HESI A2 Vocabulary Quizlet

Correct Answer: A

Rationale: The correct answer is A: Break. A fracture refers to a break in a bone or a hard structure. This term accurately describes the physical separation or discontinuity of the material. Choice B, Brake, refers to stopping or slowing down, not relevant to the term fracture. Choice C, Cut, involves slicing through something, not necessarily causing a break. Choice D, Cure, means to heal or remedy a condition, which is unrelated to the concept of fracture. Therefore, A is the most fitting description for the term fracture.

Correct Answer: B

Rationale: The correct order is B: aide, aid, aid. 1. "The nursing aide": 'aide' refers to a person who assists, fitting the context of a nursing professional. 2. "put the Band-aid": 'Band-aid' is a brand of adhesive bandages, used to cover wounds. 3. "on the wound to aid the nurse": 'aid' means to help or assist, making sense in the context of helping the nurse. Other choices have incorrect word order or use of words not fitting the context.

Correct Answer: D

Rationale: The correct reflexive pronoun in this sentence is 'Oneself'. In this case, 'Oneself' is used to refer back to 'a person', making the sentence grammatically correct. 'Themselves' is incorrect because it is plural, 'Itself' does not match the singular subject, and 'Yourself' is incorrect as it refers to the second person. Therefore, 'Oneself' is the most suitable reflexive pronoun in this context.

Correct Answer: B

Rationale: The correct answer is B: unnecessary. The word 'unnecessary' is misspelled as 'unneccessary' in the sentence. The correct spelling should have only one 'c' instead of two. The other choices are spelled correctly - A: physician, C: explain, and D: procedure. 'Physician' refers to a medical doctor, 'explain' means to make something clear, and 'procedure' is a series of steps to be followed. Thus, the misspelling in choice B makes it the correct answer.

Correct Answer: A

Rationale: The correct answer is A: Be observed. In the sentence, "be observed" is not correctly used because the verb "observe" should be in the passive form "observed" to match the tense of the sentence. The correct form should be "Confidentiality should be observed at all times." The other choices (B, C, D) are all used appropriately in the sentence and do not have any grammatical errors.
