A 74-year-old obese man who has undergone open reduction and internal fixation of the right hip is 8 days postoperative. He has a history of arthritis and atrial fibrillation. He admits to right lower leg pain, described as "a cramp in my leg." An appropriate nursing action is to:

  1. Assess for pain with plantiflexion
  2. Assess for edema and heat of the right leg
  3. Instruct him to rub the cramp out of his leg
  4. Elevate right lower extremity with pillows propped under the knee

Answer(s): B

Explanation:

(A) Calf pain with dorsiflexion of the foot (Homans' sign) can be a sign of a deep venous thrombosis; however, it is not diagnostic of the condition. (B) Swelling and warmth along the affected vein are commonly observed clinical manifestations of a deep venous thrombosis as a result of inflammation of the vessel wall. (C) Rubbing or massaging of the affected leg is contraindicated because of the risk of the clot breaking loose and becoming an embolus. (D) A pillow behind the knee can be constricting and further impair blood flow.



A gravida 2 para 1 client is hospitalized with severe preeclampsia. While she receives magnesium sulfate
(MgSO4) therapy, the nurse knows it is safe to repeat the dosage if:

  1. Deep tendon reflexes are absent
  2. Urine output is 20 mL/hr
  3. MgSO4serum levels are>15 mg/dL
  4. Respirations are>16 breaths/min

Answer(s): D

Explanation:

(A) MgSO4is a central nervous system depressant. Loss of reflexes is often the first sign of developing toxicity. (B) Urinary output at <25 mL/hr or 100 mL in 4 hours may result in the accumulation of toxic levels of magnesium. (C) The therapeutic serum range for MgSO4is 6­8 mg/dL. Higher levels indicate toxicity. (D) Respirations of>16 breaths/min indicate that toxic levels of magnesium have not been reached. Medication administration would be safe.

Assessment of severe depression in a client reveals feelings of hopelessness, worthlessness; inability to feel pleasure; sleep, psychomotor, and nutritional alterations; delusional thinking; negative view of self; and feelings of abandonment. These clinical features of the client's depression alert the nurse to prioritize problems and care by addressing which of the following problems first:

  1. Nutritional status
  2. Impaired thinking
  3. Possible harm to self
  4. Rest and activity impairment

Answer(s): C

Explanation:

(A) Anorexia and weight loss are problems that need attention in severe depression, but they can be addressed secondary to immediate concerns. (B) Impaired thinking and confusion are problems in severe depression that are addressed with administration of medication, through group and individual psychotherapy, and through activity therapy as motivation and interest increase. (C) Possible harm to self as with suicidal ideation; a suicide plan, means to execute plan; and/or overt gestures or an attempt must be addressed as an immediate concern and safety measures implemented appropriate to the risk of suicide. (D) Rest and activity impairment may take time and further assessment to determine client's sleep pattern and amount of psychomotor retardation with the more immediate concern for safety present.

just passed the az-500 exam this last friday. most of the questions in this exam dumps are in the exam. i bought the full version and noticed some of the questions which were answered wrong in the free version are all corrected in the full version. this site is good but i wish the had it in an interactive version like a test engine simulator.

i hate comptia with all my heart with their "choose the best" answer format as an argument could be made on every question. they say "the "comptia way", lmao no this right here boys is the comptia way 100%. take it from someone whos failed this exam twice but can configure an entire complex network that these are the questions that are on the test 100% no questions asked. the pbqs are dead on! nice work

answer to 134 is casb. while data loss prevention is the goal, in order to implement dlp in cloud applications you need to deploy a casb.
