NURS 8022 EXAM 3 QUESTIONS
LATEST COMPLETE WITH CORRECT
ANSWERS
\.Which of the following disorders can lead to a low V/Q mismatch?
A. Pulmonary edema
B. Pulmonary Embolism
C. Pulmonary Hypertension
D. Hypercapnia
A. Pulmonary edema
\.Nitric oxide, which is released by the glomerular endothelial cells, causes
which physiological process to occur?
A. Vasoconstriction
B. Vasodilation
B. Vasodilation
\.What would be a normal physiological response in regard to osmosis be in a
patient with hyperglycemia?
The patient's serum is hypertonic and the fluid will move out of the cell
\.How does the parasympathetic nervous system decrease heart rate?
Release of ACH from the parasympathetic system increases the permeability of K+
ions and leads to hyperpolarization of the cell.
, \.A patient is in renal failure. The patient reports a history of severe diarrhea for
several days. They also report they have not been able to eat or drink anything
for the last 24 hours due to not feeling well. The NP would suspect that this
patient's renal failure is a (pre/intral/post renal) and is due to
(dehydration/ischemia/urinary obstruction).
Prerenal; dehydration
\.Which of the following cardiac alterations could lead to left sided hypertrophic
cardiomyopathy?
A. Aortic stenosis
B. Pulmonary hypertension
C. Cardiac dilation
D. Amyloidosis
A. Aortic stenosis
\.Natriuretic peptides increase the _________ of sodium?
excretion
\.A patient presents with right sided heart failure, what is the most likely cause?
Left sided heart failure
\.If a patient's BP was 200/120 what would you expect to occur physiologically
in the kidneys? Afferent arteriole constriction
\.GFR is directly related to..
renal blood flow and perfusion pressure in the glomerular capillaries
\.Which of the following represents ventricular systole on the ECG?
A. PR interval
B. QRS
C. ST interval
D. QT interval
QT interval
