Increase in diastolic blood pressure18. The FNP is examining the lymphatic system of a healthy three year old child. Which finding should the FNP expect?a. Excessive swelling of the lymph nodesb. The presence of palpable lymph nodesc. No nodes palpable because of the immature immune system of a childd. Fewer numbers and a decrease in size of lymph nodes compared with those of an adult19. The FNP is preparing to perform modified Allen test. Which is an appropriate reason for this test?a. To measure the rate of lymphatic drainageb. To evaluate the adequacy of capillary patency before venous blood drawsc. To evaluate the adequacy of collateral circulation before cannulating the radial arteryd. To evaluate the venous refill rate that occurs after the ulnar and radial arteries are temporarily occluded20. A 25-year-old woman is in her fifth month of pregnancy has a blood pressure of 100/70 mmHg. In reviewing her previous exam the FNP notes that her blood pressure in her second month was 124/80 mmHg. When evaluating this change what does the FNP know to be true?a. This is the result of peripheral vasodilatation and is an expected change.b. Because of increased cardiac output, the blood pressure should be higher this time.c. This is not an expected finding because it would mean a decreased cardiac output.d. This would mean a decrease in circulating blood volume, which is dangerous for the fetus21. Findings from an assessment of a 70-year-old patient with swelling in his ankles include jugular venous pusations, 5 cm above the sternal angle when the head of his bed is eleveted 45°.

Contraction of the atria at the beginning of diastole can be felt as a palpitation.c. Atrial kick is the pressure exerted against the atria as the ventricles contract during systole.d. The atria contract toward the end of diastole and push the remaining blood into the ventricles.24. A 45-year-old man is in the clinic for a routine physical.
