MDC 1 EXAM 2 FULLY SOLVED TEST PAPER
GRADED A+
◉ Assess vital signs (specifically BP and P)
These drugs (like timolol) potentiate the effects of systemic beta
blockers and can cause an unsafe drop-in heart rate and blood
pressure
Answer: Before administering eye drops, what must the nurse assess
and why?
◉ Meniere's disease
Answer: Abnormal condition within the labyrinth of the inner ear
that can lead to a progressive loss of hearing. The symptoms are
dizziness or vertigo, hearing loss, and tinnitus (ringing in the ears).
Patient should not drive
Can be intermittent.
Cause is unknown/genetic
Can be dangerous to patient (fall risk!)
***build-up of fluids
,◉ - Turn head slowly
- Stop smoking
- Reduce sodium intake (so less fluid buildup/pressure)
- Use medications as directed
Answer: Patient education for Meniere's disease
◉ monitor vital signs
Answer: Post surgical care for tympanoplasty
◉ Weber test
Answer: The ________ test is performed by placing a vibrating tuning
fork on the middle of the patient's head and asking him or her to
indicate in which ear the sound is louder.
◉ Sound heard equally in both ears
Answer: What are normal results of the Weber test?
◉ systolic (90-120)
diastolic (60-80)
Answer: Normal blood pressure ranges for systolic and diastolic
, ◉ 60-100 bpm
Answer: Normal pulse range
◉ Temperature (96.4-99.5 F)
- Oral (98.6 F)
- Tympanic (99.6 F)
- Rectal (99.6 F)
- Axillary (97.6 F)
Answer: Normal temperature ranges per thermometer type
◉ 12-20 bpm
Answer: Normal respiratory rate range
◉ 94%-100%
Answer: Normal pulse oximetry range
◉ - spread your feet far apart to lower the center of gravity
- lifting an object from the floor, flex your hips,
knees, and back.
- bring the object to thigh level, bending your knees and keeping
your back straight.
- stand up while holding the object as close as possible to your
