Question 14: "Which result is a normal PT/Protime result for a patient not on blood thinning medications?"

The answer is the fourth one: 10.4 - 15.7 seconds.

Explanation:

• PT (Prothrombin Time) is a test that measures how long it takes blood to clot. For a person not on blood-thinning medications, the normal range is typically around 10 to 13 seconds, though it can vary slightly depending on the laboratory. The range 10.4 - 15.7 seconds is the closest to the typical normal range.
• The other options (101.9-120.9 seconds, 17.9 - 30.8 seconds, 20.4 - 20.7 seconds) are not within the typical normal range for PT.

Question 15: "Which of the following digits is the preferred site for a capillary puncture in an adult patient?"

The answer is the second one: Fourth.

Explanation:

• The fourth finger (ring finger) is commonly used for capillary puncture in adults. It is preferred because it is less calloused and has a good blood supply, making it easier to obtain a blood sample.
• The first finger (thumb) and fifth finger (pinky) are generally avoided due to their thicker skin and proximity to bone, which can make the procedure more painful and less effective.
• The second finger (index finger) is also less commonly used due to its frequent use and potential for calluses.
