A Review of Basic Patient Rights in Psychiatric Care Questions
Question 1 of 5
For a nursing assistant pressure injury care includes
Correct Answer: D
Rationale: The correct answer is D because keeping the skin dry helps prevent pressure injuries by reducing moisture-related skin breakdown. Moisturizing open skin (B) can worsen the condition. Restricting fluids (A) is not recommended as hydration is essential. Changing position every four hours (C) is important but not the primary focus for pressure injury care.
Question 2 of 5
A disorder caused by a buildup of fluid in the inner ear is
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: The correct answer is B: Meniere's disease. Meniere's disease is a disorder characterized by a buildup of fluid in the inner ear, leading to symptoms like vertigo, hearing loss, tinnitus, and a feeling of fullness in the ear. Otitis media (A) is an infection of the middle ear, not caused by fluid buildup. Glaucoma (C) is a condition affecting the eyes due to increased pressure in the eye, not related to the inner ear. Myopia (D) is a refractive error of the eye, unrelated to fluid buildup in the inner ear. Thus, Meniere's disease is the correct answer.
Question 3 of 5
What is an opportunistic infection?
Correct Answer: D
Rationale: The correct answer is D because an opportunistic infection is an illness caused by microorganisms that typically do not cause disease in individuals with healthy immune systems but can lead to infections in people with weakened immune systems. This occurs because the weakened immune system is unable to effectively defend against these microorganisms. Choice A is incorrect because it describes abnormal cell growth, which is not the definition of an opportunistic infection. Choice B is incorrect as it refers to the temporary disappearance of cancer symptoms, not related to opportunistic infections. Choice C is also incorrect as it describes a specific disorder related to bladder inflammation, not opportunistic infections.
Question 4 of 5
Straightening a body part is also called
Correct Answer: C
Rationale: The correct answer is C: Extension. Extension refers to the straightening of a body part, such as extending the arm or leg. Flexion (A) is the bending of a body part. Pronation (B) refers to the downward rotation of the forearm. Adduction (D) is the movement of a body part towards the midline. In this case, extension is the most appropriate term as it specifically describes the action of straightening a body part, making it the correct answer.
Question 5 of 5
The process of burning a dead body until it turns to ash is
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: The correct answer is A: Cremation. Cremation is the process of burning a dead body until it turns to ash. This is done in a specialized furnace called a crematorium. Libation (B) is a ritual pouring of a liquid as an offering to a deity. Pronation (C) is the act of lying face down. Expiration (D) refers to the act of breathing out or the ending of something, not the process of burning a body. In summary, cremation is the only choice that accurately describes the process of burning a dead body to ash.
