asymptomatic disease with mild discomfort, diarrhea, or |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\
constipation and flatulence which can be excused for
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\
other reasons. during acute episodes, food intake should
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\
be reduced along with antimicrobial drugs taken as
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\
needed; treated by increasing the bulk in the diet,
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\
omitting foods such as seeds or popcorn, and
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\
encouraging regular bowel movements without |\ |\ |\ |\ |\
constipation - CORRECT ANSWERS ✔✔diverticulosis|\ |\ |\ |\
secrete hormones directly into the blood, in contrast to
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\
exocrine glands that secrete into a duct - CORRECT
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\
ANSWERS ✔✔endocrine glands |\ |\

growth hormone - CORRECT ANSWERS ✔✔hormones
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\
develops more frequently in patients with Type 2
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\
diabetes; often the patient is an older person with an
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\
infection or one who has overindulged in carbs, thereby
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\
using more insulin than anticipated. condition may be
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\
difficult to diagnose initially; severe cellular dehydration
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\
,results in neurologic deficits, muscle weakness,
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\
difficulties with speech, and abnormal reflexes.
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\
hyperglycemia and dehydration develop because of the |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\
relative insulin deficit, but sufficient insulin is available to
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\
prevent ketoacidosis. #1 nursing intervention with a
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\
patient who has HHNC is to maintain a patent airway! -
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\
CORRECT ANSWERS ✔✔HHNC |\ |\
decreased mobility, hormonal factors, calcium deficits,
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\
low vitamin D, or low protein are all factors of...
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\
osteoporosis - CORRECT ANSWERS ✔✔osteoporosis |\ |\ |\ |\
excessive ___ intake is a contributor to osteoporosis -
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\
CORRECT ANSWERS ✔✔caffeine |\ |\
this kind of pregnancy test should be performed if it is
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\
ectopic - CORRECT ANSWERS ✔✔serum pregnancy test
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\
this level is expected to double about every 48 hours in a
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\
normal pregnancy; if failed to double, the pregnancy may
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\
be ectopic - CORRECT ANSWERS ✔✔beta- hCG
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\
administered to newborns to prevent hemorrhagic |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\
disorders. the sterile gut of a newborn lacks intestinal
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\
bacteria necessary for the synthesis of this vitamin.
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\
required for the production of clotting factors such as
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\
, prothrombin and fibrinogen - CORRECT ANSWERS |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\
✔✔vitamin K |\
results from fluid accumulation in the pericardial sac,
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\
constriction of the pericardium by tumor, or pericarditis
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\
secondary to radiation therapy to the chest. |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\
manifestations include heavy feelings over the chest, |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\
shortness of breath, tachycardia, cough, dysphagia,
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\
hiccups, hoarseness, nausea, vomiting, excessive
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\
perspiration, decreased level of consciousness, pulses |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\
paradoxes, distant or muted heart sounds, and extreme
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\
anxiety, neck vein distension. a medical emergency;
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\
pericardiocentesis with surgical repair as appropriate is |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\
needed (16-18 gauge needle inserted into pericardial
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\
space to relieve pressure and analyze fluid) - CORRECT
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\
ANSWERS ✔✔cardiac tamponade |\ |\
indicative of angina pectoris; condition in which the heart
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\
has outgrown its blood supply - CORRECT ANSWERS
