NUR 355 EXAM 3 QUESTIONS
WITH VERIFIED ANSWERS;
100% CORRECT; GRADE A
Abnormal lung sounds - correct answer- Rales
= fluid in the bases (LA)
Wheezing = bronchial constriction (LA)
Rhonchi = large amount of secretion (midlung)
Stridor = obstruction in (UA)
active tb - correct answer- Infected,
symptomatic and contagious, need antibiotic therapy
*if treatment isn't followed or finished, it could become
antibiotic resistant*
Artieral Blood Gas - correct answer- a blood
test measures the gases in your blood it records bicarb,
co2, ph and pao2 (invasive)
,asthma prevention meds - correct answer-
•Inhaled corticosteroids- decrease inflammation &
immune response (Pulmicort, budesonide)
•Combination beta2 agonists and inhaled corticosteroids
(Budesonide/formoterol or Symbicort)
•Leukotriene modifiers- they inhibit the leukotriene-
mediated inflammatory process (montelukast or singulair)
asthma rescue meds - correct answer- •Short
acting beta 2 agonist- open airways, should only be given
in acute asthma attacks. A pt can become tolerant and
they become less effective. (albuterol)
•Anticholinergics- reduce inflammation & mucus
production (ipratropium )
•Oral Steroids- Given short term, Decrease inflammation
and immune response making the airway less reactive
•Long acting -maintenance
•Long acting beta2 agonists- relax airways (Formoterol)
clinical manifestations of copd - correct answer-
•Increased sputum production
, •Pursed lip breathing
•Skin color changes (red or blue/cyanotic)
•Anxiety
•S p O2 <90
•Crackles
•Wheezes
•Increased work of breathing and shortness of breath
•Accessory muscle use
•Tripod position
•Increased A P diameter (barrel chest)
•Cough
Clinical Manifestations of lung CA - correct
answer- •New cough that does not go away
•Changes to chronic cough
•Hemoptysis
•Shortness of breath
•Wheezing
•Hoarseness
