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. An adolescent client has bloodshot eyes, a voracious appetite, and dry mouth. Which drug abuse would the nurse most likely suspect?

• A. Marijuana
• B. Amphetamines
• C. Barbiturates
• D. Anxiolytics

Correct answer: A

Rationale: The symptoms described, including bloodshot eyes, a voracious appetite, and dry mouth, are consistent with marijuana use. Bloodshot eyes are a common side effect of marijuana due to its effect on blood vessels in the eyes. Marijuana also often causes an increase in appetite (known as 'the munchies') and can result in dry mouth. Amphetamines typically cause symptoms like increased alertness, energy, and decreased appetite. Barbiturates and anxiolytics would not typically cause bloodshot eyes, a voracious appetite, and dry mouth as described in the scenario. Therefore, the most likely drug abuse the nurse would suspect in this case is marijuana.

• A. Use squeeze bottles to pour liquids into the mouth
• B. Provide utensils that have modified handles
• C. Offer plates with food guards
• D. Provide soft foods

Correct answer: D

Rationale: Providing soft foods is crucial for patients with chewing difficulties to ensure they can consume adequate nutrition without discomfort.

• C. Excuse me but, you are not anymore a Virgin so you cannot be the Blessed Virgin Mary.

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.
