Document preview thumbnail
Preview 4 out of 77 pages

This test exam provides up-to-date questions, correct answers, and rationales for the EVOLVE Elsevier HESI Medical-Surgical Nursing exam. The material focuses on critical thinking and priority setting in client care, such as the highest priority assessment for a fractured elbow (compartment syndrome) and the immediate action for signs of peritonitis in acute diverticulitis. Topics also cover managing chronic conditions like Cushing syndrome (monitoring blood glucose) and emphysema (activity pacing) , as well as ventilator adjustments (PEEP for improved oxygenation) and recognizing signs of hypokalemia (U wave) with diuretic use.
