Practice Questions for Patient-Centered Care Questions
Question 1 of 5
An airborne infection isolation room (AIIR) is often used when a person has
Correct Answer: D
Rationale: Step-by-step rationale: 1. Tuberculosis is a highly contagious airborne disease transmitted through respiratory droplets. 2. An AIIR is equipped with negative air pressure and specialized ventilation to prevent the spread of airborne infections. 3. Using an AIIR for tuberculosis patients helps contain the infectious particles and protect others. 4. Emphysema, Bronchitis, and Bronchiectasis are not typically transmitted through the air like tuberculosis. Summary: The correct answer is D, Tuberculosis, because it is an airborne infection requiring containment in an AIIR due to its high transmission risk. Emphysema, Bronchitis, and Bronchiectasis do not necessitate such precautions as they are not primarily spread through the air.
Question 2 of 5
Type 2 diabetes usually occurs after age
Correct Answer: C
Rationale: The correct answer is C (45) because Type 2 diabetes typically develops in middle age due to factors like sedentary lifestyle, poor diet, and genetic predisposition. Onset before age 45 is less common, and occurrence after 55 is more likely to be associated with age-related factors. Choices A (25) and B (35) are too young for the typical onset of Type 2 diabetes, while choice D (55) is less accurate as diabetes can develop before this age.
Question 3 of 5
Turning upward is also called
Correct Answer: D
Rationale: The correct answer is D: Supination. Supination refers to the movement of turning the palm or foot upward. The rationale is that supination specifically describes the act of turning upward, making it the most accurate term. Rotation (Choice A) is a general term that can refer to any movement around an axis. Pronation (Choice B) is the opposite of supination, involving the turning of the palm or foot downward. Flexion (Choice C) is the bending movement, not related to turning upward. Thus, the other choices are incorrect as they do not specifically describe the action of turning upward.
Question 4 of 5
Postmortem care includes
Correct Answer: C
Rationale: The correct answer is C: Positioning the body in proper alignment. Postmortem care involves maintaining the body in a dignified and respectful manner. Proper alignment helps prevent rigor mortis and maintain a natural appearance. Covering the body completely (A) is important for privacy but not the primary focus of postmortem care. Propping the eyes open (B) is unnecessary and can be unsettling for others. Leaving on the oxygen (D) is not part of postmortem care and can be removed once death has been confirmed.
