Nursing Elites

1. Maria’s statement “Bow down before me! I am the holy mother of Christ! I am the blessed Virgin Mary!” is an example of:

• A. Delusion of grandeur
• B. Visual Hallucination
• C. Religious delusion
• D. Auditory Hallcucination

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 woman who has been following a vegan diet may need ____ supplements.

• A. vitamin C and vitamin A
• B. vitamin D and vitamin B12
• C. vitamin E and K
• D. vitamin D and niacin

Correct answer: B

Rationale: The correct answer is B: vitamin D and vitamin B12. Vegans may need to supplement vitamin D and B12 as these nutrients are mainly found in animal products. While choices A, C, and D are essential vitamins, they are not typically lacking in a vegan diet. Vitamin C can be obtained from various plant sources, vitamin A can be derived from beta-carotene in plants, and vitamin E and K are also found in plant-based foods. Niacin, although important, can be sourced from plant-based sources and is not a common deficiency in vegan diets.

3. A nurse is instructing the mother of a toddler who has iron-deficiency anemia to increase iron in the child's diet in addition to the prescribed iron supplement. Which of the following foods should the nurse recommend?

• A. Skim milk
• B. Bananas
• C. Tuna fish
• D. Cucumbers

Correct answer: C

Rationale: Tuna fish is a good source of iron and would be beneficial for a toddler with iron-deficiency anemia. Skim milk, bananas, and cucumbers are not significant sources of iron and would not help in increasing the iron levels in the child's diet. Skim milk, in particular, can inhibit iron absorption due to its calcium content, which is important for the nurse to educate the mother about.

4. On the study “effects of effective nurse-patient communication in decreasing anxiety of post operative patients” What is the Independent variable?

• A. Effective Nurse-patient communication
• B. Communication
• C. Decreasing Anxiety
• D. Post operative patient

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.

5. A nurse is developing an education program for a community group about dietary intake of vitamins and minerals in the diet. The nurse should include which of the following foods as sources of vitamin C? (Select the food that does not apply.)

• A. Green pepper
• B. Orange
• C. Cabbage
• D. Milk

Correct answer: D

Rationale: The correct answer is E: Milk. Milk is not a significant source of vitamin C. Choices A, B, C, and D are all good sources of vitamin C. Green pepper, orange, cabbage, and strawberries contain vitamin C and can be included in the diet to meet the body's need for this essential vitamin. Milk, on the other hand, is not known for its vitamin C content, so it does not apply as a source of this particular vitamin.
