Subjects to prepare
Revise the core nursing subjects first, then the general sections (General Awareness, General Science, English, Hindi, Computer).
Q1. Which of these factors would have the least influence on the survival and effectiveness of a burn victim's porcine grafts?
Immobilization of the area being grafted
Adequate vascularization in the grafted area
Absence of infection in the wounds
Use of analgesics as necessary for pain relief
Show answer and explanation
Answer: D. Use of analgesics as necessary for pain relief
Analgesic administration to keep a burn victim comfortable is important but is unlikely to influence graft survival and effectiveness. Absence of infection, adequate vascularization, and immobilization of the grafted area promote an effective graft.
Q2. Which of these techniques is correct when administering a subcutaneous injection?
Draw 0.2 mL of air into the syringe before administration
Spread the skin tightly at the injection site
Insert the needle at a 45-degree angle to the skin
Use a 1-inch needle for injection
Show answer and explanation
Answer: C. Insert the needle at a 45-degree angle to the skin
Subcutaneous injections are administered at an angle of 45 to 90 degrees, depending on the size of the patient. Subcutaneous needles are typically 3/8 to 5/8 inches in length. The skin should be pinched up at the injection site to elevate the subcutaneous tissue. Air is not drawn into the syringe for a subcutaneous injection.
Q3. All of these are characteristics of crisis except:
It is unique in every individual
It is self-limiting for 4-6 weeks
It may also affect the family of the patient
The patient may become resistive and active in stopping the crisis
Show answer and explanation
Answer: D. The patient may become resistive and active in stopping the crisis
A crisis is self-limiting (4–6 weeks), unique to each person and may affect the family. The person in crisis is usually receptive to help, not resistive.
Q4. The nurse is assessing a patient with a burn injury for indications of disruptions of the gastrointestinal system. The nurse would assess the patient for which potential problem?
Gastric distention
Paralytic ileus
Curling ulcer
Hiatal hernia
Show answer and explanation
Answer: C. Curling ulcer
A Curling ulcer, or gastrointestinal ulceration, occurs in about half of patients with a burn injury. The incidence of ulceration appears proportional to the extent of the burns, and the ulceration is believed to be caused by hypersecretion of gastric acid and compromised gastrointestinal perfusion. Paralytic ileus and gastric distention do not result from hypersecretion of gastric acid and stress and thus are not expected findings now. Hiatal hernia is not necessarily a potential complication of a burn injury.
Q5. To monitor for a temporary but common postsurgical complication of a transsphenoidal resection of the pituitary gland, the nurse should regularly perform which assessment?
Pulse rate
Temperature
Urine output
Oxygen saturation
Show answer and explanation
Answer: C. Urine output
A common complication of surgery on the pituitary gland is temporary diabetes insipidus. This results from a deficiency in antidiuretic hormone (ADH) secretion as a result of surgical trauma. The nurse measures the patient's urine output to determine whether this complication is occurring. Polyuria of 4 to 24 L per day is characteristic of this complication. Options A, B, and 4 are not specifically related to a common complication after this surgery. Priority Nursing Tip: After transsphenoidal resection of a pituitary adenoma, monitor the patient for postnasal or nasal drainage, which might indicate leakage of cerebrospinal fluid.
