A manufacturer of television wall mounts would like to make a chart to monitor the percentage of defective mounting brackets due to problems with drilled holes. These holes may be defective because they are off-center, out of round, or not drilled. Five samples, each of size 100, have been taken from the production process and the discrepancies are as follows: Using this information and a 3 standard deviation chart, the upper control limit is: SamplePercent defective12.027.035.043.054.0

Which of the following represents the hierarchy of decisions concerning the capacity of operations ranging from long-term to short-term?

Quality of design

A cause-and-effect diagram

A 7-year-old patient presents to the pediatrician with their caregiver due to continued bed wetting despite non-pharmacological interventions with a bed wetting alarm.  The health care provider (HCP) prescribes the patient desmopressin (DDAVP).  What statement by the caregiver would confirm understanding of the medication?

Your patient has been diagnosed with open-angle glaucoma. You are completing medication education prior to the patient’s hospital discharge. What statement by the patient would warrant further education by the nurse? timolol (Timoptic, Betimol) ophthalmic drops latanoprost (Xalatan) ophthalmic drops  

Your patient is in the hospital for a severe dermatologic (skin) inflammation. The nursing assistance notifies you that the patient is upset that she attempted to obtain a point of care (POC) blood glucose level as ordered because the patient states that they do not have Diabetes Mellitus (DM). You as the nurse are aware that certain medications can cause hyperglycemia even if a patient is not diabetic.  Based on this information, what medication do you anticipate to see on the patient’s electronic Medication Administration Record (MAR)?

A patient arrives by Emergency Medical Services (EMS) due to a motor vehicle accident (MVA).  It is noted in the patient’s past medical history that they have been diagnosed with alcoholism.  The nurse notes that which order by the Health Care Provider is the priority?

You are rounding with the Health Care Provider (HCP) on your assigned patients.  You are discussing a diabetic patient that is currently on metformin (Glucophage).  You and the HCP note that the patient’s blood glucose levels are still not well controlled and you suggest to the HCP that an additional oral antidiabetic medication should be added to their antidiabetic regimen.  After reviewing the patient’s allergies, which medication allergy would prevent you from suggesting glimepiride (Amaryl)? Allergies sulfamethoxazole-trimethoprim (SMZ-TMP/Bactrim DS/Septra) doxycycline (Doxy) azithromycin (Zithromax) ciprofloxacin (Cipro)    

A patient presents to your clinic wanting information regarding emtricitabine/tenofovir (Truvada) for Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV) prevention.  What patient education should the nurse not provide?
