An 87 year old male resident has been consistenly continent of urine until the last several weeks. Which of the following action by the care providers at the facility is the most likely priority? Physical exam The priority in the treatment of incontinence in the elderly is an acknowledgement that it is not an inevitability and that the exact causes should and most often can be identified. This identification by way of history-taking and examination would supersede teaching about protective devices or exercis Question 2.2. At which of the following locations in the nephron would a nurse practitioner first expect blood to be largely free of plasma proteins? (Points : 0.4) Proximal convoluted tubule Bowman space Active filtration occurs when the whole blood enters via the afferent arteriole in to the glomerular capillaries, and the blood is then filtered into the Bowman space, removing plasma proteins. The filtrate that enters the proximal convoluted tubule and the loop of Henle is already free of plasma proteins Loop of Henle Afferent arteriole Question 3.3. A 14-year-old boy who appears to be intoxicated is brought to the emergency department by ambulance. The EMTs report that the boy has denied consuming anything out of the ordinary, but an open antifreeze container was found in the boy's room.

It tastes sweet and is intoxicating—the factors that contribute to its abuse potential. A lethal dose is approximately 100 mL. It is rapidly absorbed from the intestine, making treatment with either gastric lavage or syrup of ipecac ineffective. Fomepizole, with specific indications for ethylene glycol poisoning, was recently approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration . Sodium bicarbonate Question 4.4. A 4-year-old boy who has been deaf since birth and has bilateral cataracts has been brought to the emergency department by his mother because she noticed blood in the toilet after he last voided. Urinalysis confirms heavy microscopic hematuria as well as proteinuria. What will the care team's initial differential diagnosis most likely be? (Points : 0.4) Alport syndrome-Heavy microscopic hematuria, proteinuria, and sensorineural deafness and eye disorders are characteristic of Alport syndrome. This symptomatology is less characteristic of systemic lupus erythematosus glomerulonephritis, Henoch-Schönlein purpura nephritis, or immunoglobulin A nephropathy.
