Nursing Fundamental Physical Assessment LPN Questions
Question 1 of 5
Conceptualized the BEHAVIORAL SYSTEM MODEL
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: Dorothy Johnson's Behavioral System Model, from the 1960s, views humans as behavioral systems with seven subsystems (e.g., attachment) e.g., adjusting a child's feeding routine to stressors. Orem focuses on self-care, Henderson on needs, and Parse on becoming. Johnson's model helps nurses modify behaviors for equilibrium, influencing behavioral assessments in pediatric and psychiatric nursing.
Question 2 of 5
Which of the following is true about the NURSING CARE PLAN?
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: Nursing care plans are nurse-centered designed by nurses to address patient needs e.g., managing pain. Rationales justify interventions (not vice versa), they're written (not verbal), and goals vary (not fixed at two). This nurse-driven tool, per NANDA, ensures systematic, patient-focused care delivery.
Question 3 of 5
The difference between the systolic and diastolic pressure is termed as
Correct Answer: D
Rationale: Pulse pressure is systolic minus diastolic e.g., 120-80 = 40 mmHg reflecting arterial elasticity. Apical rate (heartbeats), cardiac rate (synonym), and pulse deficit (apex-radial gap) differ. Nurses calculate this e.g., in hypertension for cardiovascular assessment, per hemodynamic principles.
Question 4 of 5
Dr. Fabian De Las Santas, is about to conduct an ophthalmoscope examination. Which of the following, if done by a nurse, is a Correct preparation before the procedure?
Correct Answer: D
Rationale: Darkening the room enhances ophthalmoscope visibility e.g., pupil dilation for retina view unlike bright light (constricts). Draping (privacy), warming (nonsense), differ. Nurses prepare this e.g., dim lights for clear fundoscopic exams, per eye assessment protocols.
Question 5 of 5
Developed the ROLE MODELING and MODELING theory
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: Helen Erickson, Evelyn Tomlin, and Mary Ann Swain's Modeling and Role-Modeling Theory (1980s) sees nurses modeling health e.g., stress coping while adapting care to patient needs. Neuman's stressors, Newman's health expansion, and Benner's expertise differ. This theory fosters growth through tailored care, influencing holistic approaches in nursing practice and education.
