Which of these assumptions is NOT part of the theory of a balance between analgesia and side effects?
- A.
Medication for side effects is given as needed
- B.
Patients are adults with ability to learn, set goals and communicate symptoms
- C.
The nurse and physician collaborate to effectively manage acute pain
- D.
Children have a parent or other caregiver at bedside
Correct Answer
D. Children have a parent or other caregiver at bedsideExplanation
The assumption that children have a parent or other caregiver at bedside is not part of the theory of a balance between analgesia and side effects. The theory focuses on the collaboration between the nurse and physician to effectively manage acute pain, the ability of adult patients to learn, set goals, and communicate symptoms, and the administration of medication for side effects as needed. The presence of a parent or caregiver at the bedside is not directly related to the theory of balancing analgesia and side effects.Rate this question:

In an effort to capture and study the experience of pain, researchers have
- A.
Created so many pain scales that it is sometimes difficult to compare scores across studies
- B.
Created a standard pain scale to be used on post-surgery patients
- C.
Been unable to develop an accurate, comprehensive pain scale for use in post-surgical patients
- D.
Discarded the use of pain scales
Correct Answer
A. Created so many pain scales that it is sometimes difficult to compare scores across studiesExplanation
The explanation for the given correct answer is that researchers have created multiple pain scales, resulting in a wide variety of options. This can make it challenging to compare pain scores across different studies since each scale may measure pain differently or have different criteria for rating pain intensity. Therefore, the abundance of pain scales can create difficulties in standardizing pain measurement and making accurate comparisons between studies.Rate this question:

Multi-modal therapy, as used in pain relief, includes
- A.
Potent pain medication, pharmacological adjuvants, and non-pharmalogical adjuvants
- B.
Potent pain medications and pharmacological adjuvants only
- C.
Non-pharmacological adjuvants only
Correct Answer
A. Potent pain medication, pHarmacological adjuvants, and non-pHarmalogical adjuvantsExplanation
Multi-modal therapy in pain relief involves the use of multiple treatment modalities to effectively manage pain. This includes the use of potent pain medication to alleviate pain symptoms, pharmacological adjuvants to enhance the effectiveness of pain medication, and non-pharmacological adjuvants to complement the pharmacological interventions. By combining different approaches, multi-modal therapy aims to provide comprehensive pain relief and improve the overall well-being of the patient.Rate this question:

Non-pharmacological adjuvants include
- A.
Massage
- B.
Application of hot/cold
- C.
Relaxation, music, imagery
- D.
All of the above
Correct Answer
D. All of the aboveExplanation
Non-pharmacological adjuvants refer to additional therapies or interventions that can be used alongside medication to enhance the overall treatment outcome. In this case, the correct answer is "all of the above" because massage, the application of hot or cold, relaxation techniques, music, and imagery are all examples of non-pharmacological adjuvants. These interventions can be used to manage pain, reduce anxiety, promote relaxation, and enhance overall well-being.Rate this question:
