Week 3 kahoot questions

Introduction

Question: Which of the following are pain receptors?
- Options: Nociceptive, Afferent Fibers, Basal Ganglia, Efferent Fibers.
Correct Answer: Nociceptive.
- Nociceptive fibers are pain receptors, while afferent and efferent fibers relate to nerve signal direction (incoming and outgoing).
- Basal ganglia is a structure in the brain unrelated to pain receptors.

Question: How does pain affect a patient's vital signs?
- Options include Tachycardia, Hypertension, Bradycardia, Orthostatic Hypotension.
Correct Answer: Tachycardia.
- Pain stimulates the sympathetic nervous system, increasing heart rate (tachycardia) and blood pressure.
- Hypertension could be a potential response, but not directly called upon by sympathetic stimulus like tachycardia.
- Bradycardia (heart rate < 60 bpm) does not apply in this context.
- Orthostatic hypotension relates to blood pressure changes due to position and is not a direct response to pain.

Question: Which is not considered a pain behavior?
- Options include Anxiety, Tachycardia, Guarding, Hypotension.
Correct Answer: Hypotension.
- While pain can trigger anxiety and tachycardic responses, hypotension is not associated.
- Needs careful reading to select answers based on negation of pain behaviors rather than behaviors.

Question: What type of pain is perceived at a site distant from its source?
Correct Answer: Referred pain.
- Understanding of somatic pain (localized), acute pain (recent onset), and phantom pain (pain felt in an absent limb) were also discussed.

Question: Which of the following does not describe nerve pain?
- Options: Frank pain, Neuralgia, Neuropathy, Phantom pain.
Correct Answer: Frank pain.
- Frank pain is classified as somatic pain, referring to organs or muscles.

Question: Which tool is for pain assessment for infants?
- Options: Numeric Rating Scale, Wong-Baker Faces, PAINAD.
Correct Answer: Wong-Baker Faces.
- Numeric scales are for older children or adults. PAINAD is for older patients with dementia.

Need for nurses to be aware of patients' values and beliefs to ensure effective cultural pain management.
Ability to communicate in the patient's language is beneficial.

Key Components:
- Appearance, Behavior, Cognitive function, Thought processes.
Blood pressure and visual acuity are not part of a mental status assessment.

Symptoms include slow speech, lack of eye contact, heavy appearance.
Question: Which of the following is not a depression symptom?
- Correct Answer: Hallucination.
- Hallucination is generally associated with schizophrenia, not typical depression.

Components include Mental Status, Cranial Nerve Assessment, Sensory/Motor System Assessment, and Reflex assessment.
Allergy history does not relate to neurological assessment.

Question: Which is not a risk factor for stroke?
- Correct Answer: Alcohol (in moderation).
- Key risk factors include age 55+, hypertension, and smoking.

Primary Assessment Focus: Breathing is critical due to potential paralysis from C2 injury.

Symptoms include headache, photophobia, and positive signs like neck stiffness when assessing.

Cranial nerves assessed for sensory and motor functions include the sense of smell, vision, eye movement, and facial movements.

Focus on specific tasks to assess sensory perception and motor strength.
- Includes functions like tasters, hearing tests, and the evaluation of eye movements.

Students encouraged to interact, ask questions, and participate in self-assessments.

Acknowledgment of student effort, offering a light interaction with rewards (fruit choices).
Reminder for upcoming discussions on effective study strategies.
