NURS 6512 FINAL EXAM REVIEW AND ANSWERS GRADE A+|
QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS VERIFIED| NEWEST UPDATE 2025.
Examination Findings of a child with Kawasaki disease -CORRECT
ANSWER Fever, Conjunctival Injection, Strawberry Tongue, and Edema of the
Hands and Feet.
Lymphadenopathy and Polymorphous Nonvesicular Rashes.
Peripheral Edema -CORRECT ANSWER Grading:
1+ Slight Pitting, no visible distortion, disappears rapidly.
2+ A Somewhat Deeper Pit than in 12+, but again no readily detectable
distortion, disappears in 10-15 seconds.
3+ Noticeably Deep Pit that may last more than a minute; dependent extremity
looks fuller and swollen.
4+ Very Deep Pit that lasts as long as 2-5 min; dependent extremity is grossly
distorted.
Ammonia in breath odor -CORRECT ANSWER Uremia (ammonia)
Grading of Pulses -CORRECT ANSWER 4+ Bounding
3+ Full, Increased
2+ Expected
1+ Diminished, barely palpable
0 Absent, not palpable
, Acute Limb Ischemia (ALI) -CORRECT ANSWER Stage I - Viable - No
sensory impairment - No motor impairment - Audible Arterial Doppler Signal -
Audible Venous Dopler Signal
Stage IIa - Marginally Threatened - Minimal Sensory Impairment - No Motor
Impairment - Often inaudible Arterial Doppler Signal - Audible Venous Doppler
Signal
Stage IIb - Immediately Threatened - Rest Pain Sensory Impairment - Mild to
moderate Motor Impairment - Inaudible Arterial Doppler Signal - Audible
Venous Doppler Signal
Stage III - Irreversible - Anesthetic Sensory Impairment - Paralytic/rigor Motor
Impairment - Inaudible Arterial Doppler Signal - Inaudible Venous Doppler
Signal
Assessment for Peripheral Arterial Disease -CORRECT ANSWER Site of Pain
is Distal to the Narrowing.
Note:
Pulses (strong, weak or possibly absent)
Possible systolic bruits over the arteries that may extend through diastole.
Loss of expected body warmth.
Localized pallor and cyanosis.
Collapsed superficial veins, with delay in venous filling.
Thin, atrophied skin; muscle atrophy.
Varicosity Findings In Pregnant Women -CORRECT ANSWER With
increasing cardiac output beginning in the 1st trimester, the pulse may be more
easily palpated, with an abrupt rise and rapid fall. With increasing blood volume
in the second trimester, jugular a and v waves may be easier to see. JVP should
remain normal. Peripheral edema is a common finding as the pregnancy
progresses. Varicose veins can develop during pregnancy and in the postpartum
period.
