Question:

Of the options below, which one must be reported to the charge nurse “STAT”?

A A patient’s radial pulse of 135.
explanation

Depending on people's activity level, a normal adult’s radial pulse is 60-100 beats per minute. It is above normal when the radial pulse is 135 beats per minute and it should be addressed immediately. The respiratory rate of 18 falls in a “normal” category and cloudy urine or loose stools may be a problem but not something that necessitates the label “STAT.”

There are definitely a few mistakes in this app, some of the answers are just plain wrong so make sure this is not your only source of study material. Other than that this app is very helpful.

I would love to give this app 5 stars but in the Nursing Skills section it does not allow you to go on to part 7. After you get to part 6 it either just never loads or it tells you to go to part 7 and does absolutely nothing.
