LPN Nursing Fundamentals Quizlet Questions
Question 1 of 5
The nurse is caring for a client with a history of asthma. Which finding is typically associated with an acute asthma attack?
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: Diminished breath sounds bilaterally typify an acute asthma attack, reflecting airway obstruction productive cough, normal rate, or high saturation don't align. Nurses auscultate, administering bronchodilators, ensuring airway patency in this respiratory emergency.
Question 2 of 5
The nurse is caring for a client with a nasogastric tube in place. To prevent irritation to the nares, the nurse should:
Correct Answer: C
Rationale: Applying water-soluble lubricant to the nares reduces irritation from a nasogastric tube taping to the forehead pulls, peroxide irritates, and daily naris swaps are unnecessary. Nurses maintain comfort, preventing breakdown, essential for prolonged tube use.
Question 3 of 5
Fracture of distal radius is called:
Correct Answer: D
Rationale: Distal radius fractures have specific names based on location and features. Hume fracture (choice A) involves the proximal ulna, not radius. Galeazzi fracture (choice B) pairs a distal radius break with radial head dislocation. Monteggia fracture (choice C) combines an ulnar shaft fracture with radial head dislocation. Colle's fracture (choice D) is a distal radius fracture, often with dorsal displacement, common in falls on outstretched hands, especially in older adults. D is correct, as it precisely names this injury. Nurses apply casts, monitor neurovascular status, and teach pain management, ensuring proper healing of this frequent fracture.
Question 4 of 5
Mission Indradhanush programme is related to:
Correct Answer: C
Rationale: Mission Indradhanush, launched in India (2014), aims to vaccinate all children against seven diseases (e.g., diphtheria, pertussis). Breastfeeding (choice A), family spacing (choice B), and nutrition (choice D) are health priorities but not its focus. Immunization (choice C) is correct, per program goals. Nurses administer vaccines, track coverage, and educate, boosting public health.
Question 5 of 5
Icheanne, ask you, her Nurse, about WBC Components. She got an injury yesterday after she twisted her ankle accidentally at her gymnastic class. She asked you, which WBC Component is responsible for proliferation at the injured site immediately following an injury. You answer:
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: Immediately following an acute injury like a twisted ankle, neutrophils (A) are the first white blood cells (WBCs) to proliferate at the site. They respond within hours, driven by chemotaxis to phagocytose pathogens and debris in the early inflammatory phase. Basophils (B) are involved in allergic responses, not acute trauma. Eosinophils (C) target parasites and allergies, not immediate injury. Monocytes (D) arrive later, becoming macrophages for chronic cleanup. Neutrophils' rapid mobilization and dominance in acute inflammation peaking within 24-48 hours make A the correct answer for this immediate post-injury scenario.
