Question 3 of 5
One of the clinical manifestations of chronic renal failure is uremic frost. Which best describes this term?
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: Uremic frost is a term used to describe the presence of urea crystals on the skin of individuals with chronic renal failure. As kidney function declines in chronic renal failure, the body is unable to effectively excrete waste products such as urea. Urea can then be deposited on the skin when sweating, leading to the formation of white or frost-like crystals, giving the appearance of "uremic frost." This condition is a visible indicator of severe kidney dysfunction and the buildup of waste products in the body.
Question 4 of 5
A client is admitted to an acute care facility with a myocardial infarction. During the admission history, the nurse learns that the client also has hypertension and progressive systemic sclerosis. For a client with this disease, the nurse is most likely to formulate which nursing diagnosis?
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: For a client with progressive systemic sclerosis, also known as Scleroderma, the nurse is most likely to formulate a nursing diagnosis related to the risk for impaired skin integrity. Scleroderma is a chronic connective tissue disease that can lead to changes in skin texture and thickness, making the skin more prone to breakdown, ulcers, and impaired wound healing. Therefore, assessing and addressing the risk for impaired skin integrity is essential to prevent complications in clients with Scleroderma. While the other options may also be relevant considerations for this client, the priority nursing diagnosis in this case would be related to maintaining skin integrity.
Question 5 of 5
A patient with abnormal sodium losses is receiving a house diet. To provide 1,600mg sodium daily, the nurse could supplement the patient's diet with:
Correct Answer: D
Rationale: One beef cube typically contains about 800mg of sodium, and 8oz of tomato juice contains approximately 480mg of sodium. Therefore, to provide a total of 1,600mg of sodium daily, the nurse could supplement the patient's diet with one beef cube (800mg sodium) and 12oz of tomato juice (720mg sodium). This combination would effectively provide the required 1,600mg of sodium per day for the patient with abnormal sodium losses.
