Question 2 of 5
The Fowler's position means the resident is positioned in a
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: The correct answer is B: 45 to 60-degree angle. The Fowler's position is commonly used in healthcare to promote optimal lung expansion and aid in breathing. A 45 to 60-degree angle allows for improved chest expansion and ventilation. Choice A (60 to 90-degree angle) is too upright and may cause discomfort. Choices C (25 to 40-degree angle) and D (15 to 30-degree angle) are too low to achieve the desired lung expansion and may not provide adequate support for breathing. Thus, B is the most suitable option for the Fowler's position.
Question 3 of 5
__________ hypotension exists when there is a sudden drop in blood pressure when a person stands or sits up.
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: The correct answer is A: Orthostatic. Orthostatic hypotension refers to a sudden drop in blood pressure upon standing or sitting up. "Ortho" means upright or standing, which is relevant to the context of the question. Severe (B) is too general and does not specify the specific type of hypotension. Multi-faceted (C) and Hyperbolic (D) are not terminologies used in describing hypotension and are unrelated to the situation described in the question.

Summary of other choices: B: Stomatitis is inflammation of the mouth and lips, not related to intestinal procedures. C: Hemorrhoid is a swollen vein in the rectum or anus, not related to creating an artificial opening in the abdomen. D: Contracture is the shortening or hardening of muscles, not relevant to the formation of a stoma.
