Question 1 of 5
Eye drops, correct
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: The correct answer is B: 2-3 drops into the conjunctiva. This is because eye drops should be administered directly onto the conjunctiva to ensure optimal absorption and effectiveness. Placing drops into the conjunctiva also helps to minimize spillage and ensures the medication reaches the intended target area. Other choices are incorrect because dropping the medication from inner to outer canthus (A) may cause the drops to miss the eye or flow out, and choice C and D are incomplete.
Question 2 of 5
Breast self, observation
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: The correct answer is B because painless lumps in the breast are more concerning as they are often associated with breast cancer. Painful lumps are more likely to be benign cysts or fibroadenomas. Choice A is incorrect as pain is not always an indicator of severity. Choice C is also incorrect as breastlessness is not a known term in medical context.
Question 3 of 5
Patient with contact based diseases
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: Failed to generate a rationale of 500+ characters after 5 retries.
Question 4 of 5
Exchange of thoughts or ideas
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: The correct answer is B: Communication. Communication involves the exchange of thoughts or ideas between individuals. It encompasses various forms like verbal, non-verbal, written, and visual interactions. Debate, choice A, specifically refers to a formal discussion on a particular topic where opposing viewpoints are presented and argued. Choice C and D are incomplete options and do not relate to the exchange of thoughts or ideas. In summary, communication is the most appropriate choice as it directly involves the sharing and transfer of thoughts and ideas among individuals.
Question 5 of 5
Oral temperature, correct
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: The correct answer is B: Confused patient. Oral temperature should not be taken in patients who are confused or unable to cooperate, as they may not be able to hold the thermometer properly or keep their mouth closed for an accurate reading. Taking oral temperature in a confused patient can lead to inaccurate results, affecting diagnosis and treatment decisions. Choice A (Diarrhea) does not directly impact the accuracy of oral temperature measurement unless the patient is severely dehydrated. Choice C and D are likely incorrect as they are blank options. In summary, the key reason for not taking oral temperature in a confused patient is to ensure the accuracy of the reading and subsequent medical decisions.
