Remaining still for hours, sitting for long periods of time, anything that prevents
circulation - Answer - Clients at risk for DVT
- Handrails in bathrooms
- Ramps instead of stairs
- Wear rubber sole shoes
- Avoid scatter rugs
- Prevent clutter
- Avoid slippery floors - Answer - Prevention of falls
- Increased intraocular pressure in a hollow organ.
- When the intraocular pressure increase it leads to compression of the retinal blood
vessels and photoreceptors and their nerve fibers resulting in hypoxemia and death of
the tissue and loss of vision.
- Assure the patient can administer own eye drops correctly
- Keep follow-up appointments every 1-3 months to evaluate the IOP.
- If the patient had surgical treatment be sure to educate on the S&S of hemorrhage and
detachment including severe pain, and vision loss. These should be reported
immediately to HCP. - Answer - Glaucoma teaching and pathophysiology
- Maintain perfusion, improve comfort, and prevent impaired mobility - Answer -
Prioritization of care for a fracture
- Handle with the palms of your hands, have patient report painful "hot spots" under the
cast which might indicate area of pressure necrosis, instruct patient to never put
anything down into the cast, encourage the patient/family to smell the area for
mustiness or unpleasant odor (if ignored the patient may develop a fever).
- Assess skin color and temperature, sensation, mobility, pain, capillary refill, and pulses
distal to the fracture site. CMS- circulation, movement, and sensation. - Answer - Cast
education and assessment
- Infection of the bone. May be acute or chronic.
- Educate about medications, encourage compliance and to follow regimen (take full
course of medications), inform about signs and symptoms, provide comfort during rest
and with positioning, assist in ADL, coordinate physical therapy while in the hospital to
help improve mobility especially after surgery, provide mobility assistance devices. -
Answer - Osteomyelitis prevention and treatment methods
, Gonioscopy is used when elevation intraocular pressure is diagnosed to determine if the
glaucoma is open-angle or closed-angle. It allows the visualization of the angle where
the iris meets the cornea. - Answer - Test to determine open vs closed angle glaucoma
- CMS: circulation, mobility, sensation. Assess skin color, temperature, sensation,
mobility, pain, capillary refill, and pulses. - Answer - Neurovascular assessment
- P: Palliative, Q: Quality, R: Region, S: Scale, T: Time - Answer - Pain assessment
- The great toe shifts laterally, and the first metatarsal head of the great toe enlarges
- Pain especially when shoes are worn
- Treatment: custom made shoes or surgery - Answer - Bunions (hallux valgus)
- Perform passive ROM exercises for patients who are immobile
- Turn and reposition every 2 hours
- Assess for skin redness - Answer - Priority assessments for immobile patients
- A continuous ringing or noise perception in the ears. - Answer - Tinnitus
Also called farsightedness. Occurs when the eye does not refract light enough. As a
result, images actually converge behind the retina. Distant vision is normal, but near
vision is poor. - Answer - Hyperopia
- Decreases all muscle strengths including the lungs, increases secretion (aspiration
pneumonia is a risk), decrease ventilation capacity in response to exercise, respiratory
depth decreases affecting ventilation, air passage blockage can lead to atelectasis
(collapse of air sacs or alveoli). - Answer - Immobility consequences on the respiratory
system
Paralysis of one side of the body - Answer - Hemiplegia
Paralysis of the lower portion of the trunk and both legs - Answer - Paraplegia
Partial or incomplete paralysis - Answer - Paresis
Paralysis of all four extremities. - Answer - quadriplegia
- Used for partial weight-bearing, both feet; faster, but less support than a 4-point gait. -
Answer - Two-point gait
Non-weight bearing; faster than a 4-point gait; can use with a walker - Answer - Three-
point gait
Used for partial weight-bearing, both feet; patient must shift weight constantly. - Answer
- Four-point gait
