b. decreased urine output
c. increased serum osmolality
d. increased serum BUN

The nurse identifies the patient with which electrolyte abnormality as having the greatest

excess? Select all that apply - Answer-a. hypertension

What is the Initial symptoms the body experiences when under stres - Answer-is the
"fight-or-flight" response

Stimulation of the sympathetic nervous systems resulting - Answer-in the release of
catecholamines and cortisol is known as the fight-or flight response

Physiological reaction with "fight or flight" response - Answer-•Dilated pupils
•Increased heart rate
•Increased blood pressure
•Increased respiratory rate

•General adaptation syndrome - protective stress response includes three stages: -
Answer-•Alarm stage - fight-or flight response

•Resistance stage

,•Exhaustion stage

Resistance stage - Answer-•cortisol levels and sympathetic nervous system return to
normal

Exhaustion stage - Answer-body becomes depleted, and damage may appear

Potential complications that can occur because of chronic stress - Answer-potential
complications hypertension, hyperglycemia, depression

Intact skin - Answer-first line of defense against disease

Neutrophils - Answer-first to aid in killing bacteria to prevent infection

Elevated with bacteria infections

Inflammatory Process - Answer-second line of defense that occurs due to tissue
damage, such as a break in the skin that introduces microorganisms

what is the common cause of bacterial skin infections - Answer-Staphylococcus

Fever - Answer-•is a clinical manifestation of a systemic effect from an inflammatory
response
•Indicates an alteration on homeostatic control mechanisms

Sepsis - Answer-•is a severe inflammatory response to a pathogen

Second line of defense - Answer-•- when those barriers are breached, second line of
defense, the inflammatory response, is initiated to prevent and/or limit infection, clean
out the debris of dead cells, and initiate tissue healing

adaptive immune provide - Answer-Third line of defense

Third line of defense - Answer-•occurs by natural exposure: infection, transfer of
maternal antibodies; or artificial exposure: vaccinations; or infusion of immune serum
globulin

Infection - Answer-a person who recovers from a first case of measles is immune to
further infection

Types of Acquired Immunity - Answer-•Two types - active and passive

Natural active - Answer-•pathogens enter the body and cause illness; antibodies form
•E.g., a person who recovers from a first case of measles is immune to further infection

Artificial active - Answer-•vaccine is administered; no illness results, but antibodies form
•E.g., polio vaccine to prevent poliomyelitis, flu vaccine during the flu season

Natural passive - Answer-•antibodies are basses directly from mother to child to provide
temporary protection
•E.g., passage through placenta during pregnancy; newborn baby via breastmilk

Active passive - Answer-•- antibodies are administered to proved temporary protection
to minimize the severity of an infection
•E. g., Immunoglobulin injection to treat immunological diseases

Adaptive (Acquired) Immunity include what two major defensive approaches - Answer-
•cellular and humoral immunity
