Question 1 of 9
The system used at the division level and forward comprises six basic modules. Which module is staffed with two surgeons, two nurse anesthetists, a medical/surgical nurse, two operating room specialists, and two practical nurses?
Correct Answer: D
Rationale: The correct answer is D, Forward Surgical Team (FST). The FST is staffed with two surgeons, two nurse anesthetists, a medical/surgical nurse, two operating room specialists, and two practical nurses. This specialized team is designed to provide immediate surgical care close to the frontline. Choices A, B, and C are incorrect as they do not match the specific composition of personnel described in the question.
Question 2 of 9
A nurse is reviewing the laboratory results for a client with a history of atherosclerosis and notes elevated cholesterol levels. Which statement by the client indicates the nurse should plan follow-up instruction on a low-cholesterol diet?
Correct Answer: C
Rationale: The correct answer is C. Eating three eggs daily increases cholesterol intake, which could exacerbate atherosclerosis. Omega-3 supplements, cooking with canola oil, and flavoring meat with lemon juice do not significantly impact cholesterol levels compared to consuming three eggs daily. Therefore, the nurse should focus on educating the client to reduce egg consumption to improve cholesterol levels.
Question 3 of 9
When a field medical element is not operational, it engages in training to achieve readiness for mobilization that involves all aspects of operation. Individuals must be proficient in their MOS/ASI and which of the following?
Correct Answer: C
Rationale: In this scenario, when a field medical element is not operational, training is essential to prepare for mobilization. Proficiency in MOS/ASI (Military Occupational Specialty/Area of Specialization) is crucial, along with proficiency in common soldier tasks. Common soldier tasks encompass fundamental skills and knowledge that are essential for operational readiness and mobilization. Options A, B, and D are not as directly related to individual readiness for mobilization in this context.
Question 4 of 9
The client has failed to conceive after many attempts over a three-year time period and asks the nurse, "I have tried everything. What should I do now?" Which statement is the nurse's best response?
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: The correct response is to assess the intravenous fluids for rate and volume. In this situation, the client is seeking guidance on fertility issues, not related to intravenous fluids, surgical dressing changes, medication levels, or meal monitoring. The nurse should provide supportive and empathetic guidance, suggesting further options like consulting fertility specialists or exploring additional treatments.
Question 5 of 9
The client has failed to conceive after many attempts over a three-year time period and asks the nurse, "I have tried everything. What should I do now?" Which statement is the nurse's best response?
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: The nurse's best response should focus on providing empathetic support and guiding the client to explore further options, such as fertility specialists or treatments. Assessing intravenous fluids for rate and volume is not relevant to the client's concern about infertility. Changing surgical dressing, monitoring medication levels, and tracking meal intake are all unrelated to the client's fertility issues.
Question 6 of 9
What is the primary goal of care for a client diagnosed with sickle cell anemia?
Correct Answer: C
Rationale: The primary goal of care for a client diagnosed with sickle cell anemia is to help them live as normal a life as possible. This involves managing symptoms, preventing crises, and promoting overall well-being. While options A, B, and D are important aspects of care, the ultimate goal is to enhance the client's quality of life and support them in leading a fulfilling and active lifestyle despite their condition.
Question 7 of 9
What is the combat health support system in the field designed to do?
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: The combat health support system in the field is primarily designed to project, sustain, and protect the health of soldiers during war and other operations. Choice A is incorrect as it focuses solely on evacuation and delaying return to duty, missing the broader scope of health support. Choice C is incorrect as it only mentions rearward evacuation and reassignment, which is not the sole purpose of the combat health support system. Choice D is also incorrect as it emphasizes far rear area care and delayed return to duty, neglecting the comprehensive nature of health support in combat situations.
Question 8 of 9
Enteral feedings may be appropriate for patients with:
Correct Answer: D
Rationale: Enteral feedings are commonly utilized for patients experiencing acute exacerbations of Crohn's disease to provide necessary nutrition and rest the bowel. Choices A, B, and C are incorrect because enteral feedings are not typically indicated for acute cholecystitis, hepatic encephalopathy, or ulcerative colitis in remission.
Question 9 of 9
The client with chronic alcoholism has chronic pancreatitis and hypomagnesemia. What should the nurse assess when administering magnesium sulfate to the client?
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: Corrected Rationale: When administering magnesium sulfate to a client with chronic alcoholism, chronic pancreatitis, and hypomagnesemia, the nurse should assess deep tendon reflexes. Magnesium sulfate can depress the central nervous system and decrease deep tendon reflexes, so monitoring them is crucial. Assessing arterial blood gases, skin turgor, or capillary refill time is not directly related to the administration of magnesium sulfate in this scenario.
