Nursing Process Quizlet Questions Questions
Question 1 of 5
Which of the ff blood vessel is commonly affected by thrombophlebitis?
Correct Answer: C
Rationale: The correct answer is C, veins deep in the lower extremities, due to stasis and immobility in the legs causing blood to pool and predispose to thrombus formation. This is known as deep vein thrombosis (DVT). Veins deep in the upper extremities (A) are less commonly affected. The popliteal vein of the leg (B) is a common site for DVT, but it is not the most commonly affected. Veins connected to the heart (D) are arteries, not veins, and are not typically involved in thrombophlebitis.
Question 2 of 5
Which of the ff should a client with auto immune disorder be advised to avoid?
Correct Answer: C
Rationale: The correct answer is C: Being in crowds during the periods of immunosuppression. Clients with autoimmune disorders have compromised immune systems, making them more susceptible to infections. Being in crowds increases the risk of exposure to various pathogens, potentially leading to infections. Avoiding crowds during periods of immunosuppression helps minimize the risk of infections. A: Resting during the periods of severe exacerbation is important for managing symptoms and conserving energy, but it is not specifically related to avoiding triggers for autoimmune disorders. B: Regular exercise during the periods of remission is beneficial for overall health and can help manage autoimmune disorders, as long as it is appropriate and not excessive. D: Humid environments during the periods of remission do not directly impact autoimmune disorders unless the individual has a specific sensitivity to humidity.
Question 3 of 5
Which of the ff is the main reason why older clients with AIDS need more care than their younger counterparts?
Correct Answer: C
Rationale: The correct answer is C because older clients with AIDS have a faster progression of the disease due to age-related changes in the immune system, making them more vulnerable to complications. This results in a greater need for care compared to younger counterparts. Choice A is incorrect as lack of balanced diet and activity does not directly relate to the progression of AIDS. Choice B is incorrect as knowledge about disorders is not the main factor affecting the level of care needed. Choice D is incorrect as adherence to therapy is important but not the main reason older clients need more care.
Question 4 of 5
Which white blood cells are involved in releasing histamine during an allergic reaction?
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: The correct answer is A: Basophils. Basophils are a type of white blood cell that release histamine during allergic reactions. They contain granules filled with histamine, which is released when they encounter an allergen. Monocytes, eosinophils, and neutrophils do not release histamine during allergic reactions. Monocytes are involved in immune response and inflammation, eosinophils are responsible for combating parasitic infections, and neutrophils are primarily involved in fighting bacterial infections.
Question 5 of 5
The nurse is preparing to administer a unit of blood to a client’s who’s anemic. After its removal from the refrigerator, the blood should be administered within:
Correct Answer: C
Rationale: The correct answer is C: 2 hours. Blood should be administered within 30 minutes to 4 hours after removal from the refrigerator to prevent bacterial growth and maintain its efficacy. Option C falls within this timeframe, ensuring safety and effectiveness. Option A (1 hour) is too short, while option B (4 hours) and option D (6 hours) exceed the recommended timeframe, increasing the risk of bacterial contamination and compromising the quality of the blood product.
