Exam 2 Nurs 327 Practice Questions and
Answers (100% Pass)

The nurse is admitting a client who just had a bronchoscopy. Which assessment should

be the nurse's priority? - ✔️✔️Swallow reflex


Bradypnea is associated with which condition? - ✔️✔️Increased intracranial pressure


The nursing instructor is teaching a pre-nursing pathophysiology class. The class is

covering the respiratory system. The instructor explains that the respiratory system is

comprised of both the upper and lower respiratory system. The nose is part of the upper

respiratory system. The instructor continues to explain that the nasal cavities have a

vascular and ciliated mucous lining. What is the purpose of the vascular and ciliated

mucous lining of the nasal cavities? - ✔️✔️Warm and humidify inspired air




Explanation: The vascular and ciliated mucous lining of the nasal cavities warms and

humidifies inspired air. It is the function of the cilia alone to move mucus in the nasal

cavities and filter the inspired air.


A pediatrician diagnosed a child with swollen and inflamed adenoids. The nurse

practitioner confirmed the diagnosis by: - ✔️✔️Inspecting the roof of the nasopharynx.

Explanation:


The adenoids are clusters of lymph tissue located between the back of the nose and the

back of the throat in the nasopharynx. The adenoids are usually inspected by using a

special mirror. They cannot be seen by looking directly into the mouth.


A black client with asthma seeks emergency care for acute respiratory distress.

Because of this client's dark skin, the nurse should assess for cyanosis by inspecting

the: - ✔️✔️mucous membranes.


A nurse would question the accuracy of a pulse oximetry evaluation in which of the

following conditions? - ✔️✔️A client experiencing hypothermia


Explanation:


Pulse oximetry is a noninvasive method of continuously monitoring the oxygen

saturation of hemoglobin. The reading is referred to as SpO2. A probe or sensor is

attached to the fingertip, forehead, earlobe, or bridge of the nose. Values less than 85%

indicate that the tissues are not receiving enough oxygen. SpO2 values obtained by

pulse oximetry are unreliable in states of low perfusion such as hypothermia.


Lung compliance (the ability of the lungs to stretch) is a physical factor that affects

ventilation. A nurse is aware that a patient who has lost elasticity in the lung tissue has

a condition known as: - ✔️✔️Emphysema

Explanation:


Emphysema, most commonly caused by smoking cigarettes, results in a loss of lung

elasticity, which destroys the capillaries that supply the alveoli. This causes airway

collapse during expiration, dyspnea, and eventually cyanosis.


The nurse is caring for a client with hypoxemia of unknown cause. Which of the

following oxygen transport considerations does the nurse identify as crucial to circulate

oxygen in the body system? Select all that apply. - ✔️✔️Oxygen is dissolved.


Oxyhemoglobin circulates to the body tissue.


Adequate red blood cells are needed for oxygen transport.




Explanation:


Oxygen transport occurs by dissolving oxygen in the water in the plasma and combining

oxygen with red blood cells (oxyhemoglobin). Normal red blood cell count is needed for

oxygen transport. High blood pressure does not disrupt transport unless there is

disruption in perfusion via a bleeding or occlusion. Dissolved oxygen is the only form

which can diffuse across cell membranes.


Which is a true statement regarding air pressure variances? - ✔️✔️Air is drawn through

the trachea and bronchi into the alveoli during inspiration.
