Nursing Elites

1. Which of the following actions are individuals with loss of smell NOT inclined to do?

• A. Use more spices in their food
• B. Eat less food
• C. Eat and drink more sweets
• D. Lose weight

Correct answer: D

Rationale: Individuals with a loss of smell are typically inclined to eat less because the enjoyment of food is diminished due to the lack of taste. However, they may compensate for this loss by consuming more sweets or using more spices. Therefore, they are less inclined to lose weight because of the increased consumption of sweets and spices, not because they eat less. Choice 'A' is incorrect because individuals with loss of smell often use more spices to enhance the taste of their food. Choice 'B' is incorrect as they may indeed eat less due to the diminished enjoyment of food. Choice 'C' is also incorrect as they tend to eat and drink more sweets to compensate for their loss of taste.

2. The correct temperature to store vaccines in a refrigerator is:

• A. between -4 deg C and +8 deg C
• B. between 2 deg C and +8 deg C
• C. between -8 deg C and 0 deg C
• D. between -8 deg C and +4 deg C

Correct answer: C

Rationale: Effective nursing care involves comprehensive assessments that address all aspects of a patient's condition, ensuring that interventions are appropriately targeted and outcomes are optimized.

3. The mechanism behind most CKD in patients without diabetes is mediated by:

• A. enzyme systems
• B. immune systems

Correct answer: B

Rationale: In non-diabetic patients, CKD is often mediated by immune system responses. Chronic inflammation triggered by immune system dysfunction can contribute to progressive kidney damage. Therefore, the correct answer is 'immune systems.' Choices A, C, and D are incorrect because CKD in non-diabetic patients is primarily associated with immune system abnormalities rather than enzyme, catabolic, or hormonal systems.
