Which medication causes constipation? - (ANSWER)iron supplements
The nurse measures a client's residual urine by catheterization after the client voids. Which
condition would this test verify? - (ANSWER)urinary retention
When assisting a client from the bed into a wheelchair, the nurse assesses the client for signs of
dizziness upon standing. For what adverse condition is the nurse assessing the client? -
(ANSWER)orthrostatic hypotension
The loss of urine without any identifiable pattern or warning is called... - (ANSWER)urinary
incontinence
_________ is a condition in which an inadequate amount of oxygen is available to cells. This
results in difficulty breathing, increased respiratory and pulse rates, and pale skin with regions of
cyanosis. - (ANSWER)hypoxia
,If there is decreased cardiac output, respiration rate will... - (ANSWER)increase
What does pulse oximetry test? - (ANSWER)the amount of oxygen saturation in the blood
The nurse schedules a pulmonary function test to measure the amount of air left in a client's
lungs at maximal expiration. What test does the nurse order? - (ANSWER)Residual Volume
the total amount of air inhaled and exhaled with one breath is referred to as.... - (ANSWER)Tidal
volume
the amount of air contained within the lungs at maximum inspiration is referred to as... -
(ANSWER)Total lung capacity
________ is used to increase the turbulence of exhaled air and loosen secretions from the lungs -
(ANSWER)vibration
can be done before or after percussion
,Define evisceration. - (ANSWER)Evisceration occurs when contents of the body come out
through a wound/surgical incision site.
Define dehiscence. - (ANSWER)Dehiscence occurs when a surgical incision site starts to "open
at the seams," usually occurs due to obesity.
While using the braden scale, the __________ the number, the higher the risk. -
(ANSWER)lower
think: the lower you're funtioning, the higher the risk
What are the 3 fundamental characteristics of wound assessment? - (ANSWER)Age
Depth
Color
What two age populations are at an increased risk for illness and injury? - (ANSWER)Elderly

, Which of the following categories of health promotion is aimed at preventing illness?
A. primary
B. secondary
C. tertiary
D. restorative - (ANSWER)A: primary.
Primary prevention aims to prevent a disease/complications as a whole. This would include a
healthy diet, exercise, and vaccinations/immunizations.
A nurse is working at a health fair that is offering blood screenings for diabetes and high
cholesterol. What level of health promotion is she helping to achieve? - (ANSWER)Secondary
prevention. This level of prevention aims for early detection of a disease that already exists. So
you would already have the diabetes and not know it yet; a blood test would detect this early.
The chain of infection has 5 variables. The infectious agent (the virus/bacteria), the resovoir
(phones, bathrooms, door handles, water, plants and animals), the portal of exit (mouth, eyes,
sneezing etc), mode of transmission (touch, kissing, sexually transmitted), and portal of exit
(same as someone else's portal of exit). As a nurse, you should think of yourself as what variable
of this process? - (ANSWER)The mode of transmission. That's why we practice things such as
clean technique and surgical asepsis: we can very well be a mode of transmission from one
patient to another.
