1. When would induced hypothermia be indicated?
a. During brain surgery
b. During bowel surgery
c. To break a fever
d. To treat carbon monoxide poisoning
ANS: A
There are times during brain or cardiac surgery that hypothermia is induced to lower the
patient’s metabolism so that less oxygen is needed by the body. If a patient has a high fever,
measures are taken to lower it but not to the point of hypothermia. Carbon monoxide
poisoning is not treated by hypothermia.
REF: pp. 11-12

d. Tachycardia
ANS: D
In an adult, a heart rate of greater than 100/minute is considered to be tachycardia. A heart
rate of less than 60/minute in an adult is considered to be bradycardia. Palpation and
auscultation are both acceptable to check heart rate.
