Self-management is an important principle in optimal management and prevention of exacerbation. In order for the patient to self-manage appropriately, which of the following is not required?
- A. Understanding of the pathophysiology of disease, nature of inflammation and bronchoconstriction and trigger avoidance
- B. Education on medication compliance, use of devices and correct inhalation technique, as well as when to increase dosage
- C. Assessment by multidisciplinary team to address additional health concerns
- D. Development of an action plan in knowledge on when to implement and when to seek assistance
Correct Answer: C
Rationale: Asthma self-rule needs know-how pathology, meds, triggers, action plans not a full team probe. That's extra, not must-have; core's patient-led. Nurses train this, a chronic solo skill.

- A. Endothelial cells have a high metabolic activity
- B. Endothelial cells cannot regulate the glucose uptake
- C. Endothelial cells have a low level of antioxidants
- D. All statements provided above are correct

As per Johnson and Chang (2014) which of the following is not a component of the Chronic Care Model?
- A. Person centred care
- B. Population health approach
- C. Community setting, collaborative across both primary and secondary care
- D. Reactive, symptom driven
Correct Answer: D

Reactive, symptom-driven care's old-school, clashing with this forward lean. Nurses ditch that lag, embracing prevention, a model shift for chronic mastery.
