Question 2 of 5

Anastacia Giron-Tupas was the first Filipino nurse to occupy the position of chief nurse in this hospital.

Correct Answer: C

Rationale: Anastacia Giron-Tupas, a pioneering Filipino nurse, became chief nurse at Philippine General Hospital, marking a milestone in local nursing leadership. Unlike St. Paul, Iloilo, or St. Luke's, PGH's prominence made her role significant, influencing professional advancement and recognition for Filipino nurses in the early 20th century.

Question 3 of 5

Which of the following is recognized for developing the concept of HIGH LEVEL WELLNESS?

Correct Answer: D

Rationale: Halbert Dunn's High-Level Wellness (1950s) concept frames health as maximizing potential within environmental limits e.g., thriving despite chronic illness. Unlike Erikson's stages, Madaw (unknown), or Peplau's relations, Dunn's idea influences nursing's focus on optimal functioning, not just disease absence, shaping wellness programs.

Question 4 of 5

When John has been given paracetamol, his fever was brought down dramatically from 40 degrees Celsius to 36.7 degrees in a matter of 10 minutes. The nurse would assess this event as:

Correct Answer: A

Rationale: Paracetamol dropping fever from 40°C to 36.7°C in 10 minutes fully meets the goal of fever reduction e.g., normal range (36.6-38°C) achieved. Partial or unmet goals imply residual fever; undesired criteria suggest side effects (none here). Nurses document this success, per outcome evaluation standards.

Question 5 of 5

Which of the following is TRUE about the blood pressure determinants?

Correct Answer: C

Rationale: Hematocrit (HCT) 70% e.g., polycythemia can raise BP (viscosity) or lower it (poor flow), unlike hypervolemia (raises BP, GFR), or epinephrine (raises BP). Nurses assess this e.g., in anemia for variable impacts, per circulatory dynamics.
