If "maintain patent airway" is one of the answers, it IS the answer. And "massage the boggy uterus" is always the OB answer :cool:

Practicing nclex-style questions always helps. Don't read extra into the question. Practicing questions helps you understand the rationales behind the answers. And never ever ever ever change an answer unless you are 150,000% sure that what you are changing it to is correct. Good luck to you!

When in doubt and these are probably the correct answer:

Lab question- Potassium

Priority question- Airway
