Question Solution

Correct Answer : A,C,D,E

A. Communication signs for airborne precautions are necessary to inform staff and visitors about the required precautions for TB, which is spread via airborne transmission.  

 

B. A surgical mask is not adequate for TB; instead, an N95 respirator is required to filter out the airborne particles effectively.  

 

C. The N95 respirator, gown, gloves, and eyewear are essential personal protective equipment for caring for a patient with tuberculosis. The N95 respirator specifically protects against inhaling infectious particles.  

 

D. Negative-pressure airflow in the room is critical for tuberculosis patients to prevent airborne contaminants from spreading to other areas of the facility.  

 

E. A private room is required to isolate the patient and reduce the risk of transmission to other patients and staff.  

 

F. A communication sign for droplet precautions is not applicable as tuberculosis is primarily transmitted via airborne routes, not droplet transmission.

Correct Answer is A

Explanation

A. Blood flow starts from the right atrium, moves into the right ventricle, then to the lungs, where it is oxygenated and returns to the left atrium, and then flows into the left ventricle before being pumped into the aorta.

B. This sequence incorrectly places the left atrium before the right ventricle, which is not the correct flow of blood.

C. This sequence starts incorrectly with the right ventricle, skipping the left atrium entirely after blood is oxygenated.

D. This option also incorrectly starts with the right ventricle and does not include the proper sequence of blood flow.

Correct Answer is A

Explanation

A. This observation indicates proper body alignment as the arms hanging comfortably at the sides suggest relaxation and good posture.

B. The edge of the seat should not be in contact with the popliteal space; there should be a small gap to prevent pressure and improve circulation.

C. While the feet should be supported on the floor, they should be flat rather than flexed at the ankles for optimal alignment.

D. The body weight should be distributed between the buttocks and thighs, not just on the buttocks, to promote comfort and good posture.
