EE Chapter 54 Stroke Q&A (1 OF 14) Sample Questions

1. A client presents with the following symptoms. Which of the following symptoms would be of greatest concern to the pharmacist that requires referral to emergency?

A. Patient face changes unevenly
B. Patient’s arm drifting down
C. Patient speech changes strangely
D. Severe unprovoked headache
E. All of the above

Answer

Ans: E

Strategic thinking:
1. Read the question. You are asked to identify symptom/s requiring urgent atten-tion.
2. Look for cues and keywords or key phrases. Cue here is symptoms of greatest concern. Key phrase, referral to emergency. You may use the MIsbah’s EE Flash-card Stroke Chapter to hell you remember the warnings of possible stroke. But even without it, all the given options are not normally seen in a healthy person who is well.
3. So, the correct answer is E.
