- A 44-year-old man has a long-standing history of
moderate persistent asthma that is normally well controlled by fluticasone with salmeterol (Advair®) via metered-dose inhaler, one puff twice a day, and the use of albuterol 1 to 2 times a week as needed for wheezing. Three days ago, he developed a sore throat, clear nasal discharge, body aches, and a dry cough.In the past 24 hours, he has had intermittent wheezing that necessitated the use of albuterol, two puffs every 3 hours, which produced partial relief. Your next most appropriate action is to
obtain a:
- chest radiograph.
- measurement of oxygen saturation (SaO2).
- spirometry measurement.
- sputum smear for white blood cells (WBCs). - Correct AnswerC
- Common causes of chronic renal failure include all
of the following except:
- type 2 diabetes.
- recurrent pyelonephritis.
- hypotension.
- polycystic kidney disease. - Correct AnswerC
- When assessing a 78-year-old man with suspected BPH,
the NP considers that:
- prostate size does not correlate well with severity of
- BPH affects less than 50% of men of this age.
- he is at increased risk for prostate cancer.
- limiting fluids is a helpful method of relieving severe
symptoms.

- low mean corpuscular volume (MCV), normal mean
- low MCV, low MCH
- low MCV, elevated MCH
- normal MCV, normal MCH - Correct AnswerB
anemia?
corpuscular hemoglobin (MCH)
- You consider prescribing insulin glargine (Toujeo®,
Lantus®) because of its:
- extended duration of action.
- rapid onset of action.
- ability to prevent diabetic end-organ damage. 3 / 4

occurs in:
- less than 30 minutes.
- approximately 1 hour.
- 1 to 2 hours.
- 3 to 4 hours. - Correct AnswerA
- One of the earliest laboratory markers in evolving
macrocytic or microcytic anemia is:
- an increase in RBC distribution width (RDW).
- a reduction in measurable hemoglobin.
- a low MCH level.
- an increased platelet count. - Correct AnswerA
- Which of the following medications can contribute to

- You examine Jane, a 24-year-old woman who has an acute
asthma flare following a 3-day history of upper respiratory tract symptoms (clear nasal discharge, dry cough, no fever). She has a history of moderate persistent asthma that is in good control and an acceptable peak expiratory flow (PEF). She is using budesonide (Pulmicort®) and albuterol as directed and continues to have difficulty with coughing and wheezing. At home, her PEF is 55% of personal best. In the office, her forced expiratory volume at 1 second (FEV1) is 65% of predicted. Her medication
regimen should be adjusted to include:
- theophylline.
- salmeterol (Serevent®).
- prednisone.
- montelukast (Singulair®). - Correct AnswerC
