NSG 5003 REVIEW TIPS QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS
SET A+
✔✔What is Shaken Baby Syndrome? - ✔✔A condition in infants resulting from violent
shaking, often associated with subdural hematomas.
✔✔What is a Laceration? - ✔✔A tear or rip in the skin with jagged and irregular edges.
✔✔What is Suffocation? - ✔✔A condition that occurs when oxygen fails to reach the
blood.
✔✔What is Heat Exhaustion? - ✔✔A condition defined by sufficient salt and water loss
that results in hemoconcentration.
✔✔What is Caisson Disease? - ✔✔A condition that occurs when divers ascend too
quickly, leading to gas embolism.
✔✔What is Caseous Necrosis? - ✔✔A type of necrosis typically found in the lungs due
to tuberculosis, resembling clumped cheese.
✔✔What is Apoptosis? - ✔✔An active process of cellular self-destruction that is
important in normal embryonic development and cancer cell regulation.
✔✔What is a Hypertonic Fluid? - ✔✔A fluid that causes cellular shrinkage due to higher
solute concentration outside the cell.
✔✔What is a Hypotonic Fluid? - ✔✔A fluid that causes cellular swelling due to lower
solute concentration outside the cell.
✔✔What is a Necrosis? - ✔✔Accidental cell death that occurs due to severe and
sudden injury.
, ✔✔What is Strangulation? - ✔✔A form of asphyxia caused by external pressure on the
neck, compressing blood vessels and air passages.
✔✔What is Drowning? - ✔✔A condition that occurs when water or fluid interferes with
oxygen delivery to the body.
✔✔What is Hemoconcentration? - ✔✔An increase in the concentration of cells and
solids in the blood due to loss of plasma.
✔✔What is a Subdural Hematoma associated with? - ✔✔Blows, falls, or sudden
acceleration/deceleration of the head.
✔✔What is a Contusion associated with? - ✔✔Bruising or bleeding into the skin and
underlying tissues.
✔✔What is a Torn Artery? - ✔✔An injury that can lead to an epidural hematoma, often
associated with skull fractures.
✔✔What is an Incision? - ✔✔A precise cut made with an instrument that leaves regular,
clean edges.
✔✔What is an Incised Wound? - ✔✔A wound that is longer than it is deep, with distinct
edges without abrasion.
✔✔What is Petechiae? - ✔✔Small red or purple spots on the skin caused by bleeding
under the skin, often seen in strangulation.
✔✔What is a Blast Injury? - ✔✔Injury caused by the collapse of the thorax and rupture
of internal organs due to an explosion.
✔✔What is Hypernatremia? - ✔✔A condition characterized by high sodium levels in the
blood, which can lead to cellular dehydration.
✔✔What is a hypotonic solution? - ✔✔A hypotonic solution has a lower concentration of
solute compared to another solution, causing water to move into cells, leading to
swelling.
✔✔What is an isotonic solution? - ✔✔An isotonic solution has an equal concentration of
solute compared to another solution, resulting in no net movement of water and
unchanged cell size.
✔✔What is a hypertonic solution? - ✔✔A hypertonic solution has a higher concentration
of solute compared to another solution, causing water to leave cells, leading to cell
shrinkage.
