NU 272 Exam 1 Questions With Correct
Answers
Sensory |perception |- |CORRECT |ANSWER✔✔-1.)conscious |process |of |selecting, |organizing, |and |
interpreting |data |from |senses |into |meaningful |info
2.)Perception |is |influenced |by |the |intensity, |size, |change, |representation |of |stimuli, |past |
experiences, |knowledge, |attitudes.
Stimulus |- |CORRECT |ANSWER✔✔-1.)agent |or |act |that |stimulates |a |nerve |receptor
Impulse |conduction |process |- |sensory |functioning
also |do |receptors |respond |to |many |stimuli |or |just |one? |- |CORRECT |ANSWER✔✔-1.)receptor |
receives |stimuli, |translates |it |to |impulse
2.)impulse |travels |along |nerve |pathway |directly |to |the |brain
*Most |receptors |are |specific-> |sensitive |to |only |one |type |of |stimulus |(visual, |auditory, |touch)
Perception; |
where |does |it |take |place
what |affects |perception |- |CORRECT |ANSWER✔✔-1.) |awareness |and |interpretation |of |stimuli
2.) |Perception |takes |place |in |the |brain, |
specialized |brain |cells |interpret |the |nature |and |the |quality |of |the |sensory |stimuli. |
3.)An |individual's |level |of |consciousness |(LOC) |affects |the |perception |of |a |stimuli.
CN |with |Both |sensory |and |motor |functions |- |CORRECT |ANSWER✔✔-Trigeminal
Glossopharyngeal
Vagus
Facial
,Sensory |only |- |CORRECT |ANSWER✔✔-Olfactory
Optic
Auditory
Motor |only |- |CORRECT |ANSWER✔✔-Oculomotor
Abducens
Accessory
Trochlear
Hypoglossal
Adaptation |- |CORRECT |ANSWER✔✔-when |body |adapts |to |constant |sensory |stimuli |to |the |
point |where |it |essentially |goes |unnoticed
Sensory |overload |- |CORRECT |ANSWER✔✔-Sensory |overload |is |excessive |stimuli |over |which |a |
person |feels |little |control; |the |brain |is |unable |to |meaningfully |respond |to |or |ignore |stimuli
Sensory |overload |- |Patients |at |risk |- |CORRECT |ANSWER✔✔-1)Change |in |environment |( |ICU |lot |
going |on--> |delirium)
2)Patients |experiencing |pain/stress
3)Nervous |system |disturbances
Sensory |overload |- |nursing |interventions |- |CORRECT |ANSWER✔✔-1) |Provide |a |consistent, |
predictable |pattern |of |stimulation |to |help |the |patient |develop |a |sense |of |control |over |the |
environment.
2)Offer |simple |explanations |before |procedures, |tests, |and |examinations.
3)Establish |a |schedule |with |the |patient |for |routine |care |such |as |eating, |bathing, |turning, |
positioning, |coughing, |and |exercising.
, 4)Speak |calmly |with |the |patient |and |move |slowly; |communicate |confidence.
5)Explore |with |the |patient |what |stimuli |are |most |distressing |and |develop |a |plan |to |reduce |or |
eliminate |them |(e.g., |incoming |phone |calls, |visitors); |earplugs |or |pain |medication |may |be |
indicated. |Noise-reducing |headphones |may |be |helpful.
6)Be |careful |not |to |cause |sensory |deprivation.
7)Identify |and, |wherever |possible, |eliminate |culturally |inappropriate |stimuli.
Sensory |Deprivation |- |CORRECT |ANSWER✔✔-insufficient |quantity |or |quality |of |stimuli; |may |
result |from |decreased |sensory |input |or |monotonous, |unpatterned, |and |unmeaningful |input
Patient |factors |that |put |them |at |risk |for |sensory |deprivation |- |CORRECT |ANSWER✔✔-
1)decreased/ |monotonous |stimuli
2)impaired |ability |to |receive |stimuli
3)unable |to |process |stimuli
4)depression
Sensory |Deprivation |Nursing |intervention |- |CORRECT |ANSWER✔✔--promote |cognitive |and |
emotional |input
-increase |sensory |stimuli |from |all |sensory |modalities |
->patient |education:
-->self-stimulation, |i.e. |counting, |singing; |
-->visual, |tactile, |auditory
Normal |sensory |perception |- |CORRECT |ANSWER✔✔-· |Brain |must |be |alert |or |aroused
· |Nerve |impulses |from |(ascending) |sensory |tracts |reach |RAS |
--> |allows |certain |impulses |to |reach |cerebral |cortex |to |be |perceived |
-->mediates |arousal/ |controls |behavior
-->extends |from |hypothalamus |to |medulla
