Question 3 of 5
Nursing is the diagnosis and treatment of human responses to health and illness'. This definition was given by
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: This definition comes from the American Nurses Association's 1995 *Nursing: Scope and Standards of Practice*, emphasizing nurses' role in addressing human responses like pain or anxiety to health conditions. The International Council of Nurses offers a broader global definition, not this specific wording. Nightingale's 1858 views focused on environmental care, not diagnosis. The Indian Nursing Council's 1948 context lacks this phrasing. The ANA's definition underscores nursing's unique scope, guiding practice and education in assessing and managing patient reactions.

Question 5 of 5
An ABG analysis report shows: pH-7.20; PCO2-35 mmHg; HCO3-20 mEq/L. These findings are suggestive of
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: ABG values show low pH (7.20, acidotic), normal PCO2 (35 mmHg, respiratory normal), and low HCO3 (20 mEq/L, metabolic loss). This indicates metabolic acidosis, like from diarrhea or ketoacidosis, where bicarbonate drops, uncompensated by respiration. Alkalosis has high pH, respiratory issues alter PCO2. Nurses correct the cause (e.g., fluids), restoring balance to prevent cellular dysfunction.
