PN2003 FULLY UPDATED EXAMINATION QUESTIONS AND
CORRECT ANSWERS
Insulin. ANSWER: A pancreatic hormone that is essential for glucose
metabolism.
The ability of the client's naturally occurring insulin to maintain blood glucose
levels within regularly acceptable ranges is known as insulin independence
(ANSWER).
Reduced tissue-level sensitivity to insulin is known as insulin resistance
(ANSWER).
Type 1 insulin: ANSWER: No insulin is generated
Type 2 insulin: ANSWER: insufficient insulin
Hypoglycemia: ANSWER: low blood sugar levels
An elevated blood sugar level is known as hyperglycemia.
Early stages of Alzheimer's disease include depression, short-term memory loss,
and mild impairment (ANSWER).
The middle stage of Alzheimer's disease is characterized by an increased

, What are vascular characteristics? ANSWER Small cerebral infarctions are the
cause of vascular dementia. Both local and systemic brain injury are possible,
the disease develops more quickly, and its course is more predictable.
start of stroke-related cognitive impairments
The sudden appearance of symptoms
Infarctions can be observed on brain imaging.
due to brain injury brought on by little infarctions
resulting from circulation issues that prevent enough blood and oxygen from
reaching the brain
Among the risk factors are
Smoking causes vasoconstriction, which limits blood flow to the brain.
- high blood pressure
Atherosclerosis and hyperlipidemia result in reduced blood flow to the brain.
- inaction
A history of heart disease or stroke
What is dementia? ANSWER: Dementia is a progressive, permanent decline of
cognitive function that impacts
- memory
- orientation
- judgment
- reasoning
- attention span
Language proficiency and problem-solving abilities
Alzheimer's disease symptoms and indicators: ANSWER
deterioration in communication, logic, and memory
- alterations in conduct
Loss of abilities (both IADLs and ADLs)
- mobility issues
Frontotemporal dementia: what is it? ANSWER: Dementia is a progressive,
permanent decline of cognitive function that impacts
