Question 1 of 5

A patient in the ICU develops acute myocardial infarction (MI) with cardiogenic shock. What intervention should the healthcare team prioritize to manage the patient's shock?

Correct Answer: A

Rationale: In a patient with acute myocardial infarction (MI) complicated by cardiogenic shock, the primary intervention to manage shock is emergent percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). PCI is a procedure performed to restore blood flow in an occluded coronary artery that is causing the MI. By opening up the blocked artery and restoring blood flow to the heart muscle, PCI can help reduce myocardial damage, improve cardiac function, and stabilize the patient's condition. Prompt reperfusion via PCI is crucial in the setting of cardiogenic shock to improve survival outcomes and reduce the risk of further complications. Administering inotropic medications, initiating therapeutic hypothermia, or recommending anticoagulant therapy may be components of management in specific cases but are not the primary intervention for managing shock in a patient with acute MI and cardiogenic shock.

Question 2 of 5

Nurse Rosa is able to know the patterns of occurrence and distribution of diseases in the community . Per record she found out there had been cases of rabies at irregular intervals scattered in particular places. This occurrence rates to ______.

Correct Answer: D

Rationale: The occurrence of rabies at irregular intervals scattered in particular places indicates a sporadic pattern. Sporadic diseases are those that occur infrequently and irregularly in a population. These diseases do not have a consistent pattern of occurrence and are not confined to a specific geographic area or population group. In this case, the cases of rabies being reported at irregular intervals and scattered in particular places suggest a sporadic distribution rather than an endemic (constantly present in a population), epidemic (sudden increase in cases in a specific population), or pandemic (global spread of a disease) pattern.

Question 3 of 5

Clients who are taught a variety of skills such as measuring blood glucose, taking blood pressure, changing dressings, and bathing infants belong to which domain of learning?

Correct Answer: A

Rationale: Clients who are taught skills such as measuring blood glucose, taking blood pressure, changing dressings, and bathing infants are learning skills that involve physical movement and coordination. These activities require the integration of mental and physical skills, and they fall under the psychomotor domain of learning. In this domain, individuals develop physical skills and coordination through practice and repetition. The psychomotor domain is one of the three domains of learning, along with the cognitive domain (which involves knowledge and intellectual skills) and the affective domain (which involves emotions, values, and attitudes).

Question 4 of 5

Based on the Right to Privacy and Confidentiality under the Patient's Bill of Rights, the patient has the right to demand on the following, but NOT _______ pertaining to his care as confidential.

Correct Answer: D

Rationale: The patient has the right to demand that information, records, and communications pertaining to their care be kept confidential under the Right to Privacy and Confidentiality as outlined in the Patient's Bill of Rights. However, financial status is generally not considered part of the confidential medical information and may not fall under the same level of protection as personal health information. Therefore, the patient cannot demand that their financial status be treated as confidential under this particular right.
