Adult Health Nursing First Chapter Quizlet

Correct Answer: A

Rationale: Immunity that the baby gets from the immune mother through breastfeeding is considered passive natural immunity. This is because the baby receives pre-formed antibodies from the mother's breast milk, providing temporary protection until the baby's own immune system is fully developed. This type of immunity is passive since the baby does not produce its antibodies, and it is considered natural because it happens through a natural process of breastfeeding.

Correct Answer: D

Rationale: Multiple myeloma is a plasma cell neoplasm characterized by the presence of abnormal monoclonal plasma cells in the bone marrow, which produce a monoclonal spike on serum protein electrophoresis. The clinical presentation of weakness, bone pain, and recurrent infections is typical of multiple myeloma. Anemia can result from bone marrow infiltration by the abnormal plasma cells, hypercalcemia is due to bone destruction and release of calcium, renal insufficiency can result from hypercalcemia and protein deposition in the kidneys, and the monoclonal spike in serum protein electrophoresis indicates the presence of a monoclonal protein. Waldenström macroglobulinemia, Hodgkin lymphoma, and chronic lymphocytic leukemia do not typically present with the classic tetrad of findings seen in multiple myeloma.

Correct Answer: A

Rationale: The priority nursing intervention for a woman in active labor diagnosed with postpartum hemorrhage (PPH) due to uterine atony is to massage the uterus to promote contraction. Uterine massage helps to stimulate uterine muscle tone and contraction, which can help control bleeding by reducing the size of blood vessels and promoting hemostasis. It is important to address the uterine atony promptly to prevent further blood loss and stabilize the patient's condition. Other interventions such as blood transfusion, administering antibiotics, and elevating the mother's legs can be considered based on the patient's response to the initial intervention of uterine massage.

Correct Answer: B

Rationale: In a professional setting like a classroom or a meeting, it is important for the CI (chief instructor) to set the atmosphere by welcoming everyone and discussing the objectives of the ward class. By discussing the objectives, the CI can provide a clear direction for the session and ensure that everyone is on the same page in terms of what needs to be accomplished. This not only helps focus the participants but also creates a sense of purpose and organization, setting a positive tone for the rest of the interaction. Showing a picture of the breast or giving an anecdote about an old man may not be appropriate or relevant in this context. Going ahead with the first part of the lecture without any welcoming or setting the atmosphere may make the participants feel rushed or disconnected from the session's purpose.

Correct Answer: B

Rationale: In the given situation, the nursing diagnosis that is NOT RELEVANT to sexual health is option B, Health-seeking behaviors related to reproductive functioning. This diagnosis focuses on the patient's proactive approach to seeking healthcare services related to reproductive health matters. However, in the situation presented of a pregnant patient with sickle cell anemia experiencing fever, painful swelling, and in labor pain, the immediate priority lies in addressing the health issues related to sickle cell disease and the current pregnancy. Sexual health is not the primary concern in this scenario compared to managing the complications of sickle cell anemia during pregnancy. Therefore, the diagnosis related to health-seeking behaviors related to reproductive functioning is not as pertinent in this specific case.
