1. Right Answer: C Explanation: A high bilirubin level is found with hepatic immaturity in newborns, from which jaundice results. The other choices are not. Reduction of Risk Potential
2. Right Answer: D Explanation: Amylase is elevated in conditions of pancreatic inflammation, such as pancreatitis. The other enzymes are associated with other types of tissue damage.Reduction of Risk Potential
3. Right Answer: C Explanation: CPK-MB is elevated in clients who have had a myocardial infarction. CPK-BB is elevated in clients who have brain damage, and CPK-MM is elevated in clients who have skeletal muscle damage. CPK-MI does not exist. Reduction of Risk Potential
4. Right Answer: B Explanation: The troponin level is the first to rise in a client who has had a myocardial infarction, followed by CPK, SGOT, and LDH. Reduction of Risk Potential
5. Right Answer: C Explanation: H. pylori is the most common microorganism associated with gastritis. The other microorganisms listed might be associated with gastritis but to a lesser degree.Physiological Adaptation
