    When patient care is not documented what can be assumed about the patient's treatment?

    • No care or treatment was accomplished

    • There is no follow up care required

    • There were no complications

    • The outcome was positive

    Correct Answer
    A. No care or treatment was accomplished
    Explanation
    If patient care is not documented, it can be assumed that no care or treatment was accomplished. Documentation is a crucial part of healthcare as it provides a record of the care provided to the patient. Without proper documentation, it is difficult to track the progress of the patient's treatment, ensure follow-up care, identify any complications that may have occurred, or determine the outcome of the treatment. Therefore, the absence of documentation suggests that no care or treatment was carried out.

    Explanation
    Cardiac muscle tissue is similar to skeletal muscle tissue because of its striated appearance. Both tissues have a striped or striated appearance due to the arrangement of protein filaments within the muscle cells. This striation is responsible for the coordinated contraction and relaxation of the muscle fibers, allowing them to generate force and movement. Unlike smooth muscle and epithelial tissue, which do not have a striated appearance, cardiac muscle shares this characteristic with skeletal muscle tissue.
