Marianne is now at the Defervescence stage of the fever, which of the following is expected?

Correct Answer: D

Rationale: Defervescence, fever's decline, involves vasodilation and sweating e.g., cooling as heat dissipates. Delirium (high fever), goose flesh (chills), or cyanosis (hypoxia) don't fit. Nurses anticipate sweating e.g., damp sheets in Marianne, adjusting care for comfort, per fever resolution stages.

Correct Answer: D

Rationale: After activity, smoking, or caffeine e.g., raising BP 30 minutes rest ensures accuracy, per AHA guidelines. Shorter times (5-15 min) risk false highs. Nurses enforce this e.g., post-exercise delay for reliable readings, standard in clinical assessment protocols.

Correct Answer: C

Rationale: Interdependent interventions rely on multiple health professionals' expertise, such as a nurse, physiotherapist, and doctor co-managing a stroke patient's rehab plan. Dependent actions follow orders (e.g., giving meds), independent ones are nurse-initiated (e.g., repositioning), and 'intradependent' isn't a term. For instance, adjusting a patient's diet with a nutritionist reflects shared knowledge, ensuring holistic care. This collaboration, common in complex cases, leverages diverse skills, enhancing outcomes like mobility or nutrition, a hallmark of modern interdisciplinary healthcare teams.

Correct Answer: A

Rationale: Total patient care, where one nurse handles all client needs like meds and hygiene is prevalent for student nurses and private duty nurses. Students benefit from focused, hands-on learning (e.g., managing a post-op patient solo), while private nurses provide personalized attention (e.g., home care). Team nursing splits tasks, primary nursing ensures continuity, and case management coordinates, but total care's simplicity suits training and one-on-one settings. Its direct accountability fosters skill mastery, widely used in educational and private contexts.

Correct Answer: C

Rationale: Moses, in ancient Hebrew texts, set sanitation laws e.g., waste disposal, quarantine earning the 'father of sanitation' title. Abraham (patriarch), Hippocrates (medicine), and Halstead (surgery) differ. His Leviticus codes predate modern hygiene, influencing public health and nursing's infection control foundations.
