWER✔✔-CLEAR |solutions |that |contain |electrolytes, |may |be |used |
for |fluid |volume |replacement
Colloids |- |CORRECT |ANSWER✔✔-CLOUDY |solutions |known |as |"plasma |expanders." |they |pull |
fluids |from |the |interstitial |compartments |into |the |vascular |compartment. |they |are |used |to |
increase |the |vascular |volume |rapidly, |such |as |with |hemorrhage |or |severe |hypovolemia.
Electrolytes |to |monitor |during |IV |therapy |- |CORRECT |ANSWER✔✔-Sodium, |Potassium, |and |
Magnesium |for |sure!!! |but |also |chloride |and |bicarb
, Which |lines |can |be |used |to |infuse |blood |products? |- |CORRECT |ANSWER✔✔-peripheral |(20 |
gauge |or |larger |for |adults) |or |central |line
How |long |can |you |wait |to |start |infusing |the |blood |once |it |leaves |the |bank? |- |CORRECT |
ANSWER✔✔-30 |min
What |do |you |start |the |infusion |rate |at? |(mL/hr) |- |CORRECT |ANSWER✔✔-50 |mL/hr |for |first |15 |
min
How |long |does |the |RN |stay |with |the |patient |once |the |blood |infusion |has |started? |- |CORRECT |
ANSWER✔✔-15 |min. |Take |vitals |at |15 |minute |mark
What |do |we |monitor |when |administering |TPN/PPN? |- |CORRECT |ANSWER✔✔-fluid, |electrolyte,
|and |glucose |levels
What |are |4 |purposes |of |gastrointestinal |intubation |(NGT)? |- |CORRECT |ANSWER✔✔--
Decompression: |relieves |pressure |in |the |bowel
-Lavage: |irrigates |stomach
-Gastric |analysis
-Tube |feedings
Types |of |NGT |- |CORRECT |ANSWER✔✔-Short: |Levin, |Salem |sump
Medium: |nasoduodenal |tubes |(ND)
Long: |covered |in |NUR325
Steps |to |insert |an |NGT |- |CORRECT |ANSWER✔✔-1. |Measure |NEX |mark
2. |Lubricate |tube
3. |Swallow |while |inserting
