A 30-week pregnant trauma patient's vital signs include a blood pressure of 94/62 mm
Hg and a heart rate of 108 beats/minute. Fetal heart tones are 124 beats/minute. The
emergency nurse interprets the patient's hemodynamic findings as an indication of
which of the following? - CORRECT ANSWER-normal vital signs in pregnancy
rationale: in pregnancy, the resting heart rate increases by 10 to 20 bpm and a small
decrease in systolic blood pressure and a larger decrease in diastolic blood pressure
due to a decrease in peripheral resistance. Normal fetal rate is between 120 and 160
bpm
While performing an assessment on a 13-month old involved in a motor vehicle
collision, the nurse identifies which of the following findings from the patient as a
potential sign of mental status change? - CORRECT ANSWER-cooperation with the
assessment
rationale: an alert older infant or toddler will recognize his or her caregiver, be cautious
of strangers, and may not respond to commands, which is a normal response
Which of the following accurately describes ventilation prinicples associated with a bag-
mask device? - CORRECT ANSWER-ventilate at a rate of 10-12 breaths/minute
rationale: if ventilation is ineffective, assist ventilation at 10-12 breaths/minute or one
every 5-6 seconds
Which of the following is the best measure of the adequacy of cellular perfusion and
helps to predict the outcome of resuscitation? - CORRECT ANSWER-base deficit
rationale: base deficit serves as an endpoint measurement of the adequacy of cellular
perfusion and when used in conjunction with serum lactate helps predict the success of
resuciation
What is the safe pharmacological alternative to opioids for rib fracture pain management
in the anticoagulated patient? - CORRECT ANSWER-intercostal nerve blocks
rationale: continuous intercostal nerve blocks use long-acting anesthetics and can
provide safe and effective pain management for the anticoagulated patient.
