LPN Fundamentals of Nursing Test Questions
Question 1 of 5
The nurse is teaching a patient to prepare a syringe with 40 units of U-100 NPH insulin for self-injection. The patient's first priority concerning self-injection in this situation is to:
Correct Answer: C
Rationale: Verifying the dose ensures accuracy and safety before injection.
Question 2 of 5
Postulated that FAITH is the way of behaving. He developed four theories of faith and development based on his experience.
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: John Westerhoff's faith theory, from the 1970s, sees faith as evolving behavior e.g., growing from received faith to owned faith through life. Gilligan's ethics, Fowler's abstract faith, and Freud's psychoanalysis differ. Westerhoff's experiential stages influence nursing's spiritual care, helping patients find meaning through observable faith actions.
Question 3 of 5
Florence nightingale is born in
Correct Answer: D
Rationale: Florence Nightingale was born May 12, 1820, in Florence, Italy, to British parents hence her name. She studied in Germany and worked in Britain, not France. Her Italian birth ties to her environmental theory's origins, influencing nursing's global history and her Crimean War legacy.
Question 4 of 5
John has a fever of 39.5 degrees 2 days ago, But yesterday, he has a normal temperature of 36.5 degrees. Today, his temperature surges to 40 degrees. What type of fever is John having?
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: Relapsing fever features high temps (39.5-40°C) with normal periods (36.5°C) e.g., recurring every few days, as in borrelia infections. Intermittent (daily normal), remittent (fluctuating high), and constant (stable) differ. Nurses note this e.g., two-day gap for infectious disease management, per fever types.
Question 5 of 5
When does the heart receives blood from the coronary artery?
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: Coronary arteries fill during diastole e.g., when the heart relaxes, aortic pressure pushes blood in. Systole (contraction), valve opening/closing (timing) differ. Nurses understand this e.g., in angina for perfusion timing, per cardiac cycle physiology.
