    Oxygen should be given through water to: 

    • A.

      Prevent infection

    • B.

      Dilute the oxygen

    • C.

      Strengthen the oxygen

    • D.

      Prevent drying of the mucous membranes

    Correct Answer
    D. Prevent drying of the mucous membranes
    Explanation
    Oxygen should be given through water to prevent drying of the mucous membranes. The moist environment created by the water helps to keep the mucous membranes hydrated, preventing them from drying out. Dry mucous membranes can lead to discomfort, irritation, and increased risk of infection. By delivering oxygen through water, the mucous membranes are kept moist and healthy, promoting overall respiratory health.

    A cannula is: 

    • A.

      An oxygen tank

    • B.

      An external drainage system

    • C.

      A tube

    • D.

      A hypodermic needle

    Correct Answer
    C. A tube
    Explanation

    When performing catheter care, you clean the urinary meatus. The meatus should be wiped: 

    • A.

      In a circular motion

    • B.

      Back and forth

    • C.

    B. Bladder
    Explanation
    A urinary catheter is a flexible tube that is inserted into the bladder through the urethra to drain urine. It is used when a person is unable to urinate on their own or needs continuous drainage of urine. The bladder is the correct answer because it is the organ where the catheter is inserted and remains in place to collect and remove urine. The ureter is the tube that carries urine from the kidney to the bladder, while the kidney and nephron are the organs and structures involved in urine production and filtration, respectively.

    A external urinary drainage system should not be left on longer than: 

    • A.

      2 hours

    • B.

      4 hours

    • C.

      8 hours

    • D.

      24 hours

    Correct Answer
    D. 24 hours
    Explanation
    An external urinary drainage system should not be left on longer than 24 hours because prolonged use can increase the risk of infection. The system collects urine from the bladder and if left for too long, bacteria can multiply and cause urinary tract infections. It is important to regularly empty and clean the drainage bag to prevent the buildup of bacteria. Additionally, leaving the system on for extended periods can lead to skin irritation and pressure ulcers. Therefore, it is recommended to change or empty the drainage bag every 24 hours to maintain proper hygiene and minimize the risk of complications.

    Correct Answer
    colostomy
    Explanation
    An opening into the colon is called a colostomy. A colostomy is a surgical procedure that creates an artificial opening in the abdominal wall, allowing waste to bypass a diseased or damaged part of the colon and be eliminated through a stoma. This procedure is often performed to treat conditions such as colorectal cancer, diverticulitis, or inflammatory bowel disease. The colostomy can be temporary or permanent, depending on the individual's condition and the extent of the colon's damage.

    Shallow breathing takes place in the upper lobes of the lungs

    • A.

      True

    • B.

      False

    Correct Answer
    A. True

This type of breathing typically occurs in the upper lobes of the lungs, which are the parts closer to the chest and neck. The lower lobes of the lungs are responsible for deep breathing, where the breaths are larger and the lungs fully expand. Therefore, it is correct to say that shallow breathing takes place in the upper lobes of the lungs.
