Questions and Answers
  • 1. 

    During patient admission, when is assessment done to see if the patient is at risk of having or the patient has pressure ulcer already?

    • A.

      As soon as possible

    • B.

      Within 6 hours

    • C.

      Within 8 hours

    • D.

      Within the duration of stay

    Correct Answer
    A. As soon as possible
    Explanation
    Assessment for pressure ulcers should be done as soon as possible during patient admission to identify if the patient is at risk of developing pressure ulcers or if they already have existing pressure ulcers. Early assessment allows for timely intervention and prevention strategies to be implemented, reducing the risk of further complications. Delaying the assessment could lead to the development or worsening of pressure ulcers, causing harm to the patient. Therefore, it is crucial to assess the patient as soon as possible to ensure their safety and well-being.

    Pressure ulcers present a very real problem in almost all healthcare settings, so it is important that nurses are equipped to prevent and identify the condition.

    • A.

      True

    • B.

      False

    Correct Answer
    A. True
    Explanation
    The statement is true because pressure ulcers are a common issue in healthcare settings and can cause significant harm to patients. Nurses play a crucial role in preventing and identifying pressure ulcers by implementing appropriate interventions such as regular repositioning, using specialized support surfaces, and conducting thorough assessments. By being equipped with the knowledge and skills to prevent and identify pressure ulcers, nurses can effectively contribute to the overall well-being and safety of their patients.

    This is defined as "An unpleasant sensory and emotional experience associated with actual or potential tissue damage, or described in terms of such damage."

    Correct Answer
    Pain
    Explanation
    Pain is defined as an unpleasant sensory and emotional experience that is linked to actual or potential tissue damage. It can also be described in terms of such damage. Pain is a complex phenomenon that involves both physical and emotional components. It serves as a warning signal for the body, indicating that something is wrong or damaged. Pain can vary in intensity and duration, and it can be acute or chronic. It is a subjective experience, as individuals may perceive and describe pain differently.

    Rate this question:

  • 4. 

    A patient received an intravenous pain medication, as a nurse you should re-assess pain level and effectiveness of medication after how many minutes after administration?

    • A.

      45 minutes

    • B.

      1 hour

    • C.

      15 minutes

    • D.

      30 minutes

    Correct Answer
    C. 15 minutes
    Explanation
    After receiving an intravenous pain medication, it is important for a nurse to re-assess the patient's pain level and the effectiveness of the medication. This should be done after 15 minutes because it allows enough time for the medication to take effect and for the patient to experience its maximum pain-relieving benefits. Assessing the pain level and effectiveness after this time frame helps the nurse determine if any adjustments or further interventions are necessary to ensure the patient's comfort and well-being.

    Correct Answer
    30
    Explanation
    The desired dose is 80 mEqs per orem, and the stocked dose is 40 mEqs per 15 mL. To find the quantity to administer, we can use the formula: Desired Dose/ Stocked Dose x Quantity. Plugging in the values, we get 80 mEqs/40 mEqs x 15 mL = 30 mL. Therefore, you will administer 30 milliliters.

    RN RJ is about to change the intravenous fluid of patient 1658 Osmon. Identify the appropriate osmolality of 5% Dextrose in Water?

    • A.

      Isotonic

    • B.

      Hypertonic

    • C.

      Hypotonic

    Correct Answer
    A. Isotonic
    Explanation
    A 5% Dextrose in Water solution is isotonic because it has the same osmolality as the body's cells and fluids. Isotonic solutions have the same concentration of solutes as the cells, which means they do not cause any net movement of water into or out of the cells. This makes them suitable for maintaining fluid balance and preventing cell damage.

Compute for the mcg/kg/min to check if the patient is receiving the therapeutic dose.Stock Dose:200mg/5mlDrop Factor:15Formula:Drop factor=      dose in mg x 1000                           ------------------------                               IV diluent x 60mcg/kg/min =      gtt factor X ml/hr                          -----------------------                                weight in kg  

    Correct Answer
    3.58
    Explanation
    The answer of 3.58 is obtained by substituting the given values into the formula provided. The stock dose of Dopamine is 200mg/5ml, so the dose in mg is 400mg. The IV diluent is 250ml. The drop factor is 15. The patient's weight is 126lb, which needs to be converted to kg. Finally, the ml/hr is given as 8ml/hr. By plugging these values into the formula, we can calculate the mcg/kg/min.

    Computation: Compute the given value to the desired unit of measurement. (No need to write the unit of measurement, just the answer. Example. 0.07) (Write your answer in two decimal places)A patient with deep vein thrombosis has an order of Heparin 800 units/ hr. The concentration is heparin 50, 000 units in 500ml of D5W. How many ml/ hour should the IV pump be programmed for? Stock Dose:Heparin: 5,000 units/ 5mlFormula:ml/hr= units/hour x IV diluent             ----------------------------              Total units of Heparin

    Correct Answer
    8.80
    Explanation
    The IV pump should be programmed for 8.80 ml/hour. This calculation is based on the formula ml/hr = units/hour x IV diluent / Total units of Heparin. In this case, the units/hour is 800 units, the IV diluent is 500 ml, and the total units of Heparin is 50,000 units. Plugging these values into the formula gives us ml/hr = 800 units/hour x 500 ml / 50,000 units, which simplifies to ml/hr = 8.80.

    Correct Answer
    9.70
    Explanation
    The IV pump should be programmed for 9.70 ml/hr. This is calculated using the given formula, where the dose in mg is 500mg (from the concentration of Dobutamine), the IV diluent is 200ml (from the concentration of D5W), the mcg/kg/min is 7mcg/kg/min (from the patient's order), the weight in kg is 55kg (from the patient's weight), and the drop factor is not provided. By substituting these values into the formula, we can calculate the ml/hr, which is 9.70.

    Physical non-pharmacologic management for pain refers to techniques or interventions that do not involve the use of medications. Massage and acupuncture are examples of physical non-pharmacologic pain management techniques that can help alleviate pain. Surgery, on the other hand, is a medical intervention that may be necessary for certain conditions but is not considered a physical non-pharmacologic pain management technique. Analgesics, such as pain medications, are pharmacologic interventions and not physical non-pharmacologic management for pain. Therefore, the correct answer is Analgesics.

The doctor ordered Etoricoxib (Arcoxia) 120mg/ tablet, once a day per orem and Paracetamol (Naprex) 300mg/ 2ml intravenously every 4 hours. As a nurse with the basic knowledge about pain, what type of pain mechanism is Patient Camille experiencing?

    • B.

      Moderate Pain

    • C.

      Severe Pain

    • D.

      Nociceptive Pain

    Correct Answer
    D. Nociceptive Pain
    Explanation
    The patient's severe pain and the fact that she has a comminuted fracture on her right tibia suggest that she is experiencing nociceptive pain. Nociceptive pain is caused by the activation of nociceptors, which are sensory receptors that respond to potentially damaging stimuli. In this case, the fracture would be the source of the pain, and the severity of the pain indicates that it is nociceptive in nature. Neuropathic pain is caused by damage or dysfunction of the nervous system, which is not mentioned in the scenario. Moderate and severe pain are not specific mechanisms of pain, but rather descriptions of the intensity of the pain.
