UWorld NCLEX® Question of the day! 🧠

07/28/2026

Bro thought he was cool. Now he's ice cold.💀🧊

CORRECT ANSWER: B. Strip clothes, warm blankets on trunk, head, neck

EXPLANATION:
* Why Option B is correct: The patient is presenting with severe hypothermia (core temp 30.6°C / 87.1°F, bradycardia, loss of shivering, altered mental status). Wet clothing dramatically accelerates body heat loss, so removing it immediately is critical. Passive or active rewarming must focus on the core/trunk (head, neck, torso) first to avoid "afterdrop"—a dangerous drop in core body temperature caused by cold blood returning to the heart from the extremities.

WHY OTHER OPTIONS ARE INCORRECT:
* Option A & D: Rubbing, massaging, or submerging extremities in hot water can trigger fatal cardiac arrhythmias (such as ventricular fibrillation) or cause tissue damage to cold-injured skin.
* Option C: Giving oral fluids to an unresponsive or altered patient presents a severe aspiration risk.

😵‍💫 Bruv walking around like he unlocked his sharingan...

Correct Answer:
Go to the emergency room

Explanation
Stopping blood pressure medication abruptly for two weeks can cause rebound hypertension—a sudden, dangerous spike in blood pressure. When high blood pressure is accompanied by sudden vision changes (like blurred, spotty, or lost vision), it signals a hypertensive emergency.

This means the extremely high pressure is actively causing end-organ damage, specifically to the delicate blood vessels in the retinas (hypertensive retinopathy), brain, or optic nerve. Immediate medical evaluation in an emergency room is required to safely lower blood pressure and prevent permanent vision loss, stroke, or heart complications.
