ATI RN Fundamentals Exam 2 Questions

Extract:


Question 1 of 5

A nurse is reviewing the anatomy and physiologic functioning of the heart. The nurse should recognize that which statement best describes the atrial kick?

Correct Answer: A

Rationale: The correct answer is A because the atrial kick refers to the contraction of the atria towards the end of diastole. This contraction helps to push the remaining blood into the ventricles, ensuring optimal ventricular filling before the next contraction. This process improves cardiac output and efficiency.


Choice B is incorrect because the atria contract during diastole, not systole.
Choice C is incorrect as it describes the pressure exerted by the ventricles, not the atria.
Choice D is incorrect as palpitations are typically felt due to abnormal heart rhythms, not the normal contraction of the atria at the beginning of diastole.
