Do exercise until there is physical resistance in the muscles
Only do the exercise when patient expresses pain
Rate this question:
Strong man exercises a weaker man.

Call physician
Rate this question:
It is good to keep the knee bended for long periods to ease pain
It is always good to keep the knee bended for comfort
It is not good to keep the knee bended for a long time because muscles can shorten
It is good to keep the knee bended sometimes so that muscles will not shorten
It is always to keep the knee bended to keep it flexible.
Rate this question:
For older adults who are chronically ill, it is sometimes necessary to break ROM into two or more sessions to control fatigue
Insufficient calcium or lack of sunlight increases risk for bone loss and therefore increases the need for ROM and weight-bearing exercises
Many older adults with arthritis require additional time in the morning before resuming activities
Older people who fear falling often display reluctance to move from bed to chair. There is no need to do ROM exercises
Older adults who are depressed prefer to stay in bed. Leave them alone
Rate this question:
They flex and extend joints to passively mobilize them without strain
They are frequently used right after total knee replacements.
Initial postoperative setting for a knee arthoplasty is usually 2 cycles per minute, between 20 and 30 degrees of flexion and full extension
They do not need a Physician's Orders
Rate this question:

Prevent skin breakdown at pressure points
Allow circulation to flow freely
Help accelerate metabolism among older adults

Explain the procedure
Smile and greet the patient
Prepare patient for intervention
Introduce self
Arrange for assistance
Rate this question:
Administer PRN pain medications to promote patient comfort
Flex your knees and face your body away from the direction of the move. The foot farthest from the bed faces forward for broader base of support
