Sample questions

Q1. The common ECG finding in anorexia nervosa is:

  1. ST elevation
  2. Sinus tachycardia
  3. Left bundle branch block
  4. Bradycardia
Show answer and explanation

Answer: D. Bradycardia

Anorexia – cardiac complications – Bradycardia (common on ECG), arrhythmias, hypotension and heart failure; cardiac problems occur in 87% of affected youth.

Q2. The arterial blood gases of a patient with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) deteriorate, and respiratory failure is impending. For which clinical indicator would the nurse assess first?

  1. Distended neck veins
  2. Mental confusion
  3. Cyanosis
  4. Bradycardia
Show answer and explanation

Answer: B. Mental confusion

Decreased oxygen to the vital centers in the brain results in restlessness and confusion. 1 This is a late sign of respiratory failure. 2 Tachycardia, not bradycardia, will occur as a compensatory mechanism to help increase oxygen to body cells. 4 This occurs with fluid volume excess (e.g., pulmonary edema).

Q3. When caring for a patient with an altered level of consciousness, the nurse is preparing to test cranial nerve VII. What assessment technique would the nurse use to elicit a response from cranial nerve VII?

  1. Note any hoarseness in the patients voice.
  2. Observe for facial movement symmetry, such as a smile
  3. Administer the whisper or watch-tick test
  4. Palpate trapezius muscle while patient shrugs should against resistance
Show answer and explanation

Answer: B. Observe for facial movement symmetry, such as a smile

Cranial nerve VII is the facial nerve. An appropriate assessment technique for this cranial nerve would include observing for symmetry while the patient performs facial movements: smiles, whistles, elevates eyebrows, and frowns. Palpating and noting strength of the trapezius muscle while the patient shrugs shoulders against resistance would be completed to assess cranial nerve XI (spinal accessory). Assessing cranial nerve VIII (acoustic) would involve using the whisper or watch-tick test to evaluate hearing. Noting any hoarseness in the patients voice would involve assessment of cranial nerve X (vagus).

Q4. A patient who is a single parent of three teenage children has metastatic breast cancer, and the doctor has recommended another high-dose chemotherapy. The patient's older adult parents live a 10-hour drive away and have only been able to visit twice since the initial diagnosis 14 months ago. The patient is concerned about their children's welfare during the treatment. Which potential problem would the nurse help the patient solve first?

  1. Making realistic decisions
  2. Finding support systems
  3. Arranging care for the patient's children
  4. Using denial as a primary coping mechanism
Show answer and explanation

Answer: B. Finding support systems

The nurse should first assist the patient in assessing their resources for coping with their emotional and practical needs and the needs of their family because usual coping strategies and support systems are often inadequate in especially stressful situations. The nurse may be concerned with the patient's use of denial, decision-making abilities, and ability to care for their children; however, helping the patient obtain support systems will be of more importance in this situation.

Q5. Which is a reversible cause of dementia-like symptoms?

  1. Alzheimer's disease
  2. Vitamin B12 deficiency
  3. Lewy body dementia
  4. Huntington disease
Show answer and explanation

Answer: B. Vitamin B12 deficiency

B12 deficiency, hypothyroidism and depression can cause reversible cognitive impairment.
