NURS 6501- ADVANCED
PATHOPHYSIOLOGY EXAM 3 WITH
100% CORRECT ANSWER (VERIFIED
ANSWERS) | LATEST UPDATE |
ALREADY GRADED A+


Absolute polycythemia

ANSWER: excessive red blood cell production; a physiologic response resulting

from increased erythropoietin secretion in response to chronic hypoxia or as a symptom

of polycythemia vera.



Absorption atelectasis

ANSWER: see Atelectasis.



Acid maltase deficiency (glycogen storage disease type II or Pompe disease)

ANSWER: an autosomal recessive metabolic disorder that damages muscle and

nerve cells throughout the body by an accumulation of glycogen in the lysosome

attributable to deficiency of the lysosomal acid a-glucosidase enzyme. The buildup of

glycogen causes progressive muscle weakness (myopathy) throughout the body and

affects various body tissues, particularly in the heart, skeletal muscles, liver, and

nervous system.

Acne

ANSWER: a common skin disease characterized by pimples on the face, chest,

and back. It occurs when the pores of the skin become clogged with oil, dead skin cells,

and bacteria.



Acne conglobata

ANSWER: severe cystic acne characterized by cystic lesions, abscesses,

communicating sinuses, and thickened, nodular scars; usually does not affect the face.



Acne rosacea

ANSWER: a chronic form of dermatitis of the face in which the middle portion of

the face appears red with small red lines caused by dilation of capillaries.



Acne vulgaris

ANSWER: an inflammatory eruption of the sebaceous follicles usually occurring

on the face, upper back, and chest that consists of blackheads, cysts, papules, and

pustules.



Noninflammatory acne

ANSWER: open comedones caused by the enlargement and dilation of a plug

resulting from the accumulation of oil and dead skin cells inside the hair follicle and by

closed comedones that form if the hair follicle pore remains closed; they appear as a

tiny, sometimes pink bump in the skin.

Acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS)

ANSWER: see Immune deficiency.



Acquired sideroblastic anemia

ANSWER: see Anemia.



ACTH deficiency

ANSWER: a condition characterized by decreased or absent production of

adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH) by the pituitary gland, resulting in a reduction in

the secretion of adrenal hormones and subsequent weight loss, lack of appetite,

weakness, nausea, vomiting, and low blood pressure.



Actinic keratosis

ANSWER: a condition in which a premalignant small, reddish, rough spot appears

on skin chronically exposed to the sun.



Acute chest syndrome

ANSWER: a syndrome occurring in association with sickle cell disease defined by

Acute colonic pseudo-obstruction (Ogilvie syndrome)

ANSWER: a massive dilation of the large bowel that occurs in critically ill patients

and immobilized older adults. It is characterized by significant dilation of the cecum and

absence of mechanical obstruction, and is related to excessive sympathetic motor input

or decreased parasympathetic motor input.



Acute confusional state (ACS)

ANSWER: a form of delirium caused by interference with the metabolic or other

biochemical processes essential for normal brain functioning. Symptoms may include

disturbances in cognition and levels of awareness, short-term memory deficit,

retrograde and anterograde amnesia, and disturbances in orientation, accompanied by

restlessness, apprehension, irritability, and apathy. The condition may be associated

with an acute physiologic state, delirium, toxic psychosis, or acute brain syndrome.
