Answer: D. “Peptic ulcers are associated with H. pylori, although there are other ulcers that are associated with stress.”

63. Answer D is correct. Peptic ulcers are not always related to stress but are a component of the disease. Answers A and B are incorrect because peptic ulcers are not caused by overeating or continued exposure to stress. Answer C is incorrect because peptic ulcers are related to but not directly caused by stress.

Show answer and explanation

Answer: C. Disturbances in cognition and consciousness that fluctuate dur day

In addition to developing over a period of hours or days, fluctuating symptoms are characteristic of delirium. The failure to identify objects despite intact sensory functions, significant impairment in social or occupational functioning over time, and memory impairment to the degree of being called amnesia all indicate dementia.

Q5. The heart rate of a newly born term neonate is regular at 142 bpm. Which of these should the nurse do next?

  1. Document this as a normal neonatal finding
  2. Notify the neonate's pediatrician
  3. Assess the heart rate again in 3 hours
  4. Check for the presence of cyanosis
Show answer and explanation

Answer: A. Document this as a normal neonatal finding

Normally, a neonate's heart rate should be between 120 and 160 bpm shortly after birth. The nurse should document this as a normal neonatal finding. The doctor does not need to be notified. Assessing for cyanosis is a routine assessment at birth, but with the neonate's heart rate at 142 bpm, cyanosis should be minimal and typically located in the hands and feet. Heart rate assessments are performed routinely according to facility protocol. For example, the heart rate is assessed soon after birth, every 15 minutes for 1 hour, every 30 minutes for 1 hour, and then every 4 hours.
