Question 4 of 5
These hemostatic devices date back to a period in time when they consisted of a product that was harvested from the ocean. They continue to be used today in every surgical procedure where a considerable amount of bleeding may be encountered and are still made of a natural product, but not from the ocean. Select the appropriate hemostatic device that fits this description.
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: Failed to generate a rationale of 500+ characters after 5 retries.
Question 5 of 5
Which action is a priority for the nurse to take when the low pressure alarm sounds for a patient who has an arterial line in the left radial artery?
Correct Answer: C
Rationale: Choice C as a low pressure alarm suggests hypotension, potentially from dysrhythmias, requiring immediate assessment. Flushing (choice A) or rezeroing (choice D) doesn't address the cause, and pallor (choice B) relates to occlusion, not pressure. Prioritizing dysrhythmia checks aligns with physiological integrity in NCLEX, ensuring rapid identification of life-threatening issues in critical care, where timely intervention is paramount.
