A Review of Basic Patient Rights in Psychiatric Care Questions
Question 1 of 5
What is an opportunistic infection?
Correct Answer: D
Rationale: The correct answer is D because an opportunistic infection is an illness caused by microorganisms that typically do not cause disease in individuals with healthy immune systems but can lead to infections in people with weakened immune systems. This occurs because the weakened immune system is unable to effectively defend against these microorganisms. Choice A is incorrect because it describes abnormal cell growth, which is not the definition of an opportunistic infection. Choice B is incorrect as it refers to the temporary disappearance of cancer symptoms, not related to opportunistic infections. Choice C is also incorrect as it describes a specific disorder related to bladder inflammation, not opportunistic infections.
Question 2 of 5
The process of burning a dead body until it turns to ash is
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: The correct answer is A: Cremation. Cremation is the process of burning a dead body until it turns to ash. This is done in a specialized furnace called a crematorium. Libation (B) is a ritual pouring of a liquid as an offering to a deity. Pronation (C) is the act of lying face down. Expiration (D) refers to the act of breathing out or the ending of something, not the process of burning a body. In summary, cremation is the only choice that accurately describes the process of burning a dead body to ash.
