Practice exercise (made-up values, not clinical guidance). At 1 minute after birth, a practice newborn has a pink body with blue hands and feet, a heart rate of 90/min, a grimace when stimulated, active movement and slow, irregular breathing with a weak cry. What is the APGAR score?
Practice exercise (made-up values, not clinical guidance). A practice patient is assessed with the Morse fall scale: history of falling in the last 3 months: yes; secondary diagnosis: yes; ambulatory aid: none, bed rest or nurse assists; IV therapy or saline lock: yes; gait: impaired; mental status: overestimates or forgets limits. Find the Morse total MFS.
Practice exercise (made-up values, not clinical guidance). Use the NEWS2 chart (SpO₂ scale 1) for these observations: respiration rate 20/min, SpO₂ 86% on supplemental oxygen, blood pressure 88/52 mmHg, pulse 76/min, unresponsive, temperature 35.5 °C. What is the NEWS2 total score?
