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. Why does Anita stand in front of the mirror while performing a Breast Self-Examination (BSE)?

• A. To check for unusual discharges from the breast
• B. To check for any obvious malignancy
• C. To observe the size and contour of the breast
• D. To check for thickness and lumps in the breast

Correct answer: C

Rationale: When performing a Breast Self-Examination (BSE), one of the reasons for standing in front of a mirror is to observe the size and contour of the breast (Choice C). This helps in identifying any visible changes or abnormalities such as dimpling, puckering, or changes in the size and shape of the breasts. While unusual discharges (Choice A) and thickness or lumps (Choice D) can be part of the changes a person might notice during a BSE, these are typically identified by palpation or by squeezing the nipple for discharge, not by just looking in the mirror. Choice B, checking for obvious malignancy, is too vague and not specific enough as malignancy is often not visible to the naked eye.

3. Sergio is brought to Emergency Room after the barbecue grill accident. Based on the assessment of the physician, Sergio sustained superficial partial thickness burns on his trunk, right upper extremities and right lower extremities. His wife asks what that means? Your most accurate response would be:

• A. Structures beneath the skin are damage
• B. Dermis is partially damaged
• C. Epidermis and dermis are both damaged
• D. Epidermis is damaged

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.

4. Given that orthodontic patients are frequently adolescents, their nutrition and oral self-care are often subpar. A dental hygienist may successfully motivate these noncompliant patients by emphasizing that optimal nutrition and oral self-care can enhance their appearance. Is this true or false?

• A. Both statements are true
• B. Both statements are false
• C. The first statement is true; the second is false
• D. The first statement is false; the second is true

Correct answer: A

Rationale: Both statements are indeed true. Many adolescents undergoing orthodontic treatment often neglect proper nutrition and oral hygiene, leading to subpar practices in these areas. It's common for them to be less attentive to these aspects due to various factors. A dental hygienist's role includes motivating these patients towards better self-care practices. One effective approach is by emphasizing that good nutrition and oral hygiene can significantly enhance their appearance. This approach is particularly effective for adolescents as they are often highly conscious about their looks. The other choices are incorrect because they suggest that one or both of the statements are false, which is not the case.

5. Which of the following statements are true about iron?

• A. The iron needs of vegans are 20% higher, and the needs of endurance athletes are 10% lower.
• B. It is one of the most common nutrient deficiencies in the world.
• C. Its absorption is increased by Vitamin C and during pregnancy.
• D. Its absorption is increased by tannic acid and calcium in milk.

Correct answer: C

Rationale: Choice C is correct because iron absorption is indeed increased by Vitamin C and during pregnancy. The other choices are incorrect. Choice A is wrong as there are no universally accepted percentages for the iron needs of vegans and endurance athletes. Choice B is inaccurate as iron deficiency is actually one of the most common nutritional deficiencies worldwide. Choice D is incorrect because tannic acid and calcium in milk actually inhibit iron absorption rather than increasing it.
