FORM A
1. A nurse enters a patient's room and finds the patient pale,
diaphoretic, and lightheaded after ambulation. What is the nurse's
first action?
A. Give the patient a glass of water
B. Assist patient to a supine position and assess
airway/breathing/circulation
C. Call family to come in immediately
D. Document findings and continue rounds
CORRECT ANSWER: B. Assist patient to a supine position and
assess airway/breathing/circulation
Rationale: The first priority is patient safety and ABCs (airway,
breathing, circulation). Positioning the patient supine and assessing
ABCs addresses potential syncope or hypotension, which are the
,most immediate threats. The other options delay critical assessment
and intervention.
2. Which pulse assessment best indicates adequate peripheral
perfusion?
A. Absent radial pulse with warm hand
B. Capillary refill < 3 seconds and strong pedal pulses
C. Cool, pale extremities with bounding pulse
D. Weak brachial pulse only
CORRECT ANSWER: B. Capillary refill < 3 seconds and strong
pedal pulses
Rationale: Capillary refill and palpable pulses are the most reliable
indicators of peripheral perfusion. Capillary refill should be less than
3 seconds in a healthy patient. Strong pedal pulses indicate adequate
blood flow to the lower extremities. The other options indicate
compromised perfusion.
3. A patient reports pain 8/10 and requests PRN opioid. The
patient's recent respiratory rate is 8/min. What should the nurse do?
A. Administer full PRN dose and reassess in 30 minutes
B. Offer nonpharmacologic interventions only
,C. Hold opioid, notify provider, and consider alternative pain
management
D. Document and give half dose without notifying provider
CORRECT ANSWER: C. Hold opioid, notify provider, and
consider alternative pain management
Rationale: Respiratory depression (rate of 8/min) is a
contraindication to opioid administration. Administering opioids
could further depress respirations and lead to respiratory arrest. The
provider must be notified immediately, and alternative pain
management strategies should be considered.
4. Which is the best example of subjective data?
A. Temperature 101.2°F
B. "My chest feels tight and I can't catch my breath," says the patient
C. Oxygen saturation 92%
D. Erythematous rash observed on inspection
CORRECT ANSWER: B. "My chest feels tight and I can't catch
my breath," says the patient
Rationale: Subjective data are symptoms reported by the patient that
cannot be independently verified by the nurse. The patient's
statement about chest tightness and difficulty breathing represents
, subjective data. Temperature, oxygen saturation, and rash
observation are all objective data that can be measured or observed.
5. Proper hand-off communication should include:
A. Only diagnosis and code status
B. Detailed personal opinions about patient behaviors
C. Complete and accurate patient information including current
status, recent changes, and pending tasks
D. Only the patient's medication list
CORRECT ANSWER: C. Complete and accurate patient
information including current status, recent changes, and pending
tasks
Rationale: Effective hand-off communication requires
comprehensive, accurate information transfer including the patient's
current status, recent changes, pending tests or treatments, and what
needs to be done. Personal opinions and incomplete information
compromise patient safety.
6. Which lab result most directly reflects long-term glycemic control?
A. Random glucose
B. Fasting glucose
