Nursing Elites

1. What type of epithelium lines the urinary bladder?

• A. Transitional epithelium.
• B. Stratified epithelium.
• C. Glandular tissue.
• D. Endometrium.

Correct answer: A

Rationale: The correct answer is A: Transitional epithelium. The urinary bladder is lined with transitional epithelium, a specialized type of epithelial tissue that can stretch and recoil to accommodate changes in volume as the bladder fills and empties. Stratified epithelium (choice B) is not the main lining of the urinary bladder and is found in other areas like the skin. Glandular tissue (choice C) is responsible for producing secretions and is not typically found lining the urinary bladder. Endometrium (choice D) is the inner lining of the uterus and is not present in the urinary bladder.

2. The products of conception are retained in which of the following?

• A. Complete abortions
• B. Incomplete abortions
• C. Threatened abortion
• D. Mixed abortion

Correct answer: B

Rationale: In incomplete abortions, the products of conception are retained. In a complete abortion, all the products of conception are expelled from the uterus. Threatened abortion refers to a situation where there is vaginal bleeding but the cervix remains closed, and it does not necessarily involve retention of products of conception. Mixed abortion is not a recognized medical term related to retained products of conception.

3. What is the primary purpose of using pethidine?

• A. Relieve constriction ring.
• B. Relieve pain.
• C. Affect milk production.
• D. Induce labor.

Correct answer: B

Rationale: Pethidine is primarily used to relieve pain. It is an opioid analgesic commonly used for pain relief in various medical settings. Choices A, C, and D are incorrect as pethidine is not indicated for relieving constriction ring, affecting milk production, or inducing labor.

4. Which of the following is used to differentiate abdominal mass from pelvic mass on clinical examination?

• A. Size
• B. Site
• C. Margins
• D. Lower border

Correct answer: D

Rationale: The lower border is used to differentiate between an abdominal mass and a pelvic mass during clinical examination. The lower border of the mass provides important information about its location and origin. The size (Choice A) alone may not always clearly distinguish between abdominal and pelvic masses. The site (Choice B) and margins (Choice C) are also important factors, but they are not as specific in differentiating between abdominal and pelvic masses as the lower border.

5. What does Bidder's canal receive?

• A. Eggs
• B. Sperms
• C. Ammonia
• D. Oxygenated blood

Correct answer: B

Rationale: Bidder's canal is a part of the male reproductive system and receives sperm from the testes. The other choices are incorrect because Bidder's canal is not associated with receiving eggs, ammonia, or oxygenated blood.
