perfusion. Correct Answer-B
2. In an acute care setting, the nurse is assessing an unstable patient.

skin is warm
and dry. What does the ICU nurse recognize that that patient is probably
experiencing?
, A) Anaphylactic shock
B) Neurogenic shock
C) Septic shock
D) Hypovolemic shock Correct Answer-B
7. The intensive care nurse caring for a patient in shock is planning
assessments and
interventions related to the patients nutritional needs. What physiologic
process
contributes to these increased nutritional needs?
A) The use of albumin as an energy source by the body because of the
need for
increased adenosine triphosphate (ATP)
B) The loss of fluids due to decreased skin integrity and decreased
stomach acids due
to increased parasympathetic activity
C) The release of catecholamines that creates an increase in metabolic
rate and caloric
requirements
D) The increase in GI peristalsis during shock and the resulting diarrhea
Correct Answer-C
8. The nurse is trAnsferring a patient who is in the progressive stage of
