Question explanation audit

• The INR sets each warfarin dose; skipped tests hide drift toward bleeding or clotting.
• It needs checking even when today's INR is in range: diet, illness and new drugs move it.

• With a mechanical valve, anticoagulation is lifelong, and blade nicks bleed longer.
• Preventing small injuries is standard bleeding precaution teaching.

• Procedures and new drugs (antibiotics, NSAIDs) change bleeding risk and the INR.
• Clinicians can then plan around warfarin instead of discovering it mid-procedure.

• Melena and hematuria are signs of internal bleeding.
• Early reporting lets the provider check the INR before bleeding becomes serious.

• A double dose can push the INR into the bleeding range.
• The client follows the prescriber's missed-dose plan and never adjusts the dose alone.

• Aspirin adds an antiplatelet effect on top of warfarin.
• Acetaminophen, cleared with the provider, is the usual choice.

Blank 1 · the statement that shows the teaching worked

• Keeps pressure off the operated eye while it heals.
• It's the only choice that lowers risk rather than raising it.

• Bending over raises intraocular pressure in the healing eye.
• Teach sitting down and bringing the foot up instead.

• Heavy lifting strains and raises eye pressure in early recovery.
• Anything above light objects waits for the surgeon's clearance.

Blank 2 · the symptom that needs immediate follow-up

• Can signal retinal detachment, a complication needing same-day care.
• New or worsening visual symptoms are never "wait and see".

• Expected during healing; the client just mustn't rub the eye.
• Only itching with pain, discharge or vision change needs a call.

• Expected on day one.
• Heavy tearing, or tearing with pain or vision loss, would need follow-up.

Left leg appears shortened and internally rotated

• The classic sign of hip prosthesis dislocation.
• Keep the leg still and call the surgeon now: delay risks nerve and vessel damage.

• Too slow: a dislocated hip can compromise the limb within hours.

• A new abnormal limb position is never part of normal recovery.

Same shape for the other rows, e.g. Temperature 37.8 °C on post-op day 1 → Expected: low-grade fever in the first 24–48 h is the inflammatory response; Prompt follow-up only if it climbs or persists.

• The 15-15 rule: treat, wait 15 minutes, measure, repeat until the glucose is above 70 mg/dL.
• The snack comes last because the next meal is 2 hours away and protein prevents a second drop.

• Protein and fat slow absorption while the glucose is still 54 mg/dL.
• Fast carbohydrate treats the low; the snack only keeps it from coming back.

• The second dose is conditional: it's given because the recheck reads 64.
• Without the recheck there's no reason to give it.

• A single normal reading doesn't hold for 2 hours in an active teenager.

• Dose: 0.08 mcg/kg/min × 75 kg = 6 mcg/min. Concentration: 4 mg = 4,000 mcg ÷ 250 mL = 16 mcg/mL.
• Rate: 6 ÷ 16 = 0.375 mL/min × 60 = 22.5 mL/hr, the unit the pump is set in.

• The rate per minute; the ×60 to convert to mL/hr is missing.

• The mg → mcg conversion is off by a factor of 1,000.

• Weight left out: 0.08 ÷ 16 × 60 treats the dose as mcg/min instead of mcg/kg/min.

• A white reflex (leukocoria) can mean retinoblastoma, congenital cataract or retinal detachment.
• It needs urgent ophthalmology referral, even though the infant tracks with both eyes.

• A red-orange reflex is the normal finding, the one you compare the other eye against.
• Referral is about the eye that doesn't match it.

• Clear sclerae are normal: no redness, discharge or injury.
• They don't explain an abnormal reflex.

• 10 mL/hr of urine and a creatinine of 3.2 mean the kidneys can't clear potassium, which is already 5.8 mEq/L.
• Another 20 mEq risks a fatal dysrhythmia: hold it and call the provider.

• Adds no potassium; prophylactic heparin continues in a bed-bound patient.
• This dose isn't a problem in acute kidney injury.

• Adds no potassium and isn't affected by the renal findings.

• Adds no potassium; it's often given as a phosphate binder in kidney failure.

• Frequent swallowing, visible neck swelling, a muffled voice and SpO₂ falling to 91% = bleeding compressing the airway.
• Rapid response, sit upright, oxygen, back to theatre.

• Perioral tingling and carpal spasm = hypocalcaemia.
• IV calcium gluconate with cardiac monitoring; 8.0 mg/dL afterwards is still low, so keep checking.

• Pain and anxiety explain it; neck swelling threatens the airway within minutes.

• It hides the bleeding and does nothing for the compression.

• A lower tolerable deviation rate demands more precision, so the auditor needs a larger sample.
• It's the only change here that makes the conclusion harder to support.

• Fewer expected deviations leave more room below the tolerable rate, so the sample shrinks.
• Sample size rises with the expected rate, not falls.

• Accepting more risk of overreliance means less assurance is needed, so the sample shrinks.
• Sample size moves opposite to acceptable risk.

• Less planned reliance means the control test has to prove less.
• Heavier reliance is what drives samples up.

3 · The obsolescence misstatement exceeds performance materiality

• Supported reserve $480,000 − recorded $300,000 = a $180,000 misstatement.
• Exhibit 1 sets performance materiality at $175,000, so it's over by $5,000.

• Only holds if the misstatement is measured against the recorded reserve alone, or against overall rather than performance materiality.

• Put–call parity: p = c + K·e^−rT − S₀ = 4.20 + 49.46 − 50 = 3.66.
• The strike is paid at expiry, so it enters at its present value, discounted the way the rate is quoted (continuously).

• Discounts the call premium as well: 4.20·e^−0.05 + 49.46 − 50.
• The premium is paid today; it's already a present value.

• Uses the undiscounted strike: 4.20 + 52 − 50.
• Parity compares present values, so the strike must be discounted.

• The passage calls their approaches "radically opposed courses of action": rights that follow from universal principles versus rights won by direct political struggle.
• It's the only choice that states both halves of the passage's comparison.

• The passage never discusses how society judged the arguments.
• It adds a claim rather than summarising one.

• Contradicts the passage, which calls them radically opposed.

• Turns a detail (no legislation) into a cause the passage never states.
• The passage says nothing about how widely their views were accepted.

• Invents a contrast about timing; the passage contrasts methods.
• Nothing ties Gouges to the revolution's course or Condorcet to patience.

• Meets all three conditions: a cost (delay), why the benefit outweighs it (fewer errors), and an uncertainty (volunteer capacity).
• The only option that says the benefit is worth the cost.

• Names a possible cost overrun, but never says why the benefit is worth it.

• Has a cost (staffing) and an uncertainty (participation).
• Missing: why the achievement gain outweighs the staffing cost.

• Names an uncertainty (participation) but no cost, so there's nothing to weigh.

• Names a cost, then leaves the choice open instead of concluding the benefit outweighs it.
