NUR 2092 HEALTH ASSESSMENT PRACTICE EXAM 2: Rasmussen College - NUR 2092 PRACTICE EXAM 2 [Latest version] Study Guide.

PRACTICE EXAM ⦁ During a Weber test, a patient with right ear hearing loss reports hearing sound longer in the right ear than the left ear. What results should the nurse expect to find from this patient during a Rinne test? Air conduction will be twice as long as bone conduction (2:1 ratio). Air conduction will be 1.5 times as long as bone conduction (1.5:1 ratio). Bone conduction will be longer than air conduction. Bone conduction will be equal to air conduction. ⦁ A nurse reads in the history that a patient has a new onset of acute otitis media. Based on this information, how does the nurse expect this patient’s tympanic membrane to appear? Dull Shiny Red Blue to deep red ⦁ A nurse examines a patient’s auditory canal and tympanic membrane with an otoscope and observes which finding as normal? Clear fluid lining the auditory canal A firm tympanic membrane without fluctuation with puffs of air A small hole within the cone of light A shiny, translucent tympanic membrane ⦁ When using an ophthalmoscope to examine the internal eye, how does the nurse distinguish the retinal arteries from the retinal veins? The arteries are narrower than veins. The arteries are a darker red than veins. The arteries have no light reflex and the veins have a narrow band of light in the center. The arteries have prominent pulsations and veins have no pulsations. ⦁ During an eye examination of an Asian patient, a nurse notices an involuntary rhythmical, horizontal movement of the patient’s eyes. How does a nurse document this finding? An expected racial variation Nystagmus Exophthalmus Myopia ⦁ How does a nurse recognize normal accommodation? The patient has peripheral vision of 90 degrees left and right. The patient’s eyes move up and down, side to side, and obliquely. The right pupil constricts when a light is shown in the left pupil. The patient’s pupils dilate when looking toward a distant object. ⦁ When inspecting a patient’s eyes, the nurse assesses the presence of cranial nerve III (oculomotor nerve) by observing the eyelids open and close bilaterally. What other technique does a nurse use to test the function of this cranial nerve? Pupillary constriction to light Visual acuity Peripheral vision Presence of the red reflex ⦁ Which cranial nerve is assessed by using the Snellen visual acuity chart? Optic cranial nerve (CN II) Oculomotor cranial nerve (CN III) Abducens cranial nerve (CN IV) Trochlear cranial nerve (CN VI)
