❑ ARTICLE 1: Use of Thickened Liquids in Skilled Nursing Facilities Multiple Choice 1. In this study, long-term care facilities had higher staffing levels for which of the following health care professionals? E (a) Registered dietitians E (b) Speech-language pathologists 2. In this study, the average percent of residents in skilled nursing facilities receiving thickened liquids was: E (a) 8% E (b) 12% E (c) 20% E (d) 25% 3. One reason long-term care residents may be at high risk for dehydration is because of decreased thirst. E (a) True E (b) False 4. The greatest proportion of residents in this study were reported to be on thickened liquids described as: E (a) water-like
E (b) nectar-syrup like E (c) honey-like E (d) spoon/pudding thick 5. Surveys in this study indicated that thickened water is typically offered to residents on thickened liquids. E (a) True E (b) False 6. Dysphagia may be caused by which of the following? E (a) Stroke E (b) Neurological disease E (c) Head and neck surgery/radiation E (d) All of the above 7.

CONTINUING EDUCATION ❑ ARTICLE 2: Growth Hormone, Glutamine, and Modified Diet for Intestinal Adaptation Multiple Choice 1. The absence of minimum intestinal mass required for adequate digestion and absorption of nutrients is known as: E (a) intestinal adaptation E (b) intestinal failure E (c) intestinal rehabilitation E (d) intestinal malabsorption 2. Greater bowel length, lower body weight, and greater bowel length– body weight ratio are some of the predictors of an ability to remain off of home parenteral nutrition. E (a) True E (b) False 3. Intestinal adaptation in adults continues for: E (a) 6 months E (b) 1 year E (c) 2 years E (d) 3 years 4. According to the literature reviewed for this article, there appears to be no synergistic effect between growth hormone, glutamine, and modified diet.
E (a) True E (b) False 5. Results of intestinal adaptation include which of the following: E (a) increased nutrient absorption E (b) shortened transit time E (c) decreased electrolyte absorption E (d) decreased fluid absorption 6. The variability of gastrointestinal anatomy in these studies related primarily to the presence or absence of the colon in study participants. E (a) True E (b) False 7. During intestinal adaptation, all of the following changes are typically seen except: E (a) increase in villus height E (b) decrease in enzyme activity E (c) cell proliferation E (d) increase in crypt depth
