Test Bank NSG 210 Disaster Situations Questions & Answers and
Rationale
The nursing instructor is talking with the students about botulism. The
1.
instructor tells the students that when caring for a client with botulism, what
condition is most likely to cause death?
A) Diplopia
B) Dysphagia
C) Paralysis of respiratory muscles
D) Dysarthria

You are an emergency department nurse working triage during a disaster.
2.
Why should you tag a victim after assessment in a disaster situation?
A) To know the victim's name
B) The tag states the triage category of the victim.
C) Someone else does not duplicate the assessment.
D) Call for immediate hospitalization.
Ans: C
Feedback:
The tag is an indication that the victim has been assessed by a nurse. This
ensures that the nurse or another medical person does not spend time
assessing the same person twice.
The tag does not name the victim, state the triage category, or contain
instructions.

3.
that you should consider to assess a client's chance of survival in acute
radiation syndrome (ARS)?
A) Dosage of gamma radiation
B) Concentration of nerve gas
C) Mode of infection
D) Direct physical contact
Ans: A
Feedback:

Page 1

, person receives. ARS is not related to chemical (gas) or biologic (infection,
contact) disasters.

4.

Page 2

, Feedback:
There are essentially two types of disasters: (1) natural disasters such as
earthquakes, floods, and hurricanes; and (2) human disasters that may be
intentionally or unintentionally caused such as explosions, fires, and acts of
terrorism. Options A, B, and C are simply distractors.

You are a nurse caring for clients in the emergency department who have
5.
been admitted from the area surrounding a nuclear power plant. There had
been a small explosion at the plant and a small amount of radiation had
escaped. You know that this is what type of a disaster?
A) Natural
B) Explosive
C) Chemical
D) Radiologic
Ans: D
Feedback:
Radiologic disasters can occur in the following ways: explosion of a dirty
bomb, damage to or human error in a nuclear power plant facility, and
nuclear blast. The scenario does not describe a natural disaster or a chemical
disaster. Option B is only a distractor.

An ICU nurse is caring for a radiation victim who is being treated with
6.
Prussian blue. You know that Prussian blue works by doing what?
A) Prevents radioactive iodine from reaching the thyroid gland
B) Attaches to radioactive iodine and promotes its excretion
C) Traps cesium in the intestine to prevent its absorption
D) Prevents cesium from being trapped in the
small bowel Ans: C
Feedback:
Prussian blue is a dye used to treat internal contamination with ingested
radioactive cesium. Prussian blue promotes the excretion of cesium by
trapping it in the intestine and preventing its absorption. It is not given for
radioactive iodine contamination and does not prevent cesium from being
trapped in the small bowel.
