HEHI CC EAQ8gnvup
1. The nurse was assessing an elderly client and record- 70 mL
ed the pulse rate as 85. After assessment the nurse
determined the cardiac output as 5950. What could be
the approximate stroke volume?
70 mL
60 mL
50 mL
40 mL
2. A client has a heart rate of 72 beats/min and stroke 5040
volume of 70 mL. What is the client's cardiac out-
put? Record your answer using a whole number.
_____mL/min
3. When assessing an 85-year-old client's vital signs, the A pulse rate irreg-
nurse anticipates a number of changes in cardiac out- ularity
put that result from the aging process. Which finding
is consistent with a pathologic condition rather than
the aging process?
A pulse rate irregularity
Equal apical and radial pulse rates
A pulse rate of 60 beats per minute
An apical rate obtainable at the fifth intercostal space
and midclavicular line
4. A client admitted in the emergency department has Airway obstruction
airway obstruction, chest wall trauma, external hem-
orrhage, and hypoglycemia. Which condition of the
client will be given the highest priority?
Hypoglycemia

Chest wall trauma
Airway obstruction
External hemorrhage
5. Which assessment finding is considered the earliest Unexplained rest-
sign of decreased tissue oxygenation? lessness
Cyanosis
Cool, clammy skin
Unexplained restlessness
Retraction of interspaces on inspiration
6. The nurse places a pulse oximetry probe on the finger Arterial oxygen
and toe of a client with a respiratory disorder to de- saturation
termine the oxygen saturation of hemoglobin (SpO2).
Which other parameter can be determined using this
technique?
Arterial oxygen saturation
Partial pressure of oxygen in arterial blood
Partial pressure of arterial carbon dioxide
Partial pressure of oxygen in venous blood
7. A nurse prepares a client for insertion of a pulmonary Left ventricular
artery catheter. What information can be obtained functioning
from monitoring the pulmonary artery pressure?
The catheter is
Stroke volume placed in the pul-
monary artery. In-
Venous pressure formation regard-

ing left ventricu-
Coronary artery patency lar function is ob-
tained when the
Left ventricular functioning catheter balloon is
inflated. Informa-
tion on stroke vol-
ume, the amount
of blood ejected
by the left ventri-
cle with each con-
traction, is not pro-
vided by a pul-
monary catheter.
Although a central
venous pressure
reading can be ob-
tained with the pul-
monary catheter,
it is not as
specific as a
pulmonary wedge
pressure, which
reflects pressure
in the left side of
the heart. The pa-
tency of the coro-
nary arteries usu-
ally is evaluated by
cardiac catheteri-
zation.
8. A client is admitted with full-blown anaphylactic Stridor
shock that developed due to a type 1 latex allergic
reaction. Which findings will the nurse observe upon Hypotension
assessment? Select all that apply.
Dyspnea
Stridor
