Nursing Elites

1. If a person could not make bile, what would happen?

• A. experience fatigue, as the body would not be able to make lipid carriers to deliver fat to body cells for energy
• B. have less cholesterol being made by the liver
• C. need to consume higher levels of fat
• D. be unable to absorb most lipids, and fat would be excreted in the feces

Correct answer: D

Rationale: The correct answer is D. Bile is essential for emulsifying fats in the small intestine, allowing them to be absorbed. Without bile, most fats would not be absorbed and would be excreted in the feces. Choices A, B, and C are incorrect because the primary role of bile is in the digestion and absorption of fats, rather than affecting lipid carriers, cholesterol production, or dietary fat consumption.

2. A client with celiac disease should avoid which of the following?

• A. Quinoa
• B. Barley
• C. Rice
• D. Oats

Correct answer: B

Rationale: The correct answer is B: Barley. Barley contains gluten, which is harmful to individuals with celiac disease. Gluten triggers an immune response in people with celiac disease, damaging the lining of the small intestine. Choices A, C, and D (Quinoa, Rice, and Oats) are gluten-free and safe for individuals with celiac disease to consume.

3. The recommended treatment modality in clients with obsessive-compulsive disorder is:

• A. Psychotherapy
• B. Behavior therapy
• C. Aversion therapy
• D. Psychoanalysis

Correct answer: B

Rationale: The recommended treatment modality for clients with obsessive-compulsive disorder is Behavior Therapy, not Psychoanalysis. Behavior therapy, specifically exposure and response prevention, is considered the first-line treatment for OCD. This therapy focuses on changing the patterns of behavior that contribute to the disorder. Psychotherapy, although beneficial in some cases, is not as effective as behavior therapy for OCD. Aversion therapy involves associating a stimulus with a negative outcome to reduce the frequency of a specific behavior, which is not the primary approach for OCD.

4. Commonly known as “shabu” is:

• A. Cannabis Sativa
• B. Lysergic acid diethylamide
• C. Methylenedioxy methamphetamine
• D. Methampetamine hydrochloride

Correct answer: C

Rationale: Effective nursing care involves comprehensive assessments that address all aspects of a patient's condition, ensuring that interventions are appropriately targeted and outcomes are optimized.

5. After a few hours in the Emergency Room, Mr. Dizon is admitted to the ward with an order of hourly monitoring of blood pressure. The nurse finds that the cuff is too narrow and this will cause the blood pressure reading to be:

• A. inconsistent
• B. low systolic and high diastolic
• C. higher than what the reading should be
• D. lower than what the reading should be

Correct answer: C

Rationale: Effective nursing care involves comprehensive assessments that address all aspects of a patient's condition, ensuring that interventions are appropriately targeted and outcomes are optimized.
