Correct Answer: D

Rationale: The correct answer is D. In bronchiectasis, worsening cough with position changes is an assessment finding due to increased sputum production and airway obstruction. This occurs because of the pooling of secretions in the affected bronchi. Choices A, B, and C are incorrect because in bronchiectasis, there is typically increased sputum production over time, productive cough with expectoration of large amounts of sputum, and cough that worsens with activity or physical exertion, rather than with position changes.

Correct Answer: B

Rationale: The correct answer is B because encouraging the intake of low-sodium liquids like coffee or tea can worsen hyponatremia. Hyponatremia is a condition characterized by low sodium levels in the blood, so encouraging low-sodium liquids would further dilute the sodium levels. The other choices are correct interventions for hyponatremia: A) assessing for symptoms helps in monitoring the patient's condition, C) monitoring neurological status is crucial as hyponatremia can lead to neurological complications, and D) restricting tap water intake helps in managing fluid intake and preventing further dilution of sodium levels.

Correct Answer: A

Rationale: The correct answer is A: New set of tracheostomy tubes and Oxygen tank. Rationale: 1. New set of tracheostomy tubes: Essential for reinserting the cannulas to secure the airway. 2. Oxygen tank: To ensure James has a stable oxygen supply while the tracheostomy tubes are being reinserted. Summary of incorrect choices: B: Theophylline and Epinephrine - These medications are not directly related to managing a dislodged tracheostomy. C: Obturator and Kelly clamp - While these are useful tools for tracheostomy care, they are not the immediate equipment needed in this emergency situation. D: Sterile saline dressing - This is not relevant for a dislodged tracheostomy; the priority is securing the airway.

Correct Answer: A

Rationale: The correct answer is A: Removal of the transplanted kidney. Hyperacute rejection is a severe and immediate immune response to the transplanted organ. In this case, the transplanted kidney must be removed promptly to prevent further complications, as it is irreversibly damaged. High-dose IV cyclosporine (B) is used for immunosuppression but is not effective in treating hyperacute rejection. Bone marrow transplant (C) is not indicated for kidney rejection. Intra-abdominal instillation of methylprednisolone sodium succinate (D) is used for acute rejection, not hyperacute rejection.

Correct Answer: B

Rationale: The correct answer is B: Protein. Antibodies are a type of protein produced by the immune system to help identify and neutralize pathogens like bacteria and viruses. Proteins are composed of amino acids, which are the building blocks of proteins. Antibodies have a specific structure that allows them to bind to specific antigens. Fat (A), Sugar (C), and Carbohydrates (D) are not primary components of antibodies and do not play a significant role in their structure or function.
