NURSING 706 HESI Medical Surgical Nursing EXAM Questions and
Answers latest 2022/2023
When describing patient education approaches, the nurse educator would
explain that informal teaching is an approach that
a. follows formalized
plans b. has standardized
content c. often occurs
one-to-one
d. addresses group needs - CORRECT ANSWER===C. Informal teaching is
individualized one on one teaching which represents the majority of patient
education done by nurses that occurs when an intervention is explained or a
question is answered. Group needs are often the focus of formal patient
education courses or classes. Informal teaching does not necessarily follow a
specific formalized plan. It may be planned with specific content, but it is
individualized responses to patient needs.
Formal teaching involves the use of a curriculum/course plan with standardized
content.

a. field
b. biologic
al c.
cognitive
d. sociologic - CORRECT ANSWER===C. Cognitive theorists believe that attention,
relevance, confidence, and satisfaction (ARCS) are the conditions that, when
integrated, motivate someone to learn. Field theorists place significance on how
achievement, power, the need for affiliation, and avoidance motives influence
individual behavior. Sociologic theories are not involved in motivation.

b. older clients usually have more experience with pain than younger
clients c. older adults are at greatest risk for under treated pain

The nurse is working at a first aid booth for a spring training game on a hot day. A
spectator comes in, reporting that he is not feeling well. Vital signs are temp
104.1 F, pulse 132 BPM, respirs 26 breaths/min, and blood pressure 106/66 mm
Hg. He trips over his feet as the nurse leads him to a cot. What is the priory action
of the nurse?

a. admin tylenol 650 mg orally
b. encourage rest, and reassess in 15 minutes
c. sponge the victim with cool water and remove his shirt
d. encourage drinking of cool water or sports drink - CORRECT ANSWER===C


The spectator shows signs of heat stroke, which is a medical emergency. The
spectator should be transported to the ED ASAP. The nurs should take actions to
lower his body temp in teh meantime by removing his shirt and sponging his body
with cool water.
Lowering body temp by drinking cool fluids or taking acetaminophen is not as
effective in an emergency situation. The client needs to be cooled quickly and is a
priority for treatment

solution of dextrose 5% in 0.45% saline. The client states that the area around
the IV site burns. What intervention does the nurse perform first?

, a. assess for a blood
return b. notify the
physician
c. document the finding
d. stop the IV infusion - CORRECT ANSWER===D

Potassium is a severe tissue irritant. The safest action is to discontinue the
solution that contains the potassium and discontinue the IV altogether, in which
case the client would need another site started. Assessing for a blood return may
or may not be successful.
