I can't give example from NCLEX, but let's just say...anything but people. For example - intensive spirometer.

spirometer

A spirometer is a device used by your physician that assesses lung function. Spirometry, the evaluation of lung function with a spirometer, is one of the simplest, most common pulmonary function tests and may be necessary for any/all of the following reasons:

  • to determine how well the lungs receive, hold, and utilize air
  • to monitor a lung disease
  • to monitor the effectiveness of treatment
  • to determine the severity of a lung disease
  • to determine whether the lung disease is restrictive (decreased airflow) or obstructive (disruption of airflow)

Probably just a list of them, without any explanation would be fine. Thanks for correcting me! I am just tied. :bow:
