Question 1 of 5

Your patient has been confused for years. Your patient can be best described as having a chronic ___________ disorder.

Correct Answer: C

Rationale: Patients who experience long-term confusion often have a chronic thinking, or cognitive, disorder. Alzheimer's disease is a prime example of a disorder that results in prolonged confusion and memory loss.
Choice A, 'physical', is incorrect as the issue described is related to cognitive functioning, not physical health.
Choice B, 'psychotic', refers to a severe mental disorder characterized by a loss of contact with reality, which is not the primary issue presented in the scenario.
Choice D, 'palliative', is not relevant as it pertains to specialized medical care for individuals with serious illnesses, focusing on providing relief from symptoms and stress rather than managing chronic confusion.
