A clinic nurse is planning to teach a group of clients about laryngeal cancer.

The nurse should include which of the following risk factors associated with the development of laryngeal cancer? Select all that apply.

Client uses chewing tobacco every day.

Client is an industrial-commercial painter.

Client is an ultrasound technician.

Client wears magnetic healing bracelets.

Client’s husband smokes cigarettes.

Answer and Explanation

Correct Answer : A,B,E

Choice A rationale
Using chewing tobacco every day is a significant risk factor for laryngeal cancer. Tobacco contains many carcinogens, which can damage the cells in the larynx and lead to cancer.
Choice B rationale
Being an industrial-commercial painter is associated with an increased risk of laryngeal cancer. This is likely due to exposure to certain chemicals and toxins that are used in paints and other materials.
Choice C rationale
Being an ultrasound technician is not typically associated with an increased risk of laryngeal cancer. Ultrasound technicians are not generally exposed to the types of toxins or risk factors that are associated with laryngeal cancer.
Choice D rationale
Wearing magnetic healing bracelets is not associated with an increased risk of laryngeal cancer. There is no scientific evidence to suggest that these bracelets have any effect on cancer risk.
Choice E rationale
Having a spouse who smokes cigarettes is a risk factor for laryngeal cancer. Secondhand smoke, also known as passive smoke, contains many of the same carcinogens as the smoke inhaled by smokers. Exposure to secondhand smoke can increase a person’s risk of developing laryngeal cancer.

Correct Answer is C

Explanation

Choice A rationale
A pH of 7.55, PaCO2 of 30 mm Hg, PaO2 of 80 mm Hg, and HCO3 of 24 mEq/L would indicate respiratory alkalosis, which is not typically associated with progressive COPD67.
Choice B rationale
A pH of 7.40, PaCO2 of 40 mm Hg, PaO2 of 94 mm Hg, and HCO3 of 22 mEq/L represent normal ABG values.
Choice C rationale
A pH of 7.30, PaCO2 of 60 mm Hg, PaO2 of 70 mm Hg, and HCO3 of 30 mEq/L are indicative of respiratory acidosis with metabolic compensation, which is commonly seen in patients with progressive COPD67.
Choice D rationale
A pH of 7.38, PaCO2 of 45 mm Hg, PaO2 of 88 mm Hg, and HCO3 of 26 mEq/L would indicate a slight respiratory acidosis, which is not typically associated with progressive COPD67.

A. Written competency exams B. Insence training C. Simulation-based mock codes D. Peer-to-peer feedback sessions

Correct Answer is C

Explanation

Choice A rationale
Written competency exams can assess theoretical knowledge and understanding of procedures, but they may not accurately reflect practical skills or performance under real-life conditions.
Choice B rationale
Insence training, while potentially beneficial for enhancing certain skills, may not be the most effective method for improving confidence and performance in response to a “code”. It lacks the realism and immediacy of a code situation.
Choice C rationale
Simulation-based mock codes provide a safe environment where staff can practice their skills, learn from their mistakes, and improve their performance without risk to patients. They can enhance confidence, competence, and performance in real code situations.
Choice D rationale
Peer-to-peer feedback sessions can provide valuable insights and foster a culture of continuous learning and improvement. However, they may not offer the same level of structured, targeted skill development and performance improvement as simulation-based mock codes.
