ANCC LATEST 2026 EXAM TEST PAPER QUESTIONS AND
SOLUTIONS GUARANTEE A+
✔✔Roseola - ✔✔affects children between 6mos and 3 years. Fever for 2-3 days, then
discrete macular rash at the end of fever
✔✔Anthrax appearance - ✔✔Cutaneous anthrax begins 1-7days after exposure to
livestock. Painless pruritic papule appears and rapidly develops into an ulcer within
24hrs. Over 72hrs ulcer becomes dry and dark with surrounding edema known as
"black eschar"
✔✔ABI (ankle brachial index) - ✔✔ABI <0.9 is associated with PAD
test that measures arterial perfusion using a Doppler unit. blood pressures are
measured in both UEs and LEs and highest LE systolic pressure is divided by brachial
systolic pressure.
✔✔HLA-B27. Association? - ✔✔Ankylosing spondylitis
✔✔Vitamin A deficiency symptoms - ✔✔-Night blindness
-Dry conjunctiva
-Bitot spots (white spots on conjunctiva)
-Loss of taste
✔✔Infantile scurvy presentation - ✔✔Irritability
Bone tenderness
Bleeding gums
Bone Swelling
pseudo paralysis of the legs
✔✔Older adult scurvy presentation - ✔✔Osmotic diarrhea
Bleeding gums
Perifollicular Hemorrhage,
Arthropathy
painful Bones
✔✔Niacin Deficiency Pellagra - ✔✔dermatitis, diarrhea, dementia, death
✔✔Niacin found in what foods - ✔✔Animal protein, beans, and fortified cereals
✔✔Chi-square test - ✔✔Compares samples with non-measurable nominal/categorical
variables (as opposed to ordinal or interval measurements).
Ex: color is a type of this variable.
, ✔✔Student's t-test - ✔✔a test used to compare two means of 2 independent and
different sample populations. Ex: comparing the average height of men in Texas and
New York
✔✔Paired t-test - ✔✔used to compare the means of 2 related sample populations.
Ex: measuring a disease metric in the same population before and after treatment
✔✔Z-Test - ✔✔similar to t=test, but the z-test requires either a large sample or a known
population variance
✔✔First line treatment of depression in the elderly - ✔✔SSRI "pram"s
✔✔Biphasic Stridor is associated with what - ✔✔Subglottic stenosis
✔✔NPI (National Provider Identifier) - ✔✔10 number ID required for Billing
✔✔F-test (ANOVA) - ✔✔Used when comparing the means of three or more samples.
Ex: bone density scores or specific pharmacological interventions
✔✔intermittent claudication treatment - ✔✔cilostazol and pentoxifylline
✔✔prospective cohort study - ✔✔A research study that follows over time groups of
individuals who are exposed
✔✔MRI - ✔✔best test for tendons and cartilage, soft tissue
✔✔Zika Virus - ✔✔• Transmitted through mosquito,
• Sx: mild, exhibit in 2-14 days : fever, rash, joint and muscle pain, conjunctivitis,
headache
recent travel to Africa, South Asia, Virgin Islands, Puerto Rico, and Brazil
• Pregnancy risk: fetal microcephaly (breast feeding no reported transmission)
✔✔Coxsackie B - ✔✔Symptoms called Bornholm Syndrome: Pleurodynia and myalgia,
pain can be strictly in the thoracic region
Virus assc with Myocarditis, percarditis
✔✔Actinic Keratosis - ✔✔a precancerous skin growth that occurs on sun-damaged
skin- specific for squamous cell cancer
TX: 5flouracil (Efudix) cream, cryotherapy
✔✔basal cell carcinoma (BCC) - ✔✔malignant tumor of the basal layer of the epidermis;
the most common type of skin cancer. Appears Waxy or pearly with raised edges and
telangiectasia (tiny blood vessels) Bleeds easily with trauma.
