Question 3 of 5
M. T. is a 71-year-old female who presents for evaluation of a lump on her chest. She denies any symptomsthere is no pain, erythema, edema, ecchymosis, or open areasit is just a lump. She has no idea how long it has been there and just noticed it a few weeks ago. Physical examination reveals a round, smooth, flesh-colored tumor. It is firm but not hard it has smooth borders. It measures 6 cm in diameter and is non-tender to palpation. The AGACNP suspects that this is a classic presentation of the most common chest wall tumor known as a
Correct Answer: D
Rationale: The described presentation of a round, smooth, flesh-colored tumor that is firm but not hard, with smooth borders, non-tender to palpation, and measuring 6 cm in diameter, fits the classic presentation of a lipoma. Lipomas are common noncancerous soft tissue tumors often found just beneath the skin, can occur anywhere on the body, including the chest wall. They are usually painless and slowly growing, with a characteristic appearance of being smooth, soft, and mobile under the skin. In this case, the absence of pain, redness, swelling, or other concerning signs, along with the appearance and characteristics of the lump, are highly suggestive of a lipoma.
Question 4 of 5
A patient being monitored post-heart transplant suffers a bradyarrhythmia. The AGACNP knows that which of the following medications is not indicated as part of emergency intervention for bradycardic abnormalities in a posttransplant patient?
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: Epinephrine is not indicated as part of emergency intervention for bradycardic abnormalities in posttransplant patients. Epinephrine is a medication usually used in cases of cardiac arrest or severe anaphylaxis, and it can potentially exacerbate bradycardia in patients with preexisting bradyarrhythmias. In this scenario, other options such as isoproterenol, external pacemaking, and atropine are more appropriate choices for managing bradyarrhythmias in a posttransplant patient.
Question 5 of 5
M. R. is a 52-year-old female who presents complaining of significant abdominal pain, which she rates as 8 to 9 on a 1 to 10 scale. The pain has been going on for a matter of hours, and she is afraid it wont go away on its own. She denies any nausea or vomiting, and she cannot remember precisely when her last bowel movement occurred probably it was a few days ago. She reports that she is always constipated. On physical examination, she is tachycardic but otherwise has normal vital signs her abdomen is tensely rigid, but no point tenderness to palpation is appreciated. The entire abdomen percusses as tympanicthere is no distinct dullness over the upper quadrants. Bowel sounds are present but hypoactive and intermittent. There is rebound tenderness to palpation. The AGACNP suspects
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: The patient's presentation with significant abdominal pain, tachycardia, tensely rigid abdomen, rebound tenderness, hypoactive and intermittent bowel sounds, and tympanic percussion of the entire abdomen is concerning for peritonitis. Peritonitis is inflammation of the peritoneum, which is the lining of the abdominal cavity. It is often caused by an infection or irritation, such as from a perforated bowel, which can lead to the leakage of bowel contents into the peritoneal cavity. The presentation of peritonitis includes severe abdominal pain, guarding, rebound tenderness, abdominal distension, and signs of systemic inflammation like tachycardia and fever. In this case, the lack of point tenderness to palpation and the absence of dullness over the upper quadrants make perforated bowel less likely, while the tense rigidity of the abdomen and rebound tenderness are more suggestive of diffuse peritonitis.
