Nursing Elites

1. It is not a legally binding document but nevertheless, Very important in caring for the patients.

• A. BON Resolution No. 220 Series of 2002
• B. Patient’s Bill of Rights
• C. Nurse’s Code of Ethics
• D. Philippine Nursing Act of 2002

Correct answer: B

Rationale: Nursing interventions should be grounded in a deep understanding of the physiological processes involved, ensuring that care provided is both effective and efficient.

2. A client has bilateral eye patches in place following an injury. When the client's food tray arrives, which of the following interventions should the nurse take to promote independence in eating?

• A. Assign an assistive personnel to feed the client.
• B. Explain to the client that their tray is here and guide their hands to it.
• C. Describe to the client the location of the food on the tray.
• D. Ask the client if they would prefer a liquid diet.

Correct answer: C

Rationale: When a client has bilateral eye patches, promoting independence in eating is crucial to maintain dignity and autonomy. Describing the location of the food on the tray enables the client to locate and feed themselves. Assigning assistive personnel to feed the client (Choice A) takes away their independence. Merely informing the client that the tray is here and guiding their hands to it (Choice B) does not empower the client to eat independently. Asking if the client prefers a liquid diet (Choice D) is not directly addressing the client's ability to independently eat the current meal.

3. A client is being taught by a nurse about adding more fiber to the diet. Which of the following foods has the highest fiber content?

• A. 1 cup cooked sweet potato
• B. 1 slice rye toast
• C. 1 cup raw watermelon
• D. 1 oz cashews

Correct answer: D

Rationale: The correct answer is D, 1 oz of cashews. Cashews have a higher fiber content compared to sweet potato, rye toast, and watermelon. While sweet potatoes and rye toast contain fiber, cashews have a higher concentration, making them a better choice for increasing fiber intake. Watermelon, on the other hand, is low in fiber compared to the other options provided.

4. Cancers that arise from epithelial tissues are known as:

• A. Leukemias
• B. Myelomas
• C. Carcinomas
• D. Sarcomas

Correct answer: C

Rationale: The correct answer is C: Carcinomas. Carcinomas are cancers that originate from epithelial tissues, which are the tissues lining the surfaces of organs and structures in the body. Leukemias (choice A) are cancers of the blood-forming cells, not epithelial tissues. Myelomas (choice B) are cancers that develop in plasma cells in the bone marrow, not epithelial tissues. Sarcomas (choice D) are cancers that arise from connective tissues like bone, cartilage, or muscle, not epithelial tissues. Therefore, choices A, B, and D are incorrect in the context of cancers originating from epithelial tissues.

5. What is the main function of dietary fiber in managing cholesterol levels?

• A. To reduce absorption of dietary fats
• B. To increase cholesterol synthesis
• C. To enhance protein digestion
• D. To decrease cholesterol absorption

Correct answer: D

Rationale: Dietary fiber helps lower cholesterol levels by binding to bile acids and reducing cholesterol absorption.
