MULTIPLECHOICE

1.Thestudentnurselearnsthatthemostimportantfunctionofinflammationandimmunityiswhichpurpose?
a.Destroyingbacteriabeforedamageoccurs
b.Preventinganyentryofforeignmaterial
c.Providingprotectionagainstinvadingorganisms
d.Regulatingtheprocessofself-tolerance

ANS:C
Thepurposeofinflammationandimmunityistoprovideprotectiontothebodyagainstinvadingorganisms,
whethertheyarebacterial,viral,protozoal,orfungal.Thesesystemseliminate,destroy,orneutralizethe
offendingagents.Thecellsoftheimmunesystemaretheonlycellsthatcandistinguishselffromnon-self.
Thisfunctionisgeneralizedandincorporatesdestroyingbacteria,preventingentryofforeigninvaders,and
regulatingself-tolerance.

c.Documentfindingsandcontinuetomonitor.

ANS:A NURSINGTB.COM
Becauseolderadultshavedecreasedimmunefunction,includingreducedneutrophilfunction,fevermaynot
bepresentduringanepisodeofinfection.Thenurseshouldassesstheclientforspecificsignsofinfection.
Documentationneedstooccur,butamorethoroughassessmentcomesfirst.Bloodculturesmayormaynotbe
neededdependingontheresultsoffurtherassessment.

andpeoplewhoareill.Prednisonedoesnotcontainacetaminophen.Allclientsshouldbetaughttotake
medicationsexactlyasprescribed.Ahigherriskforcancerisseenwithdrugsfromthecalcineurininhibitor
category,suchastacrolimus(Prograf).
