NURS 365 ACTUAL EXAM 1 2025| 160 QUESTIONS WITH
ACCURATE SOLUTIONS
1. What are the two types of incontinence associated with mixed
incontinence?
Stress and urge
Overflow and functional
Transient and total
Urge and overflow
2. Describe the significance of friction rubs in a respiratory assessment.
Friction rubs are normal sounds in healthy lungs and indicate
good airflow.
Friction rubs are associated with heart murmurs and indicate
cardiovascular issues.
Friction rubs indicate inflammation of the pleural spaces and
can suggest pleuritis or other respiratory conditions.
Friction rubs are caused by fluid accumulation in the lungs and
indicate pneumonia.
3. A patient presents with stridor during an assessment. What should the
nurse prioritize in their immediate care plan?
Assess and secure the airway
Administer a bronchodilator
Encourage deep breathing exercises
Document the finding in the patient's chart
4. To communicate with a resident who is cognitively impaired, the NA
,should:
, Speak loudly
Keep her attention by speaking quickly
Use words that are simple and specific
Include detailed information
5. What is the definition of subjective data in the context of nursing
assessments?
Subjective data is measurable information obtained from physical
examinations.
Subjective data refers to the nurse's observations during patient
assessments.
Subjective data includes laboratory test results.
Subjective data is what the person says about himself or herself
during history taking.
6. Describe the characteristics of mixed incontinence as mentioned in the
provided information.
Mixed incontinence is solely related to cognitive impairments.
Mixed incontinence only occurs during physical activity.
Mixed incontinence is characterized by frequent urination without
leakage.
Mixed incontinence involves involuntary leakage associated
with urgency and exertion, effort, sneezing, or coughing.
7. Is a type of lung infection that occurs when a patient is immobile.
Secretions pool in the lungs, and the warm, dark, moist environment is
ideal for bacterial growth, resulting in an infection is called
hypoxemia
embolus
, hypostatic pneumonia
atelectasis
8. Describe the physiological cause of stridor and its significance in nursing
assessments.
Stridor occurs due to muscle spasms in the diaphragm, suggesting
respiratory fatigue.
Stridor is a normal sound during expiration, indicating healthy
lung function.
Stridor is caused by obstruction in the pharynx or larynx,
indicating potential airway compromise.
Stridor results from fluid accumulation in the lungs, signaling
pneumonia.
9. Describe how urinary retention can contribute to the development of
urinary tract infections (UTIs).
Urinary retention can lead to stagnant urine, which creates an
environment for bacteria to grow, increasing the risk of UTIs.
Urinary retention increases urine flow, which helps flush out
bacteria.
Urinary retention prevents the bladder from emptying, which
reduces the risk of infection.
Urinary retention has no effect on UTI development.
10. What are the nutritional changes associated with immobility?
Increased calories, protein, appetite; positive nitrogen balance,
calcium absorption decreases, enhanced GI
Stable calories, protein, appetite; neutral nitrogen balance,
calcium levels unchanged, normal GI
