Quizlet Vocabulary HESI A2

1. Which sentence uses the correct form of the verb?

A. She has completed the project
B. She has completed the project
C. She has been completed the project
D. She has completed the project

Correct answer: B

Rationale: The correct answer is 'She has completed the project.' The sentence uses the present perfect tense with 'has completed,' which is the correct form of the verb. Choice A is incorrect due to the subject-verb agreement error ('She' requires 'has' instead of 'have'). Choice C is incorrect as it changes the meaning by using the passive voice 'has been completed' instead of the active voice. Choice D is incorrect as 'complete' should be 'completed' to match the present perfect tense.

2. Which sentence uses 'etc.' grammatically correct?

A. The list included diseases such as flu, measles, etc.
B. The list included flu, measles, etc., and other items.
C. The list included flu, measles, etc., diseases, and other items.
D. The list included, flu, etc., measles, diseases, and other items.

Correct answer: A

Rationale: The correct usage of 'etc.' should follow a comma when concluding a list. Option A correctly places 'etc.' at the end of a logical list with a comma before it, following grammatical rules. In option B, a comma should be placed after 'etc.' before introducing 'and other items.' Options C and D either misplace commas or incorrectly use 'etc.' within the list.

3. What does the quoted word 'impervious' mean in the following sentence?

A. Coping well
B. Enjoying
C. Not affected
D. Very sensitive

Correct answer: C

Rationale: The correct answer is C: 'Not affected.' In the context provided, 'impervious' means that the client is not affected by pain. Choices A, B, and D are incorrect because they do not accurately capture the meaning of 'impervious' in this context. 'Coping well' implies dealing with pain effectively, 'enjoying' does not reflect being unaffected by pain, and 'very sensitive' is the opposite of what 'impervious' means.

4. Choose the meaning of the word 'intramuscularly' in the following sentence: 'This vaccine must only be used intramuscularly and as a single-dose vial.'

A. Between muscles
B. Into muscles
C. Without muscles
D. On top of muscles

Correct answer: B

Rationale: The word 'intramuscularly' in the sentence indicates that the vaccine should be used by injection directly into the muscles. This means the correct meaning is 'into muscles,' making option B the most suitable choice. Choices A, C, and D are incorrect because 'intramuscularly' specifically refers to administering something inside the muscle, not between muscles, without muscles, or on top of muscles.

5. Which word is NOT CORRECTLY USED in the sentence? Confidentiality should be observed at all times, so the nurse should not discuss clients when the conversation can be overheard.

A. Be observed
B. By
C. Can be
D. Should not

Correct answer: A

Rationale: The correct answer is A. In the sentence, 'be observed' should be changed to 'should be observed' for proper grammar. 'Should be observed' is the correct way to indicate the necessity of maintaining confidentiality. Choice B, 'by,' is used correctly as a preposition. Choice C, 'can be,' is also used correctly in the sentence. Choice D, 'should not,' is correctly used to indicate what the nurse ought not to do.
