120/80 - ✅✅-What is a normal Blood pressure (BP) reading in a healthy adult?
2 - ✅✅-Restraints must be taken off every __ hours and ROM should be tested
and documented.
2, 5, 3, 1, 4 - ✅✅ -Number Maslow's levels of human needs from top (least
important) to bottom (most important).
1. Safety and security needs
2. Self-actualization
3. Love and belonging needs
4. Physiological needs
5. Self-esteem needs
5 actions of physical attending - ✅✅-Therapeutic communication:
1. face the person squarely
2. adopt an open posture
3. lean toward the person
4. maintain good eye contact
5. try to be relatively relaxed
60-100 - ✅✅-What is a normal Pulse range for a healthy adult?
96.8-98.6 - ✅✅-What is a normal range in a healthy adult for temperature?
A (Goggles)
,(Rationale: Unless overly contaminated by material that has splashed in the
nurse's face and cannot be effectively rinsed off, goggles may be worn
repeatedly)
(B. Since gowns are at high risk for contamination, they should be used only
once and then discarded or washed.)
✅✅
(C. Surgical masks and Option D gloves are never washed or reused.) -
-When caring for a single client during one shift, it is appropriate for the
nurse to reuse only which of the following personal protective equipment?
A. Goggles
B. Gown
C. Surgical mask
D. Clean gloves
A (Through hand hygiene)
(Rationale: Since the hands are frequently in contact with clients and equipment,
they are the most obvious source of transmission. Regular and routine hand
hygiene is the most effective way to prevent movement of potentially infective
materials.)
(B. PPE (gloves and masks) is indicated for situations requiring standard
precautions.)
(C. ISOLATION PRECAUTIONS are used for clients with known communicable
diseases.)
(D. Routine use of antibiotics is not effective and can be harmful due to the
✅✅
incidence of superinfection and development of resistant organisms.) -
-Which is the most effective nursing action for controlling the spread of
infection?
A. Through hand hygiene
B. Wearing gloves and masks when providing direct client care
C. Implementing appropriate isolation precautions
D. Administering broad-spectrum prophylactic antibiotics
A (Vascular and cellular response)
,(Rationale: Hyperemia indicates a marked increase in blood supply, and is the
first stage of the inflammatory response. The vascular and cellular response is
the first stage.)
(B. EXUDATE PRODUCTION is the second stage.)
✅✅
(C. REPARITIVE PHASE is the third stage.)
(D. MARGINATION is part of the first stage.) - -The nurse notes hyperemia
when evaluating the incision of a client. The nurse knows that this indicates what
stage in the inflammatory response?
A. Vascular and cellular response
B. Exudate production
C. Reparative phase
D. Margination
A, B, C (Escherichia coli, Entercocci, Staphylcoccus aureus) - ✅✅
-What are
the most common infecting microorganisms in nosocomial infections? (Select all
that apply.)
A. Escherichia coli
B. Enterococci
C. Staphylcoccus aureus
D. Serratia
A. Health belief model
(Rationale: The behavior is most representative of health promotion, which is the
central focus of the health belief model.)
(Option B: The clinical model focuses on relieving signs and symptoms of
illness.)
(Option C: The role performance model emphasizes social activities such as
fulfilling a particular role.)
✅✅
(Option D: The agent-host- environment model focuses on predicting illness.) -
-Because a client recently diagnosed with diabetes mellitus is confident that
blood sugar control can be improved with diet and exercise alone, and recently
, checked out a video on the management of diabetes at the HMO education
center, the client's actions are most representative of which model?
A. Health belief model
B. Clinical model
C. Role performance model
D. Agent-host-environment model

A. Health belief model
B. Clinical model
C. Role performance model
D. Agent-host-environment model
acknowledging - ✅✅ -Therapeutic Communication Techniques:
Giving recognition, in a nonjudgmental way, of a change in behavior, an effort the
client has made, or a contribution to a communication
Acute Illness - ✅✅ -Characterized by severe symptoms of relatively short
duration.
Symptoms appear abruptly and subside quickly
May or may not require health care intervention- ex. appendicitis requires
surgical intervention, but colds subside without medical intervention or with help
of over the counter meds.
