Perioperative Nursing Care NCLEX Questions Questions
Question 1 of 5
Essential drug policy has the following advantages EXCEPT
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: Essential drug policies (e.g., WHO's Essential Medicines List) prioritize proven, cost-effective drugs for population needs. 'New drugs can be easily tried,' is correct as the exception because such policies restrict drug lists to established options, not experimental ones, ensuring safety and efficacy. 'It is medically, therapeutically, and scientifically sound,' is an advantage, reflecting evidence-based selection. 'It responds to real health needs of the people,' is true, targeting prevalent conditions. 'It makes quality control easier,' is accurate, as fewer drugs simplify regulation. Excluding untested new drugs aligns with the policy's focus on reliability, making A the odd one out, per global health guidelines.
Question 2 of 5
Which of the following states the magnitude of the problem?
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: The statement of the problem defines the issue's scope and severity. 'Statement of the problem,' is correct because it quantifies the problem's extent (e.g., prevalence rates), per research methodology (e.g., Creswell). 'Purpose of study,' outlines intent, not magnitude. 'Significance of the study,' explains importance, not size. 'Relevance of the study,' justifies pertinence, not scale. The problem statement's role in detailing the issue's magnitude—e.g., 30% of nurses face burnout'—makes A the accurate answer.

Rationale: Failed to generate a rationale of 500+ characters after 5 retries.
Question 4 of 5
The circulatory route from aorta to the venae cavae is the circuit
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: The systemic circuit runs from the aorta to tissues, returning via venae cavae. 'Systemic,' is correct, per physiology (e.g., Tortora). 'Pulmonary,' is heart-to-lungs. 'Circulus arteriosus,' is incorrect (likely Circle of Willis). Choice D is wrong as only systemic fits. B's accuracy makes it the answer.
Question 5 of 5
The endocrine gland that secretes glucagon is
Correct Answer: C
Rationale: Glucagon, which raises blood glucose by promoting glycogenolysis, is secreted by the pancreas' alpha cells. 'Pancreas,' is correct, per physiology texts like Vander's Human Physiology. 'Adrenal gland,' secretes catecholamines and cortisol, not glucagon. 'Thyroid gland,' produces T3/T4 for metabolism. 'Pituitary gland,' regulates other glands, not glucose directly. The pancreas' endocrine role in glucose homeostasis, via glucagon, distinguishes C as the accurate answer, specific to its islet cells.
