    Which congenital defect would you suspect with uneven chest wall movements?

    • Clef lip

    • Esophageal Atresia/Trachespophageal fistuale

    • Congenital Diaphragmatic Hernia

    • Imperforated Anus

    • Pyloric Stenosis

    Correct Answer
    A. Congenital Diaphragmatic Hernia
    Explanation
    Uneven chest wall movements are indicative of a congenital diaphragmatic hernia. This condition occurs when there is a hole in the diaphragm, allowing abdominal organs to protrude into the chest cavity. As a result, the movement of the chest wall becomes uneven as the organs push against the lungs. Clef lip, esophageal atresia/trachespophageal fistuale, imperforated anus, and pyloric stenosis are not associated with uneven chest wall movements.

    What do you give for Heroin withdrawal?

    • Methadone

    • Sedatives

    • Benzodiazepines

    Correct Answer
    A. Methadone
    Explanation
    Methadone is given for heroin withdrawal because it is a long-acting opioid agonist that helps to reduce withdrawal symptoms and cravings. It works by binding to the same receptors in the brain that heroin binds to, but in a less intense way, thus preventing withdrawal symptoms. Methadone is used as a substitute for heroin and is administered under medical supervision to help individuals gradually taper off their dependence on opioids. It is considered an effective treatment option for managing heroin withdrawal and supporting recovery.

    Correct Answer
    A. 26 y.o. smoker, taking steriods, had mumps at 22 and has hypothalamic dysfunction
    Explanation
    The 26-year-old smoker who is taking steroids, had mumps at the age of 22, and has hypothalamic dysfunction would be most at risk for infertility. Smoking and steroid use can both negatively affect sperm production and quality. Mumps is known to cause inflammation of the testicles, which can lead to infertility. Hypothalamic dysfunction can disrupt the hormonal balance necessary for sperm production. Therefore, the combination of these factors puts this individual at the highest risk for infertility among the given options.

    Rate this question:

  • 18. 

    If a patient is pregnant and addicted to Heroin, she should detox immediately? 

    • True

    • False

    Correct Answer
    A. False
    Explanation
    Detoxification from heroin during pregnancy can be dangerous for both the mother and the fetus. Abruptly stopping heroin use can cause withdrawal symptoms in the mother, which can lead to complications such as premature labor or miscarriage. Additionally, detoxification can cause stress on the fetus and may result in fetal distress or even death. Instead, a pregnant woman addicted to heroin should seek medical help and undergo a supervised detoxification process under the guidance of healthcare professionals to ensure the safety of both the mother and the baby.

    Rate this question:

  • 19. 

    FASD is a lifelong disease.

    • True

    • False

    Correct Answer
    A. True
    Explanation
    FASD, which stands for Fetal Alcohol Spectrum Disorder, is indeed a lifelong disease. It is caused by prenatal exposure to alcohol and can result in a range of physical, mental, and behavioral impairments that can last throughout a person's life. These impairments can include developmental delays, learning difficulties, social and emotional problems, and physical abnormalities. Therefore, it is important to understand that FASD is not a condition that can be outgrown or cured, but rather something that individuals affected by it will have to manage and cope with for their entire lives.

    Rate this question:

  • 20. 

    You should increase the stimuli on newborns with withdrawal.

    • True

    • False

    Correct Answer
    A. False
    Explanation
    Increasing the stimuli on newborns with withdrawal is not recommended. Newborns with withdrawal are already experiencing symptoms of withdrawal from substances such as opioids, and increasing stimuli can further overwhelm their sensitive nervous systems. It is important to provide a calm and soothing environment for these infants to help them recover and minimize their distress. Therefore, the correct answer is false.

    Rate this question:

    • False

    Correct Answer
    A. False
    Explanation
    Using stirrups with a pregnant mother with cardiovascular disorders is not recommended. Stirrups are used during childbirth to position the mother's legs, but they can put pressure on the abdomen and interfere with blood flow, which can be dangerous for a pregnant woman with cardiovascular disorders. It is important to consider the specific needs and risks of each individual patient when making decisions about their care.

    Rate this question:

  • 32. 

    Lung assessment on newborn with substance withdrawal should be done: 

    • Q1h

    • Q24h

    • Q8h

    • Q12h

    Correct Answer
    A. Q1h
    Explanation
    Lung assessment on newborns with substance withdrawal should be done every hour (q1h) because these infants are at a higher risk of developing respiratory distress. Withdrawal symptoms can include respiratory difficulties, such as rapid breathing or shallow breaths, which require frequent monitoring to ensure prompt intervention if necessary. Assessing the lungs every hour allows healthcare providers to closely monitor the infant's respiratory status and provide appropriate care to prevent potential complications.

    Rate this question:

    Which congenital defect would you suspect with projectile vomiting?

    • Clef lip

    • Esophageal Atresia/Trachespophageal fistuale

    • Congenital Diaphragmatic Hernia

    • Imperforated Anus

    • Pyloric Stenosis

    Correct Answer
    A. Pyloric Stenosis
    Explanation
    Projectile vomiting is a forceful expulsion of stomach contents, which is a characteristic symptom of pyloric stenosis. Pyloric stenosis is a congenital condition where the muscle between the stomach and small intestine (pylorus) becomes thickened, causing a narrowing of the opening. This narrowing prevents the normal flow of food from the stomach to the small intestine, leading to projectile vomiting shortly after feeding. Other options like cleft lip, esophageal atresia/tracheoesophageal fistula, congenital diaphragmatic hernia, and imperforated anus do not typically present with projectile vomiting.

    Rate this question:

  • 34. 

    Which substance has an increased risk of SIDS

    • Tobacco

    • Cocaine

    • Heroin

    Correct Answer
    A. Tobacco
    Explanation
    Tobacco is associated with an increased risk of SIDS (Sudden Infant Death Syndrome). The chemicals present in tobacco smoke can harm a baby's respiratory system and increase the likelihood of SIDS. Secondhand smoke exposure also contributes to this risk. Pregnant women who smoke or are exposed to secondhand smoke are more likely to have babies at a higher risk of SIDS. Therefore, tobacco is considered a significant risk factor for SIDS.

    Rate this question:

    The priority postpartum concern for multiples pregnancy: 

    • Bleeding

    • Dehydration

    • Anemia

    Correct Answer
    A. Bleeding
    Explanation
    In a multiples pregnancy, the priority postpartum concern is bleeding. This is because multiple pregnancies often involve a higher risk of complications, such as placental abruption or uterine atony, which can lead to excessive bleeding after delivery. Prompt identification and management of bleeding are crucial to prevent further complications and ensure the mother's well-being. Dehydration and anemia can also be concerns after delivery, but they are secondary to the immediate risk of bleeding in multiples pregnancies.

    Rate this question:

    When feeding a newborn with withdrawal: 

    • Feed quickly

    • Feed slowly

    • Burp often

    • Supine position

    • HOB 30-45 degrees

    Correct Answer(s)
    A. Feed slowly
    A. Burp often
    A. HOB 30-45 degrees
    Explanation
    When feeding a newborn with withdrawal, it is important to feed slowly to prevent overfeeding and reduce the risk of regurgitation. Burping often helps to release any trapped air in the baby's stomach, preventing discomfort and colic. Keeping the head of the bed elevated at a 30-45 degree angle helps to reduce the risk of aspiration and reflux during and after feeding. These measures ensure the baby's comfort and safety during feeding.

    • Esophageal Atresia/Trachespophageal fistuale

    • Congenital Diaphragmatic Hernia

    • Imperforated Anus

    • Pyloric Stenosis

    Correct Answer
    A. Esophageal Atresia/Trachespophageal fistuale
    Explanation
    White frothy sputum and drooling are characteristic symptoms of esophageal atresia/tracheoesophageal fistula. This congenital defect occurs when the esophagus does not properly connect to the stomach, and instead, it forms an abnormal connection with the trachea. This abnormal connection allows saliva and other fluids to enter the airway, causing drooling and the production of white frothy sputum.

    Rate this question:

  • 40. 

    Labor should be induced with HIV positive mothers?

    • True

    • False

    Correct Answer
    A. False
    Explanation
    Labor should not be induced with HIV positive mothers. The decision to induce labor should be based on medical indications and the health of both the mother and the baby. HIV positive mothers can transmit the virus to their babies during childbirth, but with proper medical interventions such as antiretroviral therapy and cesarean section, the risk of transmission can be significantly reduced. Inducing labor solely based on the mother's HIV status is not supported by medical guidelines. Therefore, the answer is false.

    A. Pyloric Stenosis
    Explanation
    If a hard, movable "olive" mass is palpated in the upper belly, the most likely congenital defect would be pyloric stenosis. Pyloric stenosis is a condition where the muscle between the stomach and small intestine becomes thickened, causing a blockage. This can lead to symptoms such as projectile vomiting, weight loss, and dehydration. Palpating a hard, movable mass in the upper belly is a characteristic finding in pyloric stenosis.

    Which substance causes prune belly and necrotizing entercolitis?

    • Herion

    • Tobacco

    • Cocaine

    • Marijuana

    Correct Answer
    A. Cocaine
    Explanation
    Cocaine is a stimulant drug that can have severe effects on the body, including causing prune belly syndrome and necrotizing enterocolitis. Prune belly syndrome is a rare birth defect that affects the muscles and organs in the abdomen, leading to a wrinkled appearance of the belly. Necrotizing enterocolitis is a serious condition that primarily affects premature infants, causing inflammation and death of the intestinal tissue. Cocaine use during pregnancy has been associated with an increased risk of these conditions, making it the correct answer in this case.

    Which test for assessing female infertility: Early in menstrual cycle, scope to look for scarring, occlusions, adhesion, etc

    • Clomiphene Citrate Challenge Test

    • Endometrial Biopsy

    • Postcoital Test

    • Hysterosalpingogram

    • Laparoscopy

    • Hysteroscopy

    Correct Answer
    A. Laparoscopy
    Explanation
    Laparoscopy is a surgical procedure that allows direct visualization of the pelvic organs, including the uterus, fallopian tubes, and ovaries. It is commonly used to assess female infertility because it can detect scarring, occlusions, and adhesions that may be causing fertility issues. This procedure is typically performed early in the menstrual cycle to evaluate the reproductive organs and identify any abnormalities that may be contributing to infertility.

    Which test for assessing female infertility: Usually done with laparoscopy, removal of scar tissue, polyps, adhesion

    • Clomiphene Citrate Challenge Test

    • Endometrial Biopsy

    • Postcoital Test

    • Hysterosalpingogram

    • Laparoscopy

    • Hysteroscopy

    Correct Answer
    A. Hysteroscopy
    Explanation
    Hysteroscopy is a test used to assess female infertility. It involves the insertion of a thin, lighted tube called a hysteroscope into the uterus to examine the uterine cavity. This procedure allows for the visualization and evaluation of the uterus, including the identification and removal of scar tissue, polyps, and adhesions that may be causing infertility. Unlike laparoscopy, which is used to assess the pelvic organs, hysteroscopy specifically focuses on the uterus. Therefore, hysteroscopy is the most appropriate option for assessing female infertility in this scenario.

    How do you administer Buprenorphine (Subutex, Suboxone)?

    • IM injection

    • PO

    • Sublingual

    • IV

    Correct Answer
    A. Sublingual
    Explanation
    Buprenorphine (Subutex, Suboxone) is administered sublingually, which means it is placed under the tongue and allowed to dissolve. This method allows for the medication to be absorbed directly into the bloodstream through the tissues under the tongue, bypassing the digestive system. This route of administration is commonly used for medications that need to be rapidly absorbed and have a systemic effect. IM injection refers to intramuscular injection, PO refers to oral administration (by mouth), and IV refers to intravenous injection.

    Which substance causes an increased risk of seizures? 

    • Methadone

    • Heroin

    • PCP

    Correct Answer
    A. Methadone
    Explanation
    Methadone is a substance that can increase the risk of seizures. Methadone is a synthetic opioid medication commonly used for the treatment of opioid addiction and chronic pain. However, it can also have neuroexcitatory effects, which means it can increase the likelihood of seizures occurring. This is especially true if methadone is taken in high doses or combined with other substances that lower the seizure threshold, such as alcohol or certain medications. Therefore, individuals taking methadone should be closely monitored for any signs of seizures or changes in seizure frequency.
