A 150 pound adult burn patient is being transported to a receiving center.
The patient's urine output is being monitored via an indwelling urinary
catheter. The flight nurse understands the target urine output is: -
ANSWER - 68 ml/hr
The flight nurse is called to transport a patient who has been stabbed
multiple times in the abdomen. Upon initial assessment, the bowel is
protruding from the abdominal wall. The flight nurse should perform the
following for transport: - ANSWER - Cover the exposed bowel with
sterile solution soaked gauze.
The flight team is called to transport a patient who has an intra-aortic
balloon pump (IABP). The flight nurse knows the IABP uses
counterpulsation to - ANSWER - increase coronary artery perfusion and
decrease afterload.
The team is transporting a patient with a 3-day history of fever, weight
loss, and confusion. Results of laboratory studies reveal a potassium
level of 3.1 mEq/L, glucose level of 524 mg/dL, pH of 7.2, and normal

lipase level. The transport nurse should suspect - ANSWER - diabetic
ketoacidosis.
A patient with an intra-aortic balloon pump (IABP) is being transported
via fixed-wing aircraft. After ascent, it is essential for the transport nurse
to - ANSWER - rezero the arterial line.
The flight crew is transporting an infant who was delivered at 34 weeks
and presents with increasing lethargy and cool skin. The PRIORITY
laboratory assessment should be - ANSWER - glucose.
During transport in a high-altitude environment, a transport nurse notes a
decrease in the patient's oxygen saturation. Which of the following gas
laws is most likely responsible? - ANSWER - Dalton's Law
While flying in an area in which air traffic is controlled, the medical
crew should - ANSWER - keep nonessential radio traffic to a minimum.
The flight nurse is assessing fetal heart tones during transport. The heart
rate is noted to be 170 beats/min. Fifteen minutes later, the heart rate is
noted to be 175 beats/min. The flight nurse's NEXT action should be to:
- ANSWER - Administer an IV fluid bolus
What term describes stress that is considered normal, encountered in
daily living, and may enhance function, heighten awareness, or provide
new perspectives? - ANSWER - eustress

The flight nurse arrives at the bedside of an intubated, 80kg adult patient
with asthma exacerbation. Vent settings are:
Vt 800ml
Assist Control rate of 28
FiO2 100%
PEEP of 5cm
The patient continues to have inspiratory and expiratory wheezes despite
nebulizers. ABGs are:
pH 7.32
PaO2 98
PaCO2 66
SaO2 90%
What vent changes should the flight nurse make to improve the patient's
ventilation? - ANSWER - Decrease tidal volume and decrease
respiratory rate
The MOST accurate way to ensure endotracheal tube placement in the
field is - ANSWER - ETCO2 monitoring.
A patient that presented to a rural facility suffered a stab wound to the
neck at the level of C4. The airway is patent and the knife has been left
in place. The priority intervention for the transport of this patient is: -
ANSWER - Leave the knife securely in place and stabilize it

The flight team is called to transport a patient to interventional radiology
who was involved in a motor vehicle collision and sustained rib fractures
to the entire right side. A right chest tube was placed and is draining
approximately 200ml/hr. Upon the flight team's initial assessment, the
patient's right side was ecchymotic from the axilla to the iliac crest,
which is a new finding.
BP 80/60 mmHg
HR 125 beats/min (sinus tachycardia)
The nurse anticipates the etiology of the new ecchymosis is MOST
likely due to: - ANSWER - Intercostal artery rupture
The nurse is caring for a patient who was assaulted with a baseball bat.
The patient was struck multiple times in the right flank and back and
ecchymosis is noted on bilateral flanks. Vital signs are:
BP: 78/45 mmHg (56 MAP) HR: 140 beats/min RR: 38 breaths/min
SpO2: 92% (4L nasal canula)
The nurse would question the use of which diagnostic/assessment tool? -
ANSWER - CT abdomen and pelvis
A rotor-wing transport team experiences an engine failure and has a
forced landing in water. Which of the following is the correct sequence
for successful egress from the helicopter? - ANSWER - unplug, unstrap,
exit, inflate
