The nurse is orienting a new grad on a med/surg floor. Which of the following statements about post-op care would indicate a need for further teaching by the nurse?

True/False: DNA replication and protein synthesis are distinct cellular processes

A nurse is providing discharge teaching to a 66-year-old patient with COPD who has been prescribed ipratropium by metered-dose inhaler. The patient says, “I tried it once in the hospital, and my mouth felt really dry and it left a funny taste.” Which statement by the patient shows a correct understanding of how to manage this effect?    

A nurse is caring for a 19-year-old college student admitted with an acute asthma exacerbation. On arrival, the respiratory rate was 30 with audible wheezing. The patient received albuterol 2.5 mg by nebulizer, and the nurse returns 45 minutes later. The patient says, “My hands are shaking and my heart feels like it’s racing, but I can breathe so much better.” Current findings are respiratory rate 20, heart rate 110 and regular, blood pressure 122/74, SpO2 97% on room air, and faint end-expiratory wheezes in the upper lobes. The patient denies chest pain, rash, or lip swelling. Which action is most appropriate for the nurse to take?  

A nurse is completing a health history on a 58-year-old male client during a wellness visit. The client reports the following: he smokes one pack of cigarettes per day, his father died of a myocardial infarction at age 52, he works a sedentary desk job and rarely exercises, his BMI is 34, his LDL cholesterol is elevated, he is African American, and he was recently diagnosed with hypertension. Based on this history, which risk factors for cardiopulmonary disease should the nurse identify as MODIFIABLE?  Select all that apply.  

A nurse is assessing a client with a blood pressure of 172/96 mm Hg. The client’s hands and feet are cool and pale, with delayed capillary refill. Which interpretation of these findings should guide the nurse’s priority action?    

A nurse is assessing a 70-year-old client who has not had routine healthcare in about 10 years. The client has smoked for many years and says, “I’ve felt fine, so I never saw the point of going.” While auscultating the carotid arteries, the nurse hears a bruit over the right side of the neck. The provider orders a lipid panel. Which set of results best explains the nurse’s finding?  

A nurse is caring for a 58-year-old woman on day 1 of hospitalization for pneumonia. She says, “I can’t catch my breath, and I’m so tired.” Findings are respiratory rate 28, blood pressure 98/60, and an apical heart rate of 118 counted for one full minute. Her skin is pale, her fingertips are cold, and capillary refill is 4 seconds. She is sitting upright and using accessory muscles to breathe. A pulse oximeter on her right index finger displays an SpO2 of 86%, a weak waveform, and a pulse rate of 92. Which interpretation and nursing action is most appropriate?  

A nurse is caring for a 56-year-old client 6 hours after a total thyroidectomy. The client says, “It’s getting harder to breathe, and my throat feels tight.” The nurse hears a harsh, high-pitched sound during inspiration that is loudest over the neck. Findings are respiratory rate 26, heart rate 112, and SpO2 91% on room air. The neck appears visibly fuller than on the previous assessment, and the lung fields are clear on auscultation. Which pairing correctly identifies the most likely problem and the nurse’s immediate action?
