ATI RN Custom Exams Set 3
1. What is the combat health support system in the field designed to do?
- A. Provide evacuation to the far rear for treatment and delay return to duty
- B. Project, sustain, and protect the health of the soldier in war and operations other than war
- C. Provide rearward evacuation and reassignment
- D. Provide far rear area care and delayed return to duty
Correct answer: B
Rationale: The correct answer is B. The combat health support system in the field is designed to project, sustain, and protect the health of soldiers in both war and operations other than war. Choice A is incorrect because the system is not primarily focused on providing evacuation to the far rear for treatment, but rather on overall health support. Choice C is incorrect as it only mentions rearward evacuation and reassignment, which is a limited scope compared to the comprehensive support provided by the system. Choice D is incorrect as it narrowly focuses on far rear area care and delayed return to duty, missing the broader aspects of health support and protection.
2. A nurse is planning care for a client who has a history of falls. Which of the following actions should the nurse include in the plan of care?
- A. Keep all four side rails up.
- B. Ensure the client's bed is in the lowest position.
- C. Use nonskid footwear while ambulating.
- D. Place a bedside commode close to the client's bed.
Correct answer: C
Rationale: The correct answer is C: 'Use nonskid footwear while ambulating.' This action is crucial in preventing falls in clients with a history of falls as it provides better traction and stability while walking. Choice A, 'Keep all four side rails up,' is not recommended as it can lead to client restraint and is not a fall prevention strategy. Choice B, 'Ensure the client's bed is in the lowest position,' is important for preventing injuries from falls out of bed but does not directly address fall prevention during ambulation. Choice D, 'Place a bedside commode close to the client's bed,' is a good practice for toileting safety but does not specifically address preventing falls while walking.
3. A nurse is caring for a client who is postoperative and is exhibiting signs of hemorrhagic shock. The nurse notifies the surgeon, who tells the nurse to continue to measure the client's vital signs every 15 min and to report back in 1 hour. Which of the following actions should the nurse take next?
- A. Document the surgeon's instructions in the client's medical record.
- B. Complete an incident report.
- C. Consult the charge nurse.
- D. Notify the nursing manager.
Correct answer: D
Rationale: In this scenario, the nurse should notify the nursing manager next. The surgeon's instructions are related to the client's condition, and it is crucial to inform the nursing manager about the situation. Option A is incorrect because documenting the surgeon's instructions in the medical record is not the immediate next step. Option B is also incorrect as completing an incident report is not warranted in this situation. Option C is not the best choice as consulting the charge nurse may cause a delay in escalating the situation to higher management, which is necessary in cases of emergency like hemorrhagic shock.
4. All of the following are characteristics of the Patient Centered Medical Home (PCMH) except:
- A. Comprehensive in scope of care
- B. Guarantees safety at home
- C. Patient needs come first
- D. Providers work together
Correct answer: B
Rationale: The Patient Centered Medical Home (PCMH) model is designed to provide comprehensive care, prioritize patient needs, and ensure that healthcare providers work together to coordinate care effectively. However, guaranteeing safety at home is not a specific characteristic of the PCMH model. Home safety is an important aspect of patient care but is not explicitly part of the PCMH model's core principles.
5. How would protein deficiency likely affect dental tissues?
- A. Decreased resistance to dental caries
- B. Increased tooth size
- C. Delayed tooth development
- D. Increased enamel mineralization
Correct answer: C
Rationale: Protein deficiency can lead to delayed tooth development as the body may not have enough resources to form teeth properly. This delay can make the teeth more susceptible to dental issues due to incomplete formation. Choices A, B, and D are incorrect. Decreased resistance to dental caries is more related to factors like poor oral hygiene and sugary diets, increased tooth size is not a common effect of protein deficiency on dental tissues, and increased enamel mineralization is not typically associated with protein deficiency.
