NURS 2502 - Pathophysiology Exam 1 Blueprint 100%COREECT
ALREADY RATED A+
Incidence of positive rheumatoid factor in patients with RA. correct answers Positive in 80% of
patients.
Most common first clinical sign of psoriatic arthritis. correct answers Dactylics "Sausage digits"
Earliest clinical manifestation of ARDS correct answers Dyspnea (SOB)
Initial management of ARDS correct answers Treat underlying cause (sepsis, aspiration, shock)
Joint deformities in RA. correct answers Appears in stage 3.
Extraarticular manifestations of RA correct answers Fatigue, anorexia, weight loss and low grade
fever.
Diagnostic tests required before beginning biologic therapy. correct answers Latent TB
Pathophysiology of erythroblastosis fetalis correct answers The fetus has resulting anemia from
the hemolysis of blood cells
The fetus compensates by producing large numbers of immature erythrocytes
Organ damage as a result of kernicterus correct answers Brain damage
Rh immune globulin (RhIG) schedule for administration correct answers 28 weeks gestation, 34
weeks gestation and 72 hours after delivery.
, Most common cause of hemolytic disease of the newborn. correct answers Rh negative mother
has a baby with an Rh positive father
Direct Coombs test correct answers Diagnostic for HDN. The Direct Coombs Test detects
maternal anti-D antibodies that have already bound to fetal RBCs.
Bleeding precautions. correct answers Use electric razor, discontinuation of ASA, limitation of
needle sticks.
Absolute neutrophil count (ANC) correct answers Reflects number of mature WBC's, needs to be
above 3000
Most common cause of aplastic anemia correct answers Inability of erythrocyte-prducing organs
(bone marrow) to produce RBCs
Pain assesment in the young child correct answers Wong baker and the FLACC scale
Somatic pain correct answers Pain originating from skin and musculoskeletal structures
Gate Control Theory of Pain correct answers Pain is modulated within the spinal cord.
Stimulation of the A-beta cutaneous fibers is thought to close the gate on transmission of pain
impulses.
WHO's 3-Step Approach to Pain correct answers Step 1: No opioids (1-3)
Step 2: Weak opioids (4-6)
Step 3: Strong opioids (7-10)
Adjuvant medications during opioid therapy correct answers Medications not originally for pain
(anticonvulsants)
