RN ATI ADULT MEDICAL SURGICAL PROCTORED FINAL
EXAM
A nurse is caring for a client who has developed acute respiratory
distress syndrome (ARDS). Which of the following findings should the
nurse identify as a manifestation of this syndrome?

A. An audible pleural friction rub
B. Tracheal deviation from the midline
C. Refractory hypoxemia
D. Bloody expectorant when coughing
Answer- C. Refractory hypoxemia

Rationale: ARDS is a systemic inflammatory response to trauma, sepsis,
burns, pancreatitis, and blood transfusions, when excess lung fluid
dilutes surfactant activity in the lungs. A client who has ARDS has
refractory hypoxemia, which is hypoxemia that does not improve with
oxygen therapy. Extensive pulmonary edema evident on a chest x-ray is
a manifestation of ARDS.

,An emergency room nurse is assessing a client who has asthma and
difficulty breathing. Which of the following findings should indicate to
the nurse that the client is experiencing status asthmaticus?

A. Coughing
B. Flat neck veins
C. Use of accessory muscles
D. Presence of coarse crackles
Answer- C. Use of accessory muscles

Rationale: A client who has status asthmaticus uses accessory muscles
to help facilitate breathing, which is a manifestation of a severe airflow
obstruction. The situation is life-threatening and the nurse should
intervene immediately with strong systemic bronchodilators,
epinephrine, corticosteroids, and oxygen.

A nurse is teaching a client who has a new prescription for phenytoin to
treat a seizure disorder. Which of the following adverse effects should
the nurse instruct the client to report immediately to the provider?

A. Tender, bleeding gums

,B. Increased facial hair
C. Constipation
D. Skin rash
Answer- D. Skin rash

Rationale: When using the urgent vs. non-urgent approach to client
care, the nurse should determine that the priority finding is a rash,
which can have a measles-like appearance and progress to exfoliative
dermatitis or Stevens-Johnson syndrome. The client should report this
finding to the provider immediately.

A nurse is caring for a client who has atopic dermatitis and a
prescription for triamcinolone ointment. The nurse should assess the
client to monitor for which of the following adverse effects?

A. Increased pigmentation
B. Localized hair loss
C. Thinning of the skin
D. Increased sensitivity to the sun
Answer- C. Thinning of the skin

Rationale: Thinning of the skin and delayed healing are adverse effects
of topical glucocorticoid preparations. The client should only apply the
ointment to dry patches of the skin because topical steroids can cause

, atrophy of the dermis and epidermis, which can result in thinning of the
skin.

A nurse is assessing a client who has left-sided heart failure. Which of
the following findings should the nurse identify as a manifestation of
left-sided heart failure?

A. Dependent edema
B. Jugular distention
C. Weight gain
D. Frothy sputum
Answer- D. Frothy sputum

Rationale: The nurse should identify that frothy sputum, dyspnea, and
wheezing are manifestations of left-sided heart failure. Treatment
includes fluid restriction and diuretics to decrease preload and reduce
pulmonary congestion. Pink-tinged frothy sputum can be an early
indication of pulmonary edema and can be life-threatening. Therefore,
the nurse should notify the provider immediately.

A nurse is caring for a client who is experiencing anxiety as well as
numbness and tingling of the lips and fingers. The client's ABGs are: pH
