1. A nurse is assessing a patient's airway. Which of the following is the
most important action for the nurse to take?
A) Insert an oral airway
B) Assess for breath sounds
C) Inspect for signs of a patent airway
D) Position the patient in the left lateral position
Answer: C) Inspect for signs of a patent airway
Rationale: The first step in airway assessment is to ensure that it is clear
and patent. This includes looking for signs of obstruction such as foreign
objects or swelling. Other actions, such as inserting an airway or
auscultating breath sounds, are secondary if the airway is
compromised.


2. A patient who has a history of alcohol abuse is admitted with liver
failure. Which of the following laboratory findings is most likely to be
elevated in this patient?
A) Serum creatinine
B) Serum albumin
C) Serum ammonia
D) Serum calcium
Answer: C) Serum ammonia
Rationale: Ammonia is produced in the intestines during digestion of
proteins, and the liver normally detoxifies it. In liver failure, the liver
cannot process ammonia properly, leading to an accumulation of
ammonia in the blood.

, 3. A nurse is preparing to administer an intramuscular injection.
Which of the following is the best site for the nurse to use?
A) Dorsogluteal
B) Ventrogluteal
C) Deltoid
D) Vastus lateralis
Answer: B) Ventrogluteal
Rationale: The ventrogluteal site is the preferred site for intramuscular
injections because it is free of large nerves and blood vessels, and it has
a large muscle mass. The dorsogluteal site is less commonly used due to
the risk of hitting the sciatic nerve.


4. A nurse is caring for a patient with a wound that is healing by
secondary intention. Which of the following is an expected
characteristic of the wound?
A) The wound edges are well approximated
B) There is minimal granulation tissue formation
C) The wound requires debridement
D) The wound heals quickly with minimal scarring
Answer: C) The wound requires debridement
Rationale: A wound healing by secondary intention has tissue loss and
may require debridement. It heals slowly and results in more scarring
compared to primary intention. Granulation tissue will be visible as part
of the healing process.
