Question 1 of 5
Blood pressure, wrong.
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: The correct answer is B: Take bp while sleeping. This is because blood pressure should ideally be measured during sleep to get an accurate reading unaffected by external factors such as stress or physical activity. Choice A is incorrect because past blood pressure readings may not reflect the current status. Choices C and D are incomplete and do not offer a viable alternative method for measuring blood pressure.
Question 2 of 5
Unresolved grieving
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: The correct answer is A because unresolved grieving that is too long can lead to prolonged emotional distress and interfere with daily functioning. Grieving is a natural process, but when it extends beyond a typical timeframe, it may indicate a need for further support or intervention. Choices B, C, and D are incorrect because grieving that is absent (B) may indicate suppression of emotions or denial, while options C and D are incomplete and provide no meaningful explanation.
Question 3 of 5
Ability to breathe only in an upright position
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: The correct answer is B: Orthopnea. Orthopnea is a condition where a person can breathe comfortably only when in an upright position. This occurs due to the redistribution of blood and fluid in the body, making it easier to breathe when sitting or standing. Apnea (choice A) refers to the temporary cessation of breathing, not related to body position. Choices C and D are incomplete and do not relate to the ability to breathe in an upright position.
Question 4 of 5
Uncontrolled sexual desire in a man
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: The correct answer is B: Satyriasis. Satyriasis is a clinical term used to describe excessive, uncontrollable sexual desire or behavior in men. It goes beyond normal sexual desire and can lead to harmful consequences. Choice A is incorrect because uncontrolled sexual desire is not considered normal behavior. Choices C and D are incomplete and do not provide any relevant information. Therefore, the correct diagnosis for uncontrolled sexual desire in a man is Satyriasis, as it specifically addresses the excessive and problematic nature of the behavior.
Question 5 of 5
Snellen chart 20/ 80
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: The correct answer is A because in a Snellen chart, the first number represents the distance at which the test is conducted, which is typically 20 feet. The second number indicates the distance at which a person with normal vision can read the same line that the patient being tested can read. In this case, 20/80 means the patient can read at 20 feet what a person with normal vision can read at 80 feet. Choice B is incorrect as 80 is not the patient's distance but the standard distance for comparison.
