Nursing Elites

1. This vaccine content is derived from RNA recombinants.

• A. Measles C. Hepatitis B vaccines
• B. Tetanus toxoids D. DPT
• C.
• D.

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. Which factor contributes to the development of bone diseases in patients with Chronic Kidney Disease (CKD) due to retention?

• A. Iron
• B. Sodium
• C. Potassium
• D. Phosphorus

Correct answer: D

Rationale: The correct answer is phosphorus. Retention of phosphorus in patients with Chronic Kidney Disease (CKD) contributes to the development of bone disorders, including osteodystrophy, because it disrupts the balance of calcium and phosphorus in the body. This imbalance leads to a variety of bone diseases. The other options - iron, sodium, and potassium - while important in the overall metabolic function, are not directly linked to the development of bone diseases in CKD patients due to retention.

3. A nurse is teaching a client who needs to increase their daily fluid intake. Which of the following foods has the highest percentage of water by weight?

• A. Yogurt
• B. Milk
• C. Lettuce
• D. Honey

Correct answer: C

Rationale: The correct answer is Lettuce. Lettuce has the highest percentage of water by weight among the options provided, making it an excellent choice to increase fluid intake. Yogurt and milk have some water content but are not as high in water percentage as lettuce. Honey, on the other hand, contains very little water and is not a good choice for increasing fluid intake.

4. What is a disadvantage of using a food frequency questionnaire?

• A. It does not influence the food choices of the consumer
• B. It is not affected by seasonal changes in the diet
• C. It is not effective for monitoring short-term changes in food intake
• D. It does not take too long to obtain the results

Correct answer: C

Rationale: Option C is correct because a food frequency questionnaire is designed to capture a person's typical food intake over an extended period and is not suitable for monitoring short-term changes in diet. The questionnaire's purpose is to provide insights into long-term dietary patterns rather than immediate changes. Option A is incorrect as the questionnaire does not influence food choices; it merely records them. Option B is also incorrect because, while seasonal changes can impact food availability and thereby influence diet, the questionnaire itself is not affected by these changes. Lastly, option D is incorrect as the time to obtain results from a food frequency questionnaire would depend on the respondent's speed and accuracy rather than being intrinsically linked to the questionnaire.

5. A client with iron deficiency anemia is being taught about dietary recommendations by a nurse. Which of the following dietary recommendations should the nurse include as a food that enhances iron absorption when consumed with nonheme iron?

• A. Tomato juice
• B. Tea
• C. Milk
• D. Dried Beans

Correct answer: A

Rationale: Tomato juice is the correct answer because it contains vitamin C, which enhances the absorption of nonheme iron. Vitamin C helps convert nonheme iron into a form that is easier for the body to absorb. Tea and milk should be avoided when consuming nonheme iron as they can inhibit iron absorption. Dried beans, although a good source of iron, do not enhance iron absorption when consumed with nonheme iron.
