question 14

Multiple Choice

Nurses at a local trauma center were involved in evaluating their hospital's screening program for at-risk alcohol use. The nurses found that, for many of the health care workers, there seemed to be confusion as to what constituted a positive screen. As part of their staff training, they provided information on the levels of risk. They explained a positive screen:

• A)Occurs only with those who have an alcohol use disorder.
• B)Occurs with a blood alcohol concentration (BAC) to 0.08 grams percent or above.
• C)Occurs independent of other risk factors.
• D)Occurs when a person's current level of consumption puts them at risk for adverse health consequences.

Definitions:

Ground-Faults

Ground-faults occur when an unintended path forms in an electrical circuit, allowing current to flow directly to the ground, potentially causing shocks or fires.

Short-Circuit

A fault in an electrical circuit where the current goes through an unintended path, often resulting in excessive current flow that can cause damage or fire.

Ungrounded Phase Conductors

These are electrical conductors that are part of a phase in a multi-phase system and do not have a direct electrical connection to ground, potentially leading to unsafe operating conditions if not managed properly.

Power Supply System

The system that provides electrical power to devices, converting electrical energy from one form to another if necessary.
