MV RNFA 2 EXAM GRADED A LATEST
VERSION 2023/2024
____ is an integrated system developed by hospitals for the
prevention and control of areas of potential liability.
risk management
The right to perform certain activities within an institution is a
_____.
privilege
When unexpected events occur that have, or could have,
compromised patient safety, a systematic investigatory process
takes place. Significant information is gained through this
meticulous exploration. The primary motive for carrying out a root
cause analysis is to:
find out what needs to take place to prevent a recurrence of the
event.
As defined by the American College of Surgeons (ACS), the
surgical assistant may provide aid in all of the following functions
that help the surgeon carry out a safe operation with optimal
results for the patient, EXCEPT _____.
postoperative evaluations
____ is a term that refers to permission being given for an action.
consent
Criminal negligence is _____.
reckless disregard for the safety of another.
Who is responsible for checking diagnostic tests, such as X-rays
and CT scans, to confirm the proper area or side before an
incision is made?
surgeon
Credentialing of AHPs (allied health professionals) is influenced
by? Select all that apply.
,a. state regulations
b. scope of practice
c. institutional policy
d. medical bylaws
e. regulatory compliance
Which of the following reflects the basic values for health care
practice?
all of these
Ethics is an attempt to define right and wrong based upon ____.
beliefs
Credentialing and granting of practice privileges is a _____
process
Legal
Morbidity and mortality may be greater with penetrating trauma
because identification of injuries may be more difficult when
injuries are less obvious. In the case of an adult victim with a low-
velocity, low-caliber gunshot wound, at far range, of the anterior
left quadrant of the lower abdomen, what is the MOI and
description of the possible injuries?
Penetrating; small entrance wound, puncture of the anterior wall
of the sigmoid colon, no disruption of vessels, and bullet not found
in pelvis
The occurrence of perioperative mortality in geriatric surgical
patients is influenced by several evidence-based factors. Select
the patient most at risk for perioperative mortality.
Janice, age 70, scheduled for an emergency bowel resection with
an ASA class IV
Fluid and electrolytes play a key role in _____;
I:maintaining homeostasis
II:transporting oxygen
III:blood clotting
IV:maintaining temperature
i, ii, iii, iv
Age-related skin changes include a thinning epidermis and
decreased subcutaneous fat and elasticity. What special
, consideration should the first assistant provide to avoid skin
injuries?
Gently lift, not slide, the patient to and from the OR bed.
The immature blood-brain barrier and decreased protein binding
in infants increase their sensitivity to which group of drugs?
Opioids and hypnotics
For the greatest concentration of antibiotic prophylaxis, the
infusion should end within ___ hours of incision?
1
A number of screening tools have been developed to accurately
establish biologic age. One tool, the Comprehensive Geriatric
Assessment (CGA), is a multidimensional evaluation that
scrutinizes medications, functional ability, co-morbid conditions,
cognitive ability, mental function, nutritional status, and
socioenvironmental factors. In geriatric medical studies, the CGA
has been valuable in providing a metric for describing healthy
aging and _____.
identifying at-risk individuals.
Traumatic deaths may occur in three phases, or time frames. The
first phase occurs immediately after the injury, the second phase
within the first 1 to 2 hours after the injury, and the third phase
occurs days to weeks after the injury. Approximately 30% of total
fatalities from trauma could be prevented with definitive trauma
care, including appropriate and aggressive resuscitation with
rapid transport to an appropriate facility. Which phase, or
timeframe, of potential for trauma death, does this group
represent?
Phase II
Preexisting pulmonary disease increases the risk of perioperative
pulmonary complications. Which condition presents the most
significant risk factor?
Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD)
_____ is the most frequently acquired nosocomial infection.
urinary tract infection
