- Q1An individual is who lives at a high altitude may normally have an increased Hgb and RBC count becauseHypoxia caused by decreased atmospheric O2 stimulates erythropoiesisThe function of the spleen in removing old RBC is impaired at high altitudes.Impaired production of leukocytes and platelets leads to proportionally higher red cell count.High altitudes causes vascular fluid loss, leading to hemoconcentration120s
- Q2An anticoagulant such as warfarin (Coumadin) that interferes with prothrombin production will alter the clotting mechanism duringStimulation of factor activation complex.Platelet aggregationThe release of tissue thromboplastinActivation of thrombin120s
- Q3When reviewing laboratory results of an older patient with an infection, the nurse would expect to findDecreased erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR).Decreased platelet count.Increased hemoglobin and hematocrit levels. Minimal leukocytosis120s
- Q4In a severely anemic patient, the nurse would expect to findDyspnea and tachycardia.Dyspnea and tachycardia.ventricular dysrhythmia and wheezingcardiomegaly and pulmonary fibrosis120s
- Q5The nursing management of a patient in sickle cell crisis includes (Select all that apply) a. Monitoring CBC b. Optimal pain management and O2 therapy. c. Blood transfusions if required and iron chelation. d. Rest as needed and deep vein thrombosis prophylaxis. e. Administration of IV iron and diet high in iron content.A,BA,B,DA,B,D,EA,B,C,D120s
- Q6When caring for a patient with thrombocytopenia, the nurse instructs the patient toBe careful when shaving with a safety razorContinue with physical activities to stimulate thrombopoiesisAvoid aspirin because it may mask the fever that occurs with thrombocytopenia.Dab his or her nose instead of blowing.120s
- Q7DIC is a disorder in whichAn underlying disease depletes hemolytic factors in the blood, leading to diffuse thrombotic episodes and infarcts.The coagulation pathway is genetically altered, leading thrombus formation in all major blood vessels.A disease process stimulates coagulation processes with resultant thrombosis, as well as depletion of clotting factors, leading to diffuse clotting and hemorrhage.An inherited predisposition causes a deficiency of clotting factors that leads to overstimulation of coagulation processes in the vasculature.120s
- Q8A patient with multiple myeloma becomes confused and lethargic. The nurse would expect that these clinical manifestations may be explained by diagnostic results that indicateCNS myelomaHypercalcemiaHyperkalemiahyperuricemia120s
- Q9When reviewing the patient’s hematologic laboratory values after a splenectomy, the nurse would expect to findDecreased hemoglobinLeukopeniaIncreased platelet countRBC abnormalities120s

- Q11A nurse is caring for a client who is receiving warfarin for anticoagulation therapy. Which of the following laboratory test results indicates to the nurse that the client needs an increase in the dosage?INR 1.1aPTT 38 secondsD-dimer negativePT 22 seconds120s
- Q12A nurse is preparing to administer packed RBCs to a client who has a Hgb of 8 g/dL. Which of the following actions should the nurse plan to take during the 15 min of the transfusion?explain the transfusion procedure to the client.Assess for an acute hemolytic reactionObtain consent from the client for the transfusionObtain blood culture specimens to send to the lab.120s
