NSG 300 UPDATED EXAM UPDATED ALL QUESTIONS AND
ANSWERS SURE A+
✔✔What are the temperature sites - ✔✔Oral, rectal, axillary, tympanic membrane,
temporal artery, esophageal, pulmonary artery
✔✔fecal occult blood test - ✔✔test to detect occult blood in feces
Blue = postivie
✔✔What is used to help with a fecal impaction - ✔✔enema, then digital removal of stool
✔✔normal WBC count - ✔✔5-10,000
✔✔normal RBC count - ✔✔male=4-6 million
female = 4-5 million
✔✔normal Hgb level - ✔✔male = 14-18 g/dL
female = 12-16 g/dL
✔✔normal Hct levels - ✔✔male= 42%-52%
female=37%-47%
✔✔simple face mask - ✔✔used for short-term O2 therapy
delivers o2 concentrations from 6-12 L/min (35% to 50% o2)
✔✔plastic face mask with reservoir bag (partial rebreather or nonrebreather mask) -
✔✔delivers a flow rate of 10-15 L/min (60-90% o2)
✔✔Venturi mask - ✔✔O2 concentrations of 24%-60% and usually requires O2 flow
rates of 4-12 L/min
✔✔normal grief - ✔✔The usual response to a loss. Initial sadness and then recovery
are normal.
✔✔anticipatory grief - ✔✔grief experienced prior to a loss
✔✔disenfranchised grief - ✔✔grief involving a deceased person that is a socially
ambiguous loss that can't be openly mourned or supported
✔✔complicated grief - ✔✔a person has a prolonged or significantly difficult time moving
forward after a loss
, ✔✔necessary loss - ✔✔losses that every person experiences
✔✔maturational loss - ✔✔a form of necessary loss and includes all normally expected
life changes across the life span
✔✔actual loss - ✔✔occurs when a person can no longer feel, hear, see, or know a
person or object
✔✔perceived loss - ✔✔uniquely defined by the person experiencing the loss and is less
obvious to other people
✔✔Assault - ✔✔threat or attempt to injure
✔✔Battery - ✔✔an intentional offensive touching without consent or lawful justification
✔✔Dextrose 5% in water (D5W) - ✔✔is isotonic
enters cells rapidly, leading free water which dilutes ECF; most water then enters cells
by osmosis
✔✔Dextrose 10% in water (D10W) - ✔✔Hypertonic
Dextrose enters cells rapidly, leaving free water, which dilutes ECF; most of the water
then enters cells by osmosis
✔✔0.225% sodium chloride (quarter normal saline) - ✔✔hypotonic
expands ECV and rehydrates cells
✔✔0.45% sodium chloride (half normal saline) - ✔✔hypotonic
expands ECV and rehydrates cells
✔✔0.9% NaCl (normal saline) - ✔✔isotonic
expands ECV, does not enter cells
✔✔3% or 5% NaCl - ✔✔Hypertonic.
Draws water from cells into ECF by osmosis
✔✔dextrose 5% in 0.45% NaCl - ✔✔Hypertonic.
Dextrose enter cells rapidly, leaving 0.45% sodium chloride
