NURS 6512 FINAL EXAM REVIEW QUESTIONS WITH COMPLETE ANSWERS | 2026 | GRADED A+ Examination Findings of a child with Kawasaki disease - answer-Fever, Conjunctival Injection, Strawberry Tongue, and Edema of the Hands and Feet. Lymphadenopathy and Polymorphous Nonvesicular Rashes. Peripheral Edema - answer-Grading: 1+ Slight Pitting, no visible distortion, disappears rapidly. 2+ A Somewhat Deeper Pit than in 12+, but again no readily detectable distortion, disappears in 10-15 seconds. 3+ Noticeably Deep Pit that may last more than a minute; dependent extremity looks fuller and swollen. 4+ Very Deep Pit that lasts as long as 2-5 min; dependent extremity is grossly distorted. Ammonia in breath odor - answer-Uremia (ammonia) Grading of Pulses - answer-4+ Bounding 3+ Full, Increased 2+ Expected 1+ Diminished, barely palpable 0 Absent, not palpable Acute Limb Ischemia (ALI) - answer-Stage I - Viable - No sensory impairment - No motor impairment - Audible Arterial Doppler Signal - Audible Venous Dopler SignalStage IIa - Marginally Threatened - Minimal Sensory Impairment - No Motor Impairment - Often inaudible Arterial Doppler Signal - Audible Venous Doppler Signal Stage IIb - Immediately Threatened - Rest Pain Sensory Impairment - Mild to moderate Motor Impairment - Inaudible Arterial Doppler Signal - Audible Venous Doppler Signal Stage III - Irreversible - Anesthetic Sensory Impairment - Paralytic/rigor Motor Impairment - Inaudible Arterial Doppler Signal - Inaudible Venous Doppler Signal Assessment for Peripheral Arterial Disease - answer-Site of Pain is Distal to the Narrowing. Note: Pulses (strong, weak or possibly absent) Possible systolic bruits over the arteries that may extend through diastole. Loss of expected body warmth. Localized pallor and cyanosis. Collapsed superficial veins, with delay in venous filling. Thin, atrophied skin; muscle atrophy. Varicosity Findings In Pregnant Women - answer-With increasing cardiac output beginning in the 1st trimester, the pulse may be more easily palpated, with an abrupt rise and rapid fall. With increasing blood volume in the second trimester, jugular a and v waves may be easier to see. JVP should remain normal. Peripheral edema is a common finding as the pregnancy progresses. Varicose veins can develop during pregnancy and in the postpartum period. Heart Sounds - answer-S1 - Closure of the mitral and tricuspid (AV) Valves, indicates the beginning of systole. Best heard toward the apex. S2 - Closure of the aortic and pulmonic (semilunar) Valves, indicates the end of systole. Best heard in the aortic and pulmonic areas. Higher pitch and shorter duration. S3 - Best heard when the patient is in the left lateral decubitus (recumbent) position. Ventricular Gallup - Ken-Tuck-Y S4 - Most commonly heard in the older patients, but may be heard at any age when there is increased resistance to filling because the ventricular walls have lost compliance. Atrial Gallup - Ten-nes-see
