Nokea
Regarding PID
- A. Trichomonas and Gardnerella are commonest organisms
- B. Associated with irregular menstruation
- C. Absence of fever and cervical excitation excludes diagnosis
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: PID chlamydia, gonorrhea lead, irregular menses tie, fever and motion can hide. Nurses link this chronic pelvic thread.

The nurse assesses a client and documents the following findings: edema 2+ bilateral ankles, brown pigmentation of lower extremity skin, aching pain of lower extremities when standing that resolves with elevation, and 2+ pedal pulses. What condition does the client likely have?
- A. Deep vein thrombosis
- B. Raynaud's disease
- C. Venous insufficiency
- D. Peripheral arterial disease
Correct Answer: C
Rationale: Venous insufficiency pools blood 2+ edema, brown pigmentation from hemosiderin, aching relieved by elevation, and decent pulses fit, as veins fail while arteries hold. DVT clots acutely, often unilateral. Raynaud's spasms, not pigments. PAD dims pulses, pains with walking. Nurses peg this chronic venous flop, suggesting hose or elevation, a textbook stasis tale.
In which ethnic group are people over 35 years advised to have their blood glucose levels checked because of the risk of type 2 diabetes?
- A. Creoles
- B. Hindu
- C. Moroccans
- D. Turks
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: Hindus over 35 South Asian risk rockets type 2, outpacing others' odds. Nurses screen this, a chronic ethnic flag.
Which statement is true regarding CT and LP in AIDS patients?
- A. they should all have a CT prior to LP
- B. if they have no focal neurology they do not need a CT
- C. if they have a GSC of 15 they do not need a CT
- D. all of the above are true
Correct Answer: D
Rationale: AIDS LP CT skips if no focal signs, full GCS, no fever push; all hold. Blanket CT's overkill nurses weigh risks, a chronic brain check dance dodging pressure flops.
Cortical stimulation:
- A. Occurs before resection of a tumour.
- B. Localizes areas involved with hearing.
- C. Occurs by indirect application of electrodes.
- D. Allows identification of Wernicke's area, which is involved in the comprehension of language.
Correct Answer: D
Rationale: Cortical stimulation in awake craniotomy maps eloquent brain areas before tumor resection to avoid functional loss. It's performed pre-resection to define safe boundaries, localizing motor, sensory, and language areas, including hearing-related regions in the temporal lobe. Electrodes are applied directly to the cortex, not indirectly, for precision. Wernicke's area, in the dominant temporal lobe, is critical for language comprehension, and stimulation identifies it by eliciting speech errors (e.g., paraphasia). Seizures can occur, managed with cold saline irrigation, not warm. The ability to pinpoint Wernicke's area is pivotal, as its preservation ensures postoperative language function, balancing oncologic goals with quality of life in eloquent cortex surgeries.
Triglycerides are absorbed in the intestines after a meal. Question: After being absorbed by intestinal cells, triglycerides are transported in the blood circulation by which lipid particle?
- A. Chylomicron particle
- B. HDL particle
- C. IDL particle
- D. VLDL particle
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: Post-meal triglycerides ride chylomicrons gut to blood, not HDL, IDL, or VLDL's liver gig. Nurses track this, a chronic fat ferry.
