Adult Health Nursing First Chapter Quizlet Questions
Question 1 of 5
Nurse Crissel also asked the participants if they got to know the transmission of HIV based from her lecture? Which is NOT correct?
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: Nurse Crissel likely informed the participants that HIV is not casually transmitted through activities like kissing. HIV transmission primarily occurs through activities that involve the exchange of bodily fluids, such as blood, semen, vaginal fluids, and breast milk. Accidental blood exposure, unprotected sex, and mother to child transmission are known routes of HIV transmission due to the direct exchange of bodily fluids containing the virus. However, the virus is not spread through saliva, including activities like kissing, which do not involve the exchange of significant amounts of bodily fluids.
Question 2 of 5
In admitting the injured patients, which of the following should be the FIRST that should be done by the emergency team? They should assess the patients ________.
Correct Answer: C
Rationale: Assessing the patient's airway is the first priority when admitting injured patients. A clear airway is crucial for effective breathing. If the airway is obstructed, the patient will not be able to breathe properly, leading to serious consequences. Therefore, ensuring a patent airway takes precedence over assessing breathing, circulation, or vital signs. Once the airway is secured, the emergency team can proceed with assessing breathing, circulation, and vital signs in order to provide appropriate treatment and care.
Question 3 of 5
The toddlers years are a time of great cognitive, emotional and social development. The toddles is a child _______ months old.
Correct Answer: C
Rationale: Toddlers are typically children who are 1 to 3 years old. In this context, the toddlers are children in the age range of 9 to 36 months old. This period is marked by significant cognitive, emotional, and social development as children in this age group start to explore their environments, develop their language skills, begin to understand emotions, and interact with others. It is a crucial stage in a child's development where they start becoming more independent and forming their own identities.
Question 4 of 5
As part of the teaching plan, Nurse Angie teaches that oral contraceptives contains estrogen. Which of the following is the Action of Estrogen? It inhibits the _______.
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: Estrogen exerts negative feedback on the hypothalamus by inhibiting the release of GnRH (Gonadotropin-Releasing Hormone). GnRH plays a crucial role in the regulation of follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) and luteinizing hormone (LH) production from the pituitary gland. By inhibiting the release of GnRH, estrogen ultimately leads to a decrease in FSH and LH levels. This process helps to suppress the maturation of the egg and ovulation, providing contraceptive effects.
Question 5 of 5
Patient Hydee asks how she could Distinguish between true and false labor? Which is NOT included among the factors in which the nurse should base her answer from?
Correct Answer: D
Rationale: The engagement of the fetus refers to the baby's head moving down into the mother's pelvis in preparation for birth. This factor is not typically used to distinguish between true and false labor because it is a sign of progress in labor rather than a defining characteristic of true labor. In contrast, the factors that are commonly used to differentiate between true and false labor include contractions (e.g., regularity, intensity, duration), cervical changes observed through vaginal examination (e.g., effacement and dilation), and monitoring vital signs.
