NURS 6030 Exam #4 Questions With Complete Solutions
__ is a great risk factor for type 2 diabetes Correct Answers
obesity
___ arthritis is the wearing away of that articular cartilage
leading to destruction of the bone and thickening of the bone,
you get bone spurs known as osteophytes, you can also get cysts
and you can break off pieces of bone into the joint Correct
Answers osteoarthritis
___ arthritis you can see inflammation of the synovial
membrane the leads to pannus formation that eats away at that
articular cartilage Correct Answers rheumatoid
ABCDE guide Correct Answers asymmetry
border irregularity
color variation
diameter more than 6mm
evolves or elevated over time
(raised, rapid enlargement)
Acromegaly Correct Answers excessive GH in adults
usually pituitary adenoma which secretes GH
,action of aldosterone Correct Answers stimulates
sodium/potassium pump in renal tubule
sodium reabsorbed into blood and water follows potassium
moves to kidney filtrate to be excreted
Addison Disease Correct Answers primary adrenal
insufficiency
lack of all adrenal cortical hormones (aldosterone,
glucocorticoids, androgens testes still produce testosterone)
lifetime replacement is necessary
Addison disease is a deficit of? Correct Answers adrenal gland
problems deficit of cortisol
age group affected by testicular cancer Correct Answers most
common cancer in men between ages 15 and 35
alcoholic liver disease Correct Answers First stage: is fatty
changes due to the altered fat metabolism this leads to
accumulation of fat in the liver, the liver will become yellow and
enlarged and it is still reversible at this point if the person stops
drinking
Second stage: alcoholic hepatitis this is where there is
inflammation and then cell death (necrosis)
Third stage: alcoholic cirrhosis this is where those cells change
to nodules and scar tissue; you can also develop blockage of bile
,and blood going through the liver and this is going to cause
problems with backing up into the bile system or in the venous
blood system eventually we are going to have loss of hepatocyte
regeneration.
aldosterone, cortisol, and androgens all decreased in addisons
disease but what is high? Correct Answers ACTH level is high
as it tries to stimulate the adrenal cortex to produce hormones
