Narcotic administration should be administered carefully in patients with acute pancreatitis
||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//||




related to potential for
||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//||




a. respiratory depression.
||\\//|| ||\\//||




b. narcotic dependency.
||\\//|| ||\\//||




c. sphincter of Oddi dysfunction.
||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//||

||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//||




manifestation would the nurse expect the client to exhibit? (Select all that apply.) ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//||

||\\//||

||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//||




e. Peripheral edema - correct answer✔✔a. Cough
||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//||

||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//||




Which offers the best prognosis for the cure of cancer?

a. Surgery ||\\//||




b. Radiation||\\//||




c. Early detection
||\\//|| ||\\//||




d. Chemotherapeutic agents - correct answer✔✔c. Early detection
||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//||

,Early detection of cancer, while it remains localized, is associated with the best prognosis
||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//||




for a cure. The majority of patients with solid tumors are treated surgically, which can be
||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//||




curative in some localized cancers. Ionizing radiation is used for two principal reasons: to ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//||




kill tumor cells that are not resectable because they are located in a vital or inaccessible
||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//||




area, and to kill tumor cells that may have escaped the surgeon's knife and remain
||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//||




undetected in the local area. Chemotherapeutic agents are not selective for tumor cells, and ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//||




a certain amount of normal cell death also occurs.
||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//||




A heart that has to pump harder in order to effectively circulate blood is likely to undergo
||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//||

||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//||




d. Weak urine flow

||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//||




e. Incomplete bladder emptying
||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//||

||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//||




a. Simultaneous symmetric swelling of joints
||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//||
