CNOR PRACTICE QUESTIONS FROM CCI 2023-
2024
Aseptic technique is also know as
A. clean technique
B. sterile technique
C. sterilization
D. decontamination - A. Clean technique
aseptic technique refers to clean methods of containing microbial contamination in the
environment. The environment can not be sterilized.
An intrinsic factor that contributes to the development of a pressure injury is
A. pressure
B. hypothermia
C. diabetes mellitus
D. general anesthesia - C. diabetes mellitus
an intrinsic factor is related to the health of the patient. DM is an intrinsic factor that
contributes to the development of pressure injury.
Which of the following helps determine a patient's discharge destination?
A. written discharge instructions from anesthesiology and medical staff
B. risk of post op complications
C. standardized pain scoring
D. general condition and readiness for discharge - B. risk of post op complications
the choice of discharge site is based on the patient's acuity, access to follow up care, and the
potential for post op complications.
Central nervous system (CNS) s/s of local anesthetic systemic toxicity (LAST) include
A. hypertension
B. numbness of the lips and tongue
C. respiratory depression
D. elevated temperature - B. Numbness of lips and tongue
CNS symptoms of LAST include circumoral and tongue numbness. All other options are not part
of CNS.
Autologus bone grafts should be stored at a temperature of
A. 68 F (20 C)
B. 32 F (0 C)
C. -4 F (-20 C)
D. -112 F (-80 C) - C. -4 F (-20 C)

, maintaining storage temperatures w/in recommended parameters helps ensure that autografts
are maintained in optimal conditions for successful replantation.
When providing patient education for a child, it is important to understand which learning
characteristic of children?
A. children are self directed
B. children use intrinsic thought processes
C. children respond to the use of activities that follow transitions of maturity
D. children respond to a trial-and-error approach - D. Children respond to a trial-and-error
approach
child learners are task oriented, use extrinsic thought processes and value self esteem.
Which of the following actions would decrease radiation exposure during fluoroscopy
procedures?
A. positioning the patient as close to the tube as possible
B. positioning the patient as far from the image intensifier as possible
C. Positioning the patient as far from the monitor as possible
D. positioning the patient as close to the image intensifier as possible - D. positioning the
patient as close to the image intensifier as possible
The X-ray beams originate from the tube and are captures by the image intensifier. multiple
studies have shown that positioning the patient closer to the image intensifier results in a
significantly decreased dose of radiation.
a preoperative nurse is assisting an anesthesia professional with rapid sequence intubation by
providing cricoid pressure using the Sellick maneuver. Which of the following is the most
appropriate description of the technique?
A. exerting down and up pressure on the cricoid cartilage to compress the trachea
B. palpating for the thyroid cartilage and exerting pressure on it with a dominant index finger
and thumb to occlude the esophagus
C. applying pressing to the cricoid cartilage to occlude the esophagus
D. maintaining pressure on the thyroid cartilage until the anesthesia professional verifies
placement - C. applying pressure to the cricoid cartilage to occlude the esophagus
The sellback maneuver is used to prevent potential aspiration during induction of anesthesia
A diagnostic procedure that relies on radio frequency waves to reproduce cross sectional
images of the body w/o exposing the patient to ionizing radiation is
A. ultrasonography
B. Positron emission tomography
C. computed tomography
D. magnetic resonance imaging - D. MRI
MRI stimulates diseqilibrium in the nuclei of hydrogen atoms and the water of body cells. As
nuclei return to their original state, they emit radio frequency signals.
