Comprehensive NCLEX-RN ATI review
1 month motor skills - ANS-Head lag
Strong grasp reflex
Ten months of motor skills—ANS—Changes from sitting to prone position Using a handle,
grasps the rattle Motor skills at 11 months - ANS - Walks while holding onto something Fine
grasp with a pincer Deliberately drops things to have them picked up
puts things in containers. 12 month motor skills - ANS-Sits down from standing without help
uses one hand to walk Attempts 2 block towers
Can turn many pages in book at one time
2 month motor skills - ANS-Life head from mattress when prone
Holds hands in open position
3 month motor skills - ANS-Will raise head and shoulders in prone position
No grasp reflex present
holds the rattle Keeps hands loosely open
ANS-Characteristics of third-degree heart block include the following: p waves do not follow a
QRS complex consecutively; additional p waves may occur if there is no ventricular activity.
Motor skills for four months: ANS-Rolls from side to side Holds object in both hands
5 month motor skills - ANS-Rolls from back to front
Voluntary grasps
Objects are swallowed whole. 6 month motor skills - ANS-Rolls from back to front
carries a bottle Picks up dropped objects
7 month motor skills - ANS-Bears full weight on feet
sits and uses both hands to lean forward Moves object from hand to hand
8 month motor skills - ANS-Sits unsupported
Uses thumbs/index fingers in crude pincer grasp
Motor skills for 9 months - ANS - Creeps on hands and knees Pulls to standin
Pincer grasp more precise
Abrupto placentae - ANS-Contributing factors: trauma, preeclampsia, multiparity, cocaine use
Signs: board like abdomen and dark vaginal bleeding
ABX - ANS-Suffix: cycline & floxacin
Consume at least 3L fluid daily
Avoid sun exposure
Permanent tooth discoloration if given to children </= 8
ANS suffix for an ACE inhibitor is pril. for diabetic nephropathy, heart failure, MI, and
hypertension Monitor potassium, BP, angioedema
Captopril should be taken 1hr before meals
ANS-Acetylcysteine, an antidote, and acetaminophen, an antidote Acute epiglottitis - ANS
symptoms include stridor, drooling, a tripod position, a barking cough, and a voice that sounds
like a frog. Intervention: incubation and tracheotomy trays available, droplet precautions for the
first 24 hours
, Chrinc a-fib, long bone fx, PVD, DVT, sickle cell anemia, central venous catheter are
ANS-Factors for acute pulmonary embolism. Dyspnea, tachypnea, tachycardia, diaphorisis,
agitation, chest pain, and hemoptysis are symptoms. Fat emboli: petechia over chest and axilla
Interventions: manage airway, pain medication, heparin
Addison's Crisis - ANS-Characterized by hypotension, tachycardia, tachypnea, pallor
Secondary to infection, trauma, surgery, pregnancy, emotional stress
Hydrocortisone is a medication that stops a crisis. Addison's disease - ANS-Hyposecretion of
adrenal cortex hormones caused by an autoimmune disease, TB, histoplasmosis,
adrenalectomy, tumors and HIV
Hint: you need to ADD cortisol
The symptoms include weakness, fatigue, N/V, hyperpigmentation, hypotension with an
elevated heart rate, and a craving for salty foods. Intervention: monitor BP and heart rhythm,
electrolytes, low urine output
Airborne precautions - ANS-Herpez zoster (shingles), Measles (Rubeola virus), TB
Albumin - ANS-3.5-5 g/dL
Amenorrhea after four weeks of pregnancy ANS, or amniocentesis, is a genetic test for fetal
anomalies. Anomalies: down syndreom trisomy 18, trisomy 13, neural tube defects
Preformed between 14 and 16 weeks of pregnancy, if performed later in the pregnancy, to
assess fetal lung maturity and well-being. Can determine fetus gender Intervention: Administer
rhogam if client is Rh-negative
Antiemetics - ANS-Promethazine: monitor EPS
Metoclopramide: monitor EPS and tardive dyskinesia
Ondansetron: monitor headache, EPS, dysrhythmia
Scopolamine is a monitor for vision problems. Antilipemic - ANS-Suffix: statin
For: reduction of formation of cholesterol precursors
Drug interactions: digoxin, warfarin, thyroid hormones, thiazide diuretics, phenobarbital,
NASIDs, tetracycline, beta blockers, gemfibrozil, glipizide, glyburide, oral contraceptices, and
phenytoin
Do not administer with grapefruit juice
Antiviral - ANS-Suffix: vir
Acylovir and valacyclovir to be given with food
Aortic stenosis - ANS-Signs: hypotension, weak pulses, murmur
AP delegation - ANS-ADLs
