Answer to Question 1

Ans: B, C, D
Feedback:
There are several strategies that a graduate can use to prepare for retaking the NCLEX-PN. These include seeking help on interpreting the CPR, taking mock examinations, and focusing on identified areas of weakness. Gaining more bedside experience and asking nurses why they passed are not strategies that are likely to increase the student's chances of success.

Answer to Question 2

Ans: A
Feedback:
A course that is offered by recordings, with no instructor present, is not likely to be a worthwhile exercise. Involvement by LP/VNs, testimonials by satisfied participants, and the integration of the Category of Client Needs are all potential merits of a review course.

The use of salicylates dates back 2,500 years to Hippocrates’s recommendation of willow bark (from which a salicylate is derived) as an aid to the pains of childbirth. However, overdosage of salicylates can harm body fluids, electrolytes, the CNS, the GI tract, the ears, the lungs, the blood, the liver, and the kidneys and cause coma or death.

Hypertension is a silent killer because it is deadly and has no significant early symptoms. The danger from hypertension is the extra load on the heart, which can lead to hypertensive heart disease and kidney damage. This occurs without any major symptoms until the high blood pressure becomes extreme. Regular blood pressure checks are an important method of catching hypertension before it can kill you.

When Gabriel Fahrenheit invented the first mercury thermometer, he called "zero degrees" the lowest temperature he was able to attain with a mixture of ice and salt.

People who have myopia, or nearsightedness, are not able to see objects at a distance but only up close. It occurs when the cornea is either curved too steeply, the eye is too long, or both. This condition is progressive and worsens with time. More than 100 million people in the United States are nearsighted, but only 20% of those are born with the condition. Diet, eye exercise, drug therapy, and corrective lenses can all help manage nearsightedness.
