,
, When doing Pulmonary Function Tests (PFTs), the NP recalls:

A. Asthma is a form of restrictive lung disease

B. Forced expiration is the best indicator of obstructive airway disease

C. Forced expiration is the best indicator of restrictive airway disease

D. A value is considered abnormal if it is less than 50% of your predicted value Correct Answer: Forced
expiration is the best indicator of obstructive airway disease



Explanation: A. In PFT's, forced expiration is the best indicator of obstructive airway disease. Obstructive
disease make the lungs contain too much air and take longer to empty. Changes in lung volumes and
capacities are generally consistent with the pattern of impairment. With obstructive lung disease total
lung capacity, functional residual capacity and residual lung volume increase. With obstructive lung
diseases, these decrease.

B. See explanation for A.

C. A value is considered abnormal if it is less than 80% of your predicted value

D. Asthma is a type of obstructive lung disease

A child in the emergency department has point tenderness over the proximal tibia and an appropriate
history of trauma. The radiograph show a fracture through the growth plate that extends in to the
epiphysis and joint space. This type of fracture would be characterized as:



A. Salter - Harris Type I

B. Salter - Harris Type II

C. Salter - Harris Type III

D. Salter - Harris Type IV Explanation: C. Salter - Harris type III is a fracture through the growth
plate that extends into the epiphysis and into the joint space. They may require open reduction and
fixation.



A. Salter - Harris type I occur along the growth plate

B. Salter - Harris Type II fractures extend into the metaphysis only

D. Salter - Harris Type IV fractures go through both the metaphysis and epiphysis into the joint space.
Type V fractures result from compression of the growth plate

Which of the following is considered a risk factor for neonatal respiratory distress syndrome?

, A. Neonatal sepsis

B. Poorly controlled maternal diabetes

C. Maternal preeclampsia

D. Neural tube defects Explanation: B. Infants of diabetic mothers, especially those with poor control,
have delayed maturation of surfactant production and are at risk for neonatal respiratory distress
syndrome at any gestational age



A. Infants with neonatal sepsis or pneumonia have normal surfactant production and do not benefit
from surfactant replacement therapy

C. Maternal preeclampsia is associated with acceleration of lung maturation and surfactant production

D. Patients born full term with neural tube defects have normal lung maturation

Laboratory findings in the diagnosis of diabetic ketoacidosis include:



A. Ketones in urine

B. Hypoglycemia

C. Hypercarbia

D. Decreased BUN Explanation: C. Diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA) usually exhibits with some
combination of polyuria, polydipsia, fatigue, headache, nausea, emesis and abdominal pain. When DKA
occurs, ketones are formed in the blood and cleared in the urine.



A. Hyperglycemia is usually present, not hypoglycemia

B. Primary metabolic acidosis with secondary respiratory alkalosis is noted (decreased pH and
hypocarbia)

C. Dehydration results in an elevated BUN level. When DKA is present, the patient's total body
potassium is depleted from significant potassium loss in the osmotic diuresis. However, serum
potassium measurements at presentation may appear high, low or normal.

Which of the following best describes continuous renal replacement therapy (CCRT)

A. Blood from an artery is circulated to a hemofilter using only arterial pressure and not a blood pump

B. Blood is circulated by hydrostatic pressure through a semipermeable membrane

C. Blood is pumped through a double-lumen venous catheter to a hemofilter

D. A dialysate is used to increase clearance of uremic toxins C.
