Question 1 of 5
The nurse is assessing a patient who is diagnosed with tuberculosis. Which assessment finding correlates with this diagnosis?
Correct Answer: C
Rationale: Hemoptysis is a classic TB symptom due to lung vessel erosion.
Question 2 of 5
What term is used to identify requirements associated with the implementation of electronic health records (EHRS) that are designed to improve the delivery of health care?
Correct Answer: D
Rationale: Meaningful use refers to a set of criteria established to ensure that EHRs are used effectively to improve healthcare delivery, enhance patient safety, and facilitate data sharing. Performance reporting involves tracking outcomes but is not a requirement for EHR implementation. Support activities are secondary tasks, not core requirements. Core functions describe essential features of an EHR but do not encompass the broader goals of meaningful use.
Question 3 of 5
Which of the following factors limits the usefulness of electronic health care information for consumers?
Correct Answer: C
Rationale: The lack of standardization and oversight leads to variable quality and reliability of online healthcare information, limiting its usefulness for consumers. Many reliable resources are free or low-cost, and the rapid expansion of internet providers enhances access, not limits it.

It is not classified as a personality disorder. It is not typical of most consumers; it is specific to individuals with excessive and anxiety-driven search behaviors. The correct answer is the statement that accurately defines cyberchondria.
