Question 1 pts



Which test is a quick and reliable aid to diagnosis latent TB?


TB tine test


PPD skin test

Correct! QFT-G


Sputum smears

, Sputum smears, cultures and PPD skin test are still done. However, QFT-G
offers a quick and reliable diagnosis for the patient and health care provider.
The results of QFT-G are greater specificity and results are available 24 hours
after the blood is collected.

ABG Value
pH: 7.55
-
[HCO3 ]: 31 mEq/L
PaCO2: 37 mmHg



metabolic alkalosis, complete compensated


respiratory alkalosis, complete compensated


normal ABG


respiratory acidosis, partial uncompensated


metabolic acidosis, partial compensated

Correct! metabolic alkalosis, partial uncompensated




Question 3 pts

, These structures of the brain are responsible for the nervous control
of breathing and regulates the basic rhythm and depth of
respirations.


coronary sinus and alveoli


carotid artery and aorta


brachiocephalic vein and superior vena cava

Correct! medulla oblongata and pons




Question 4 pts



A client with a chronic airflow limitation is experiencing respiratory
acidosis as a complication. The nurse who is trying to enhance the
client’s respiratory status would avoid doing which of the
following?


Correct! Encouraging the client to breathe fast and shallowly


Assisting the client to turn, cough, and deep breathe


Keeping the head of the bed elevated


Monitoring the flow rate of supplemental oxygen

, Rationale: The client with respiratory acidosis is experiencing elevated
carbon dioxide levels due to
insufficient ventilation. The nurse would encourage the client to breathe
slowly and deeply (not shallowly) to expand alveoli and to promote
better gas exchange. The actions listed in options 1, 2, and 3 are
helpful actions on the part of the nurse.
Test-Taking Strategy: Note that the question contains the strategic
word “avoid.” With this in mind, eliminate options that are beneficial to
airway status, and choose the one that would cause further impairment.
Review care of the client with respiratory acidosis if you had difficulty
with this question.




Question 5 pts



A client is seen in the health care clinic and a diagnosis of acute
sinusitis is made. The nurse reinforces home care instructions to the
client regarding measures that will promote sinus drainage and
comfort. Which statement by the client indicates a need for
further education?



"I should apply heat such as a wet pack over the
sinuses."

Correct! "I will need surgery asap to drain the sinuses."



"I should try to sleep with the head of the bed elevated."


"I should drink large amounts of fluids."
