Question 1 of 5
Which statement best describes cyberchondria?
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: Cyberchondria is a term used to describe heightened anxiety that arises from compulsively searching for health-related information online, often leading to unnecessary worry about potential health conditions. 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.
Question 2 of 5
Why is it important for healthcare professionals to protect a patient's health record?
Correct Answer: D
Rationale: Protecting health records is essential to comply with laws like HIPAA, safeguarding sensitive information and maintaining patient trust. Patients have the right to access their records, access is restricted to authorized personnel, and efficiency is a secondary goal.
Question 3 of 5
A 2-year-old is being treated for a pneumonia. The health care provider orders 15mg/kg of amoxicillin/clavulanic acid to be administered every 12 hours. The child weighs 25 pounds. The elixir comes in a strength of 250 mg/5 mL. How many mL of amoxicillin/clavulanic acid should the nurse administer to this child per dose? mL (Round to the nearest tenth)
Correct Answer: 3.4 mL/dose
Rationale: Calculation: 25 lbs = 11.34 kg, 15 mg/kg * 11.34 kg = 170.1 mg/dose, 170.1 mg / (250 mg/5 mL) = 3.4 mL/dose.
Question 4 of 5
Which of the following statements explains why it is important that nurses learn to evaluate electronic and published health information?
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: Ensuring that nurses use reliable, evidence-based information directly impacts the quality of care and improves client outcomes. Using electronic information for teaching and identifying research areas are secondary benefits.
Question 5 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.
