Test Bank NSG 210 Caring for Clients With Lower Respiratory
Disorder with Rationale
1. You are a clinic nurse caring for a client with acute bronchitis. The client
asks what may have caused the infection. What may induce acute
bronchitis?
A) Aspiration
B) Drug ingestion
C) Chemical irritation
D) Direct lung damage
Ans: C
Feedback:
Chemical irritation from noxious fumes, gases, and air contaminants
induces acute bronchitis. Aspiration related to near drowning or vomiting,
drug ingestion or overdose, and direct damage to the lungs are factors
associated with the development of acute respiratory distress syndrome.
2. You are an occupational nurse completing routine assessments on the
employees where you work. What might be revealed by a chest radiograph
for a client with occupational lung diseases?
A) Fibrotic changes in lungs
B) Hemorrhage
C) Lung contusion
D) Damage to surrounding tissues
Ans: A
Feedback:
For a client with occupational lung diseases, a chest radiograph may reveal
fibrotic changes in the lungs. Hemorrhage, lung contusion, and damage to
surrounding tissues are possibly caused by trauma due to chest injuries.
3. You are assessing a client's potential for pulmonary emboli. What
finding indicates possible deep vein thrombosis?
A) Pain in the feet
B) Inability to dorsiflex
C) Negative Homan's sign
D) Pain in the calf
Ans: D
Feedback:
When assessing the client's potential for pulmonary emboli, the nurse tests
for a positive Homan's sign. The client lies on his or her back and lifts his or
Page 1
, her leg and his or her foot. If the client reports calf pain (positive Homan's
sign) during this maneuver, he or she may have a deep vein thrombosis.
4. You are caring for a client who has just been diagnosed with lung
cancer. What is a cardinal sign of lung cancer?
A) Mucopurulent sputum
B) Pain on inspiration
Page 2
, C) Obvious trauma
D) Shortness of breath
Ans: A
Feedback:
For a client with lung cancer, a cough productive of mucopurulent or blood-
streaked sputum is a cardinal sign of lung cancer. Symptoms of fractured ribs
consist primarily of severe pain on inspiration and expiration, obvious
trauma, and shortness of breath. These symptoms may also be caused by
other disorders but are not considered indicative of lung cancer.
5. The local public health department is holding a flu vaccine clinic. The
health department recommends flu vaccinations for healthcare workers and
people at high risk for complications or for those exposed daily to many
different people. When using FluMist (live, attenuated influenza vaccine),
what group is not approved?
A) Children between 6 and 12 years of age
B) People with hypersensitivity to milk products
C) Adolescents who regularly take aspirin
D) Adults 30 to 40 years of age
Ans: C
Feedback:
FluMist is a live and attenuated influenza vaccine administered
intranasally. It is not approved for various categories of people, including
adolescents who regularly take aspirin, children younger than 5 years of
age, adults above 50 years of age, and people with a hypersensitivity to
eggs.
6. You are an ICU nurse caring for a client who was admitted with a
diagnosis of smoke inhalation. You know that this client is at increased
risk for which of the following?
A) Acute respiratory distress syndrome
B) Lung cancer
C) Bronchitis
D) Tracheobronchitis
Ans: A
Feedback:
Factors associated with the development of ARDS include aspiration related
to near drowning or vomiting; drug ingestion/overdose; hematologic
disorders such as disseminated intravascular coagulation or massive
