Which of the following organs are most commonly affected by MODs?
Explanation & Rationale
A. Brain, pancreas, and gallbladder: These are not the primary targets in early MODS. Brain dysfunction may follow later but is not typical initially. B. Colon, small and large intestines, and stomach: The GI tract can be affected, but not among the most commonly affected organs in early MODS. C. Heart, lungs, liver, and kidneys: These are the primary organs affected in MODS. Lung failure often presents first (as in ARDS), followed by cardiovascular, hepatic, and renal dysfunction. D. Spleen and bone marrow: Not typical primary targets in MODS, though immune and hematologic effects may occur.
