Question 1 of 5
Established in 1906 by the Baptist foreign mission society of America. Miss rose nicolet, was it's first superintendent.
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: Iloilo Mission Hospital School of Nursing, founded in 1906 by Baptists under Rose Nicolet, pioneered nursing education in the Philippines. Unlike St. Paul, PGH, or St. Luke's, it reflects missionary roots, training nurses in Western methods. This institution shaped early standards e.g., hygiene focus marking a key historical step in Filipino nursing's development.
Question 2 of 5
The characteristic fever in Dengue Virus is characterized as:
Correct Answer: C
Rationale: Dengue's biphasic fever spike (days 1-3), drop, then rash-phase rise e.g., 39°C, normal, 38°C sets it apart. Tricyclic, bicyclic (undefined), and triphasic (three peaks) don't fit. Nurses monitor this e.g., day 4 drop for critical phase care, per disease profiles.
Question 3 of 5
Which of the following is TRUE about the mechanism of action of the Aortic and Carotid bodies?
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: Aortic and carotid bodies slow respiration when BP rises e.g., baroreceptors reduce O2 need. Increased RR (hypoxia), alkalosis (pH), or acidosis (metabolic) don't fit. Nurses note this e.g., hypertension for adjustments, per cardiovascular interplay.
Question 4 of 5
When should the client test his blood sugar levels for greater accuracy?
Correct Answer: C
Rationale: Before meals fasting e.g., baseline sugar is accurate, unlike during (eating), between (variable), post-meal (spike). Nurses advise e.g., AM for monitoring, per endocrinology.
