check all that apply

Show of hands who thought all those "check all that apply" questions on the exam were gay?

If I had written the test, here is what my check all that apply questions would say:

a) vodka-spiked punch
b) irish coffee
c) red bull and vodka
d) white zinfadel
e) fruit punch....with everclear

You are caring for M.H., a 30 year old G1P0 with preeclampsia starts seizing. What is your first action? (check all that apply)

b) frantically try to remember you day in Sim lab with "Noelle"
c) yell out "oh shit, we've got a twitcher in here!"
d) pee yourself just a little

You are doing a teaching session with C.L. who is going home on trebutaline PO and restricted to bed rest for PTL. Which statement(s) indicate further teaching is needed? (check all that apply)

b) "only take these pills if I feel contractions"
c) "since I am taking these pills, I don't need to call or come back in if my water breaks."
d) "holy shit, I'm what?!? I swear....I'm a virgin!!!"

A 24 year old G4P3 presents to the ED complaining of vaginal bleeding and a "backache" and wants to know if she is having a miscarriage. Which is the best response?
a) "yeah probably, but hey you've got 3 kids at home-that's plenty!"
b) "nope, bleeding is normal throughout pregnancy. we only worry when the liquid coming out is clear."
c) "ask someone else, I'm on my break."
d) "umm...yeah....we'll....it could....umm....the doctor will be right in to speak to you."

Ha ha ha! That's great. Eerily similar to a post I'm currently wasting class time writing. I have a feeling several of these will pop up all over the UTHSC-SON blogs in the coming days.
