QUESTION
positioned:
CORRECT ANSWER C) Lying on the right side
YOUR ANSWER C) Lying on the right side
Ventilation and perfusion distribute to the dependent lung fields. In a patient with pneumonia in
the right lung, positioning with the right lung down would send more blood flow to the
RATIONALE
consolidated, nonventilated areas of the lung and produce a worse V/Q mismatch, which
would decrease oxygen diffusion into the blood and produce a lower arterial oxygen saturation.

configuration to the chest. This is a consequence of:
CORRECT ANSWER D) Increased residual lung volume
YOUR ANSWER D) Increased residual lung volume
Emphysema typically produces a barrel –shaped chest with an increased anterior-posterior
RATIONALE dimension. This is a result of loss of lung parenchyma resulting in reduced elastic recoil and
increased residual volume and functional residual capacity.

QUESTION Ausculation of the chest reveals bilateral fine crackles in the bases bilaterally, indicating:
CORRECT ANSWER B) Left-sided heart failure
YOUR ANSWER B) Left-sided heart failure
This occurs because valve dysfunction creates abnormally high pressures in the cardiac
RATIONALE chambers and in the pulmonary capillary bed. Isolated right-sided heart failure would not
cause pulmonary congestion; it would present as edema in the systemic circulation.
