While assessing a radial artery catheter, the patient complains of
numbness and pain distal to the insertion site. What interventions should
the caregiverimplement? - CORRECT ANS:->>>Promptly remove the
arterial catheter from the radial artery.
A patient is admitted with an epidural hematoma that resulted from a
skateboarding accident. To differentiate the vascular source of the
intracranial bleeding, which finding should the caregiver monitor? -
CORRECT ANS:->>>Rapid onset of decreased level of consciousness.
When preparing a patient for discharge from the hospital following a
cystectomy and a urinary diversion to treat bladder cancer, which
instruction is most important for the caregiver to include in the patient's
discharge teaching plan? - CORRECT ANS:->>>Report any signs of
cloudy urine output.
After repositioning an immobile patient, the caregiver observes an area of
,hyperemia. To assess for blanching, what action should the caregiver take?
- CORRECT ANS:->>>Apply light pressure over the area.
The caregiverenters a patient's room and observes the patient's wrist
restraint secured as seen in the picture. What action should the
caregivertake? - CORRECT ANS:->>>Reposition the restraint tie
onto the bedframe.
A female patient with acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) is
chemically paralyzed and sedated while she is on as assist-control
ventilator using 50% FIO2.
Which assessment finding warrants
immediate intervention by the nurse? - CORRECT ANS:->>>Diminished left
lower lobe sounds
Rationale: Diminished lobe sounds indicate collapsed alveoli or tension
pneumothorax, which required
immediate chest tube insertion to re-inflate the lung.
The development of atherosclerosis is a process of sequential events.
Arrange the pathophysiological events in orders of occurrence. (Place the
first event on top and the last on the bottom) - CORRECT ANS:->>>Arterial
,endothelium injury causes inflammation Macrophages consume low density
lipoprotein (LDL), creating foam cells
Foam cells release growth factors for smooth muscle
cells Smooth muscle grows over fatty streaks creating
fibrous plaques Vessel narrowing results in ischemia
Following a motor vehicle collision, an adult female with a ruptured spleen
and a blood pressure of 70/44, had an emergency splenectomy. Twelve
hours after the surgery, her urine output is 25 ml/hour for the last two
hours. What pathophysiological reason supports the nurse's decision to
report this finding to the healthcare provider? - CORRECT ANS:-
>>>Oliguria signals tubular necrosis related to hypoperfusion
A nurse-manager is preparing the curricula for a class for charge
nurses. A staffing formula based on what data ensures quality patient
care and is most cost-effective? - CORRECT ANS:->>>Skills of staff
and patient acuity
When performing postural drainage on a patient with Chronic Obstructive
Pulmonary Disease (COPD), which approach should the caregiveruse? -
CORRECT ANS:->>>Explain that the patient may be placed in five
positions
, A patient presents in the emergency room with right-sided facial
asymmetry. The caregiverasks the patient to perform a series of
movements that require use of the facial muscles. What symptoms suggest
that the patient has most likely experience a Bell's palsy rather than a
stroke? - CORRECT ANS:->>>Inability to close the affected eye, raise
brow, or smile
The caregiveris teaching a patient how to perform colostomy irrigations.
When observing the patient's return demonstration, which action indicated
that the patient understood the teaching? - CORRECT ANS:->>>Keeps the
irrigating container less than 18 inches above the stoma
The caregivershould teach the patient to observe which precaution while
taking dronedarone? - CORRECT ANS:->>>Avoid grapefruits and its juice
A patient who sustained a head injury following an automobile collision is
admitted to the hospital. The caregiverinclude the patient's risk for
developing increased intracranial pressure (ICP) in the plan of care. Which
signs indicate to the caregiverthat ICP has increased? - CORRECT ANS:-
>>>Increased Glasgow coma scale score.
Nuchal rigidity and
papilledema. Confusion and
