Correct Answer is A

Explanation

A. Osteoarthritis is primarily caused by the destruction of joint cartilage, which leads to pain, stiffness, and decreased mobility in the affected joints. This degenerative process is the hallmark of the condition.

B. Loss of bone mineral density is associated with osteoporosis, not osteoarthritis. While both conditions can cause joint pain, they have different underlying pathologies.

C. An infectious process in the synovial fluid would indicate septic arthritis, which is an acute and severe condition requiring different management.

D. A systemic inflammatory response is more characteristic of rheumatoid arthritis, an autoimmune condition, rather than osteoarthritis, which is a degenerative joint disease.

Correct Answer is ["21"]

Explanation

To calculate the flow rate in gtt/min, you can use the formula: (Volume in mL * Drop factor) / Time in minutes.

For 1 L of lactated Ringer's IV, which is 1000 mL, to be infused over 12 hours (720 minutes), with a drop factor of 15 gtt/mL, the calculation would be: (1000 mL * 15 gtt/mL) / 720 minutes = 15000 gtt / 720 minutes ≈ 20.83 gtt/min.

Therefore, the nurse should regulate the infusion to approximately 21 gtt/min.
