Thank you.

Hello and good morning future nurses.
3
Welcome back to UWorld's Next Gen NCLEX review.
4
I'm Nurse Jasmine and today's topic is respiratory question drill.
5
So if you haven't joined us before this is what you can expect.
6
We're going to read the question together
7
and then you'll have 30 seconds to drop your answers in the comments
8
and don't be shy this is the best time to practice.
9
Remember this is just for your own learning this is not for a grade or punishment or anything.
10
And then we're going to review the rationales and then reminders.
11
Just share this session.
12
You know, the more the merrier.
13
Share it with all your nursing buddies.
14
Again, don't be shy to leave your comments or questions in the chat.
15
We have Nurse and Coley moderating our chat.
16
So if you have any questions, don't feel, don't be hesitant to ask.
17
And then again, follow us so you don't miss any content.
18
So starting with our question one, the nurse is assessing a client who has bacterial pneumonia,
19
which of the following findings would be a priority to follow up.
20
Then we have headache and fever, sore throat and nasal congestion, use of accessory muscles, and then we have purulent futum.
21
So what is concerning here?
22
What pushes you to check on this patient?
23
And then I see also we have our chat going on.
24
Again, don't be shy, don't be scared to put your answers.
25
You know, this is where we learn.
26
Sometimes we learn more from our mistakes.
27
Again, this is going to be a respiratory question drill.
28
Don't forget to like, share.
29
We have a goal on TikTok to reach 150,000 followers, and we're pretty close.
30
So if you guys don't mind helping us reach that goal, and let me know where everybody is joining us from.
31
Let us know.
32
Today we have a sunny day.
33
It's been raining here in Dallas, but today is hot.
34
All right.
35
So the correct answer for this one is going to be option number three, which a lot of you guys put.
36
So great job.
37
The use of accessory muscles is going to be a priority to follow up.
38
So bacterial pneumonia is an inflammatory reaction in the lungs.
39
So it's usually caused by an infection.
40
So this is going to result in the production of cellular debris and purulent secretions.
41
It also obstructs the alveoli and impairs gas exchange.
42
So when we see the use of accessory muscles, this means that the client is breathing with more than just their diaphragm.
43
So it's going to alert us that the client needs oxygen and we're going to focus on airway, breathing, and circulations.
44
And then we have the other options, one, two, and four.
45
These are all expected findings with bacterial pneumonia.
46
The one that we're going to be concerned about is the use of accessory muscles, which tells us that the client is working harder to breathe.
47
So we're going to assess this client first.
48
Great job.
49
All right, question number two.
50
The nurse is planning care for a client with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease or COPD.
51
Which of the following interventions should the nurse include in the client's plan of care?
52
And here we have a select all that apply.
53
So remember, we're going to have multiple correct answers.
54
And then we have option one, recommend that the client sleep in the supine position.
55
Option two, tell the client to eat two to three large meals each day.
56
Option three, encourage the client to receive the influenza vaccine annually.
57
Option four, demonstrate the cuff technique for the client.
58
And then we have option five, instruct the client to limit physical activity.
59
Let me know.
60
Let me know.
61
Let me see where you guys are all joining us from.
62
We got Portland, Oregon.
63
We got Maryland.
64
We got Pittsburgh.
65
We got Germany and India.
66
Hello.
67
We got Turkey, Nigeria, Manchester, Ghana.
68
How exciting.
69
We have Kansas City.
70
How crazy.
71
How cool, guys.
72
Thank you for joining us this morning.
73
And then another question that I'd like to ask you guys, has anybody passed their NCLEX recently or is anybody getting ready to test?
74
This is where we want to send you all the good luck or celebrate with you.
75
All right, we got more peeps.
76
We got South Africa, we got Mexico, we got Seattle, Australia, Arizona, DC.
77
Hello, hello, welcome.
78
Emily on TikTok has a year left, but it's going to be amazing, you know, take advantage of this year.
79
This is your last chance to be a student then you'll
80
enter the nursing world we have kenya virginia oh my gosh we got a two days
81
and then clicks in two days so we're gonna send prayers for sure someone's testing on the 23rd
82
nice oh we got people from republica dominicana welcome welcome 86
83
and yes you're going to pass
84
so we're sending you all the good vibes okay good job guys
85
so the correct answers for this ones are going to be three and four.
86
So we have the interventions that we should include in the client's plan of care.
87
So to start, what is COPD, right?
88
This is going to be a progressive and irreversible lower respiratory condition characterized by chronic inflammation.
89
We have airway remodeling, and then we also have reduced expiratory airflow.
90
So option three, we want to encourage the client to receive their flu vaccine because they're going to be immunocompromised, right?
91
They're at risk for significant complications.
92
If they do get the disease, if they contact the virus, they're going to be at higher risk for complications.
93
So we're going to encourage them to receive their vaccine annually.
94
And then option four, demonstrate the cough cough.
95
This is also true.
96
So clients with COPD, they develop ineffective coughing patterns due to that weakened muscles or their airway remodeling.
97
Remember, the airway is changing.
98
And this is prone to collapse under pressure.
99
So to help this, we're going to teach our clients how to huff-cuff through clear secutions.
100
So huff-cuff is composed of low-pressure coughs to loosen and help clear out those secretions.
101
So to do this, the client should sit upright, inhale deeply, and perform a forceful exhalation that makes a huff sound.
102
So that's going to help them clear their secretions.
103
And then the incorrect answers are 1, 2, and 5.
104
So instead of a supine position, we're going to recommend a semi-fowler position to help test expansion.
105
And the client will breathe easier rather than laying on their belly, which is the supine position.
106
And then we have option 2, large meals take a lot of energy.
107
You know, if you're short of breath and you're trying to eat a large meal, that's hard.
108
So imagine a client with COPD.
109
It's the same thing, you know.
110
So we're going to recommend smaller protein or smaller meals or increased protein snacks.
111
We want them to still take care of their nutrition.
112
We don't want their shortness of breath to interfere with their condition, with their nutrition.
113
And then we have option five, instruct the client to limit physical activity.
114
This is incorrect.
115
We want them to move to prevent pneumonia infection.
116
So great job, guys, on that one.
117
And then we have question number three the nurse has attended a staff education program about cystic fibrosis.
118
Which are the following should the nurse recognize as a complication of cystic fibrosis?
119
And again, select all that apply.
120
So we have one, malnutrition, osteoporosis, uterine fibroids, diabetes mellitus, and portal hypertension.
121
So which of these are complications?
122
let's see okay looking at your comments someone's about to schedule that's exciting
123
and we have more peeps joining us we have miami miami brazil canada nice welcome guys welcome
124
okay and i like that you guys are dropping your answers great job okay so the correct answers
125
i'm going to give you just a couple more to select select
126
that apply uh in the meantime i'm going to tell you guys
127
so you can find at uworldnursing.com
128
so you can see our live schedule we go live several
129
times a week uh tuesdays wednesdays thursdays fridays we have nurse Andrew, Nurse Nkoly, Nurse Samantha, myself.
130
So if you guys want to prepare and see what topics we're talking about ahead of time, go ahead and check out UWorldNursing.com.
131
And then my favorite part about UWorldNursing.com is the free trial so you can try 50 questions with rationales, which is what makes UWorld special.
132
And we have a NCLEX study schedule.
133
So we have examples from like one month to six months.
134
So if you guys are completely like, oh my gosh, where do I start?
135
Go ahead and visit UWorldNursing.com.
136
All right, guys, so this one is going to be all of them except option three.
137
So these are complications of cystic fibrosis.
138
So what is cystic fibrosis?
139
This is a genetic condition that causes thickening of the mucoid secretions, and this is due to impaired chloride and sodium channel regulation.
140
So this leads to exocrine gland dysfunction, obstruction of the digestive, reproductive,
141
and respiratory tracts, which can give us a lot of the information that we need for the complications.
142
So complications are going to include malnutrition due to malabsorption of nutrients in the GI tract.
143
So that's our option one.
144
Option two, osteoporosis.
145
This is a complication related to the malabsorption in clients with cystic fibrosis.
146
Think about the vitamins A, D, E, and K, inflammation and infection, medications, reduced physical activity.
147
So this is also a complication.
148
And then we have option four, diabetes mellitus, which is also a complication.
149
Pancreatic injury from the thick mucus secretions can lead to insufficient insulin production.
150
So that's another one.
151
And then we have option five, portal hypertension.
152
So it can lead to liver disease.
153
Cystic fibrosis can lead to liver disease or cirrhosis, which is the hardening of the liver.
154
So that hardening is going to cause pressure to increase in that portal vein, which can cause portal hypertension.
155
So the only incorrect one is uterine fibroids.
156
So specific fibrosis can cause infertility due to those thick cervical mucus and nutrition deficiencies.
157
So that's infertility, not uterine fibroids.
158
So great job on that one, everybody.
159
That was a little bit of a long one.
160
Our next question, the nurse is checking a client who has a chest tube attached to a closed chest drainage system.
161
Which of the following findings would be a priority for the nurse to follow up?
162
And then we have our options.
163
One, serosanguinous drainage in the collection chamber.
164
Option two, crepitus around the insertion site.
165
Tiling in the water seal chamber.
166
And then we have collection chamber attached to the head of the client's bed.
167
Let me see.
168
Let me look at your answers, guys.
169
Someone's scheduling their test later today.
170
That's exciting.
171
Yep, you guys answered.
172
Sisyphagbrosid affects the sodium chloride pump.
173
Great job.
174
Yeah, good job, good job.
175
You passed the NCLEX on Instagram.
176
Good job.
177
Congratulations.
178
You guys, your comments come so fast.
179
I got to read faster.
180
And yes, we have NCOLI on our chat.
181
Expected versus complication.
182
Yes, great job.
183
Thank you.
184
All right, so the answer for this one is going to be option four.
185
It's going to be a priority for us to follow up
186
if we see the collection chamber attached to the head of the bed.
187
So the chest tube, this is a closed system,
188
and it can be used to generate the negative pressure to re-expand a collapsed lung or it also helps drain pleural fluid.
189
So we do not want the collection chamber above the lungs because we need it to drain dependent drainage.
190
We want to use gravity in our favor to help drain the contents into the collection chamber.
191
So the other answers are incorrect.
192
This option one is an expected finding.
193
We're going to assess for the color, the amount and consistency, but a zero sanguinous drainage is expected.
194
And then we have option two, crepitus.
195
The crepitus can be expected around the site and only a little bit.
196
However, we do want to keep a close eye if the crepitus is increasing, if the area is larger, or if extending to the neck.
197
So we're going to immediately assess that one.
198
And then we have option three, titling and the wider seal.
199
This means it's working correctly.
200
That is exactly what we want to see.
201
So great job on that one.
202
That one can be a little tricky if you don't know much about the chest tubes, but you guys did amazing on that one.
203
All right.
204
And I'm going to take this moment just to pause.
205
If we have any retakers in our chat today, you know, we know that retaking the NCLEX and all the study materials can be expensive.
206
So we want to offer you guys this $20 off the review.
207
So if you guys want to upload your CPR or your candidate's performance report, and then you're going to get an email with the offer.
208
Or I know they changed our social media, so you should also be able to click on the link if it pops up.
209
Or you can also find it at uworldnursing.com.
210
So there's several options to find this code.
211
So you guys don't forget to take advantage of this.
212
And this is for retakers only.
213
All right.
214
Next question.
215
And the nurse is assessing a client who is experiencing an acute exacerbation of asthma.
216
Which of the following findings would require immediate follow-up?
217
We have option one, abrupt discontinuation of wheezing.
218
Option two, use of accessory muscles.
219
Option three, non-productive cuffs.
220
And we have option four, difficulty speaking.
221
So here we have an acute exacerbation of asthma.
222
And also let us know how you guys like to study, if there's any specific topics you guys need extra help in
223
in your free time go feel free to explore our all
224
our channels we do post all our old videos we have
225
some great videos on heart failure abgs chronic kidney disease we just did a video yesterday
226
so if you guys have time go ahead
227
and check out those lectures the lectures are my favorite
228
because you learn a lot and even
229
if you already know it's just a nice review you know all right
230
so this one is going to be option one An abrupt discontinuation of wheezing is our immediate follow-up.
231
This is silent chest and it's life-threatening.
232
So it typically requires mechanical ventilation or being in a ventilator.
233
So this is our immediate follow-up.
234
Wheezing is caused by air movement through the narrow airway, and that's what's happening in asthma and acute exacerbation of asthma.
235
So this is a common finding in clients due to the bronchoconstriction, wheezing.
236
However, a sudden decrease in wheezing indicates the lack of airflow.
237
So also the silent chest.
238
So this is an ominous sign that requires emergency interventions to prevent respiratory failure.
239
So anytime we see this, that's going to alert you.
240
Wait a minute.
241
That's not expected.
242
And then the options two to four, these are expected findings.
243
We have used accessory muscles.
244
They are having an acute exacerbation of asthma.
245
So they are going to be breathing harder.
246
We do have a nonproductive cuff and difficulty speaking.
247
So those are expected except the abrupt discontinuation of wheezing.
248
So good job.
249
All right, next question.
250
The nurse is observing a staff member caring for a client with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease or COPD.
251
The nurse should intervene if the staff member is observed.
252
And then we have our options.
253
Option one, demonstrating per slip breathing for the client, providing the client with information about smoking cessation.
254
Option three, administering albuterol to the client before meals.
255
And option four, hyperoxygenating the client before assisting the client to ambulate?
256
Looking at your answers.
257
We're almost there.
258
We got two more questions to go.
259
Silent lungs, danger.
260
Yes.
261
If you're going to remember anything, remember that.
262
Silent lungs, danger.
263
We don't like that.
264
That was for our old question.
265
All right, guys.
266
Great job.
267
Great job.
268
And we did talk a little bit about COPD earlier.
269
So these answers should relate to that.
270
Okay, okay.
271
I like the rationale, Steph Marie on TikTok.
272
Thank you.
273
All right, guys.
274
Okay, so the correct answer for this one is going to be option four.
275
So like I said, we did talk a little bit about COPD.
276
But just to remind you guys, this is a progressive, irreversible, lower respiratory condition that's characterized by chronic inflammation,
277
airway remodeling, and reduced expiratory airflow.
278
So the long-term carbon dioxide retention, it actually decreases the body's sensitivity to elevated carbon dioxide levels.
279
So these clients are getting accustomed to their new normal.
280
So they're going to rely more heavily on decreased oxygen levels to help them stimulate breathing, right?
281
We still need to breathe.
282
So too much oxygen can reduce this stimulus.
283
So it slows respiration and can worsen carbon dioxide retention.
284
So we're not going to hyper oxygenate our client with COPD because this takes away their stimulus to breathe.
285
So and I saw you guys put that in the rationale.
286
So great job.
287
And then we have options one, two and three.
288
These are appropriate for the client with COPD.
289
The first lip breathing is appropriate.
290
It prolongs exhalation.
291
It prevents premature airway collapse and it helps improve airway exchange.
292
Oxygen two, yes, smoking cessation is very important for clients with COPD.
293
And option three, we talked about, you know, client with that short of breath trying to eat a large meal.
294
So if we can help them, we would administer an albuterol before the meal so that we can, so the client can eat more comfortably and eat more.
295
Great job.
296
All right, guys, we're almost there.
297
We have the nurse's caring for a client who has a chest tube attached.
298
We have another chest tube to a closed chest drainage system.
299
Which of the following actions should the nurse take?
300
And here we have a select all that apply.
301
Option one, avoid stripping or milking the client's chest tube option two climb the chest tube while the client is ambulating
302
option three withhold analgesics to prevent respiratory depression option four monitor the insertion site for subcutaneous emphysema
303
and then we have option five instruct the client to avoid coughing
304
and deep breathing let me know what you guys think we're
305
so happy to have you guys here you guys have been doing amazing today within especially with rationale
306
so everybody gets bonus points everybody here gets bonus points and that is your price for wednesday wednesday morning
307
great job and remember we're going to have multiple correct answers for this one guys
308
all right somebody is done with nclix used your world question structure is exactly the same as nclix
309
so great job congratulations thank you for using us thank you for trusting us Nice.
310
All right, guys.
311
So the correct answers for this one are one in four, which I saw a lot in our comments.
312
So we did talk a little bit about chest tubes.
313
Just to remind you guys again, a chest tube is a closed chest system, closed chest drainage system.
314
So it's used to generate negative pressure to help re-expand a collapsed lung
315
or to help us drain a fluid in that pleural space.
316
So option one is correct.
317
We do not want to strip the tubing because it could dislodge or we can injure the lungs.
318
So we're not going to do that.
319
And then option four, we have monitor the insertion sites.
320
Yes, which of the following should the nurse take?
321
So yes, we are going to monitor the insertion site for subcutaneous emphysema.
322
This is part of our assessment, guys.
323
We're going to assess the client, their breathing, the output on the chest tube, what everything looks like and it's part of the focus assessment like I said.
324
So if we see any subcutaneous emphysema,
325
this can indicate that the tube is dislodged or that air is leaking into that subcutaneous tissue and this needs follow-up.
326
The other options are incorrect.
327
We do not clamp the chest tube.
328
We never clamp.
329
This can cause a pneumothorax or a collapsed lung.
330
So option two, no, we're not going to do that.
331
And then option three, chest tubes are very painful.
332
Just imagine having a chest tube literally inserted in your skin.
333
So we're not going to withhold analgesics.
334
We're going to work with our clients to help them be comfortable with the chest tube
335
because they can stay there for a couple of days.
336
And then we have option five, instruct the client to avoid coughing and deep breathing.
337
So this is not something we're going to instruct them.
338
Instead, we want them to cough and we want them to take deep breaths
339
so we can help move those secretions and they can breathe easier.
340
Great job.
341
Alrighty, and this is our last question for today.
342
The nurse is caring for a client who is experiencing an acute exacerbation of asthma.
343
The nurse should prepare to administer.
344
We have albuterol, salmitrol, oh my gosh, lutecasone, and montelicast.
345
I feel like I just said a spell.
346
But you guys got this.
347
So we have here acute exacerbation of asthma.
348
What do we think?
349
Okay, good job, guys.
350
And then how many have you guys gotten correct so far?
351
I also want to take this moment to tell you guys about our partnership with NSNA or the National Student Nurses Association.
352
With this partnership, we're hosting virtual webinars throughout the year and the upcoming ones are coming up in the fall.
353
So for more information, you can go to our social media, UWorld Nursing, or you can also check out NSNA's social media so you can sign up for our webinars.
354
All righty, guys.
355
This is our last question.
356
And as most of you, yeah, pretty much all of you guys got this one right.
357
We got option one.
358
So during an asthma attack, we need a fast-acting medication.
359
So that's going to be olibutyl.
360
It's a nebulized short-acting beta-2 agonist.
361
And this is going to open the airway and improve hypoxia.
362
The other options are incorrect.
363
Option two is used to prevent asthma attacks.
364
So it's not used for acute exacerbations.
365
Emphasis on acute.
366
I saw a couple say it was too easy.
367
It could be, but imagine if you're reading it too fast and you answer it incorrectly.
368
That's where we need to take our time.
369
And then we have option three, flotacosone.
370
So this inhaled systemic corticosteroids.
371
So these are going to help for long term to help that underlying inflammation.
372
They take some time to actually work, so they're not going to be used for an acute exacerbation.
373
And then lastly, we have that Montelicast.
374
So this is a leukotriene inhibitor combined with a short-acting and corticosteroid inhaler like budesonide.
375
It can help provide long-term asthma control.
376
However, it's not used for an acute exacerbation.
377
So great job, you guys.
378
That was our last question.
379
Again, don't forget to visit youworldnursing.com.
380
That is where we have all our good links, all the goodies that you can sign up for.
381
Don't forget to like, share and subscribe.
382
Help us reach that goal.
383
And I'll always leave you with this message.
384
You have what it takes to be a safe and compassionate nurse.
385
And great job.
386
Thank you for watching.
387
Thank you.

Cos'è la tecnica dello Shadowing?

Shadowing è una tecnica di apprendimento delle lingue supportata da studi scientifici, originariamente sviluppata per la formazione dei traduttori professionisti e resa popolare dal poliglotta Dr. Alexander Arguelles. Il metodo è semplice ma potente: ascolti un audio in inglese di madrelingua e lo ripeti immediatamente ad alta voce — come un'ombra che segue il parlante con un ritardo di solo 1–2 secondi. A differenza dell'ascolto passivo o degli esercizi di grammatica, lo shadowing costringe il tuo cervello e i muscoli della bocca a elaborare e riprodurre simultaneamente i modelli di discorso reale. La ricerca dimostra che migliora significativamente la precisione della pronuncia, l'intonazione, il ritmo, il discorso connesso, la comprensione dell'ascolto e la fluidità del parlato — rendendolo uno dei metodi più efficaci per la preparazione alla prova di speaking dell'IELTS e per la comunicazione reale in inglese.
