The coronary vessels, unlike any other blood vessels in the body, respond to sympathetic stimulation by
- A.
Vasoconstriction
- B.
Vasodilatation
- C.
Decreases force of contractility
- D.
Decreases cardiac output
Correct Answer
B. VasodilatationExplanation
The coronary vessels, which supply blood to the heart muscle, respond to sympathetic stimulation by vasodilatation. This means that when the sympathetic nervous system is activated, the coronary vessels widen or relax, allowing more blood to flow through them. This increased blood flow helps to meet the increased oxygen demand of the heart during times of stress or exercise. Vasodilatation of the coronary vessels ensures that the heart receives an adequate supply of oxygen and nutrients to function properly.Rate this question:

What stress response can you expect from a patient with blood sugar of 50 mg / dl?
- A.
Body will try to decrease the glucose level
- B.
There will be a halt in release of sex hormones
- C.
Client will appear restless
- D.
Blood pressure will increase
Correct Answer
D. Blood pressure will increaseExplanation
When a patient has a blood sugar level of 50 mg/dl, it indicates hypoglycemia, which is a low blood sugar level. In response to this, the body activates the stress response known as the "fight-or-flight" response. This response triggers the release of stress hormones, such as adrenaline, which can cause an increase in blood pressure. This increase in blood pressure is a result of the body's attempt to restore glucose levels to normal by increasing the delivery of glucose to the brain and other vital organs.Rate this question:

All of the following are purpose of inflammation except
- A.
Increase heat, thereby produce abatement of phagocytosis
- B.
Localized tissue injury by increasing capillary permeability
- C.
Protect the issue from injury by producing pain
- D.
Prepare for tissue repair
Correct Answer
A. Increase heat, thereby produce abatement of phagocytosisExplanation
Inflammation serves several purposes in the body, including localized tissue injury by increasing capillary permeability, protecting the tissue from injury by producing pain, and preparing for tissue repair. However, increasing heat does not contribute to the abatement of phagocytosis. Phagocytosis is a process by which cells engulf and destroy pathogens or debris, and increasing heat would not hinder this process.Rate this question:

The initial response of tissue after injury is
- A.
Immediate Vasodilation
- B.
Transient Vasoconstriction
- C.
Immediate Vasoconstriction
- D.
Transient Vasodilation
Correct Answer
C. Immediate VasoconstrictionExplanation
After tissue injury, the initial response is immediate vasoconstriction. This is a protective mechanism that helps to reduce blood flow to the injured area, preventing excessive bleeding and the spread of toxins. Vasoconstriction also helps to limit tissue damage and inflammation. This response is followed by vasodilation, which increases blood flow to the injured area, facilitating the delivery of oxygen and nutrients for tissue repair. However, the immediate vasoconstriction is the first response that occurs after tissue injury.Rate this question:

The last expected process in the stages of inflammation is characterized by
- A.
There will be sudden redness of the affected part
- B.
Heat will increase on the affected part
- C.
The affected part will loss its normal function
- D.
Exudates will flow from the injured site
Correct Answer
C. The affected part will loss its normal functionExplanation
The last expected process in the stages of inflammation is the loss of normal function in the affected part. This occurs as a result of the inflammation process, which includes the release of inflammatory mediators and the recruitment of immune cells to the site of injury or infection. The loss of normal function can be due to pain, swelling, or impaired movement in the affected area.Rate this question:

- A.
Serous
- B.
Serosanguinous
- C.
Purulent
- D.
Sanguinous
Correct Answer
C. PurulentExplanation
When there is an antibody-antigen reaction as a result of a microorganism infection, purulent exudates are expected. Purulent exudates are characterized by a thick, yellowish fluid containing dead white blood cells, microorganisms, and tissue debris. This type of exudate is commonly seen in bacterial infections and indicates the presence of pus.Rate this question:

The first manifestation of inflammation is
- A.
Redness on the affected area
- B.
Swelling of the affected area
- C.
Pain, which causes guarding of the area
- D.
Increase heat due to transient vasodilation
Correct Answer
A. Redness on the affected areaExplanation
The first manifestation of inflammation is redness on the affected area. This occurs due to increased blood flow to the area, known as vasodilation. When tissues are inflamed, the blood vessels in the area widen, allowing more blood to flow to the site. This increased blood flow causes the area to appear red. Redness is a common sign of inflammation and is often accompanied by other symptoms such as swelling, pain, and heat.Rate this question:

The client has a chronic tissue injury. Upon examining the client’s antibody for a particular cellular response, Which of the following WBC component is responsible for phagocytosis in chronic tissue injury?
- A.
Neutrophils
- B.
Basophils
- C.
Eosinophils
- D.
Monocytes
Correct Answer
D. MonocytesExplanation
Monocytes are responsible for phagocytosis in chronic tissue injury. Monocytes are a type of white blood cell that can differentiate into macrophages, which are specialized cells that engulf and digest cellular debris, pathogens, and other foreign substances. In chronic tissue injury, the immune response involves the recruitment of monocytes to the site of injury, where they can phagocytize and remove damaged tissue and pathogens, promoting the healing process. Neutrophils, basophils, and eosinophils are also types of white blood cells, but they have different functions and are not primarily involved in phagocytosis in chronic tissue injury.Rate this question:

- A.
Neutrophils
- B.
Basophils
- C.
Eosinophil
- D.
Monocytes
Correct Answer
C. EosinophilExplanation
Eosinophils are a type of white blood cell that is involved in the immune response against parasitic infections and allergic reactions. In cases of anaphylaxis, which is a severe allergic reaction, there is a release of histamine and other chemicals that trigger an immune response. Eosinophils are known to increase in number during allergic reactions, including anaphylaxis, as they play a role in combating the allergic response. Therefore, eosinophils proliferate in cases of anaphylaxis.Rate this question:

Icheanne, ask you, her Nurse, about WBC Components. She got an injury yesterday after she twisted her ankle accidentally at her gymnastic class. She asked you, which WBC Component is responsible for proliferation at the injured site immediately following an injury. You answer:
- A.
Neutrophils
- B.
Basophils
- C.
Eosinophils
- D.
Monocytes
Correct Answer
A. NeutrophilsExplanation
Neutrophils are responsible for proliferation at the injured site immediately following an injury. Neutrophils are a type of white blood cell that are the first to arrive at the site of infection or injury. They play a crucial role in the immune response by engulfing and destroying bacteria and other pathogens. In the case of an injury, neutrophils are recruited to the site to help remove debris and initiate the healing process. They release enzymes and chemicals that promote inflammation and attract other immune cells to the site.Rate this question:

- A.
Phagocytosis
- B.
Emigration
- C.
Pavementation
- D.
Chemotaxis
Correct Answer
C. PavementationExplanation
Pavementation is the correct answer because it is the first process that occurs in the inflammatory response after injury. During pavementation, the endothelial cells lining the blood vessels become sticky and adhere to leukocytes, which helps to slow down their movement and allows them to migrate out of the blood vessels and into the injured tissue. This process is crucial for the recruitment of immune cells to the site of injury and the initiation of the inflammatory response.Rate this question:

This type of healing occurs when there is a delayed surgical closure of infected wound
- A.
First intention
- B.
Second intention
- C.
Third intention
- D.
Fourth intention
Correct Answer
C. Third intentionExplanation
Third intention healing, also known as delayed primary closure, occurs when there is a delayed surgical closure of an infected wound. In this type of healing, the wound is initially left open to allow for drainage and removal of infected material. Once the infection has been controlled, the wound is then surgically closed. This method is typically used when the wound is contaminated or infected and cannot be immediately closed without an increased risk of complications. It allows for the wound to heal from the inside out, reducing the risk of infection and promoting better healing.Rate this question:

Which of the following is true about therapeutic relationship?
- A.
Directed towards helping an individual both physically and emotionally
- B.
Bases on friendship and mutual trust
- C.
Goals are set by the solely nurse
- D.
Maintained even after the client doesn’t need anymore of the Nurse’s help
Correct Answer
A. Directed towards helping an individual both physically and emotionallyExplanation
A therapeutic relationship is directed towards helping an individual both physically and emotionally. This means that the focus of the relationship is to provide support and assistance in improving the person's overall well-being, addressing both their physical and emotional needs. The nurse plays a crucial role in facilitating this process by providing care, empathy, and understanding. The therapeutic relationship is not based on friendship and mutual trust, as it is a professional relationship. The goals are not set solely by the nurse, but rather collaboratively with the client. Additionally, the therapeutic relationship may not be maintained after the client no longer needs the nurse's help, as it is a temporary relationship based on the client's healthcare needs.Rate this question:
