Correct Answer: A

Rationale: The correct answer is A: Iloilo Mission Hospital School of Nursing. This nursing school holds the distinction of being the earliest in the Philippines. St. Paul's Hospital School of Nursing, University of Sto. Tomas College of Nursing, and Manila Central University are not the oldest nursing schools in the country, making them incorrect choices.

Correct Answer: C

Rationale: The correct answer is C: case manager. A case manager in healthcare coordinates care, monitors outcomes, and ensures quality and cost-effectiveness. In this job description, the nurse is mainly focused on coordinating care, recommending treatment plans, monitoring outcomes, and maintaining communication among all involved, which aligns with the responsibilities of a case manager. Choices A, B, and D are incorrect because the job description does not primarily involve general management, research, or health promotion specialization.

Correct Answer: C

Rationale: Natural family planning relies on tracking menstrual cycles to determine fertile days for avoiding or achieving pregnancy. It may not be suitable for women with extremely irregular menstrual periods as it can be challenging to predict fertile days accurately. Oral contraceptives (A), diaphragms (B), and vaginal contraceptives (D) do not rely on regular menstrual cycles for their effectiveness, making them more suitable options for women with irregular periods.

Correct Answer: A

Rationale: The correct answer is A: Insufficient oxygenation of the cardiac muscle. Myocardial infarction pain is primarily caused by inadequate oxygen reaching the heart muscle, leading to ischemia and tissue damage. Choices B, C, and D are incorrect because circulatory overload, left ventricular overload, and electrolyte imbalance are not the primary causes of chest pain in myocardial infarction. Circulatory overload may lead to other symptoms like edema, left ventricular overload can result in heart failure symptoms, and electrolyte imbalance may present with various manifestations, but none of these directly cause the characteristic chest pain associated with an MI.

Correct Answer: B

Rationale: The correct answer is B, Hepatitis B. The Hepatitis B vaccine is crucial for pregnant women to prevent transmission of the virus to the baby during childbirth. Option A, MMR (Measles, Mumps, Rubella) vaccine, is not indicated during pregnancy. Option C, Human papillomavirus vaccine, is recommended for prevention of HPV infections but is not specifically indicated during pregnancy. Option D, Pneumococcal vaccine, is important for certain populations but is not the priority vaccine for a pregnant woman in this scenario.
