If an inpatient chart with doctor's orders for vital signs every four hours was blank for the day, you would assume the
- A.
Patient was likely off the unit having tests complete
- B.
Patient is doing well and no problems were noted
- C.
Doctor probably changed the orders verbally
- D.
Vital signs were not completed
Correct Answer
D. Vital signs were not completedExplanation
If an inpatient chart with doctor's orders for vital signs every four hours was blank for the day, the most reasonable assumption would be that the vital signs were not completed. This is because if the patient was off the unit having tests complete, it would be expected that the vital signs would still be recorded upon their return. If the patient was doing well and no problems were noted, the vital signs would still need to be monitored. While it is possible that the doctor may have changed the orders verbally, it is more likely that the vital signs were simply not completed as required.Rate this question:

A fracture that results from disease, such as metastatic cancer of the bone, is called
- A.
Hairline
- B.
Pathologic
- C.
Congenital
- D.
Traumatic
Correct Answer
B. PathologicExplanation
A fracture that results from disease, such as metastatic cancer of the bone, is called a pathologic fracture. This type of fracture occurs when a weakened bone is unable to withstand normal stress and breaks more easily. In the case of metastatic cancer, the cancer cells weaken the bone structure, making it more susceptible to fractures. Pathologic fractures are different from traumatic fractures, which occur due to external forces or injuries, and congenital fractures, which are present at birth. Hairline fractures, on the other hand, are small cracks in the bone that do not fully separate the bone fragments.Rate this question:

The semi-recumbent position should be avoided over long periods of time in patients with orthopaedic disorders because it
- A.
Causes a drop foot
- B.
Causes venous stasis
- C.
Causes external hip rotation
- D.
Promotes flexion deformities of the hips
Correct Answer
D. Promotes flexion deformities of the hipsExplanation
The semi-recumbent position can promote flexion deformities of the hips in patients with orthopaedic disorders. This position involves sitting with the knees bent and the hips flexed, which can lead to tightening of the hip flexor muscles and weakening of the hip extensor muscles. Over time, this can result in a loss of range of motion and flexibility in the hip joints, leading to a flexion deformity where the hips are permanently bent. This can further exacerbate orthopaedic issues and cause discomfort and mobility limitations for the patient.Rate this question:

What actions, if any , should you take if your patient complains that his or her short leg cast feels tight?
- A.
None, it is normal for a cast to feel tight
- B.
Remove the cast
- C.
Bivalve the cast
- D.
Petal the cast
Correct Answer
C. Bivalve the castExplanation
If a patient complains that their short leg cast feels tight, the appropriate action to take is to bivalve the cast. Bivalving involves cutting the cast along its length to create two halves, allowing for expansion and relieving pressure on the patient's limb. This can help alleviate discomfort and prevent any potential complications that may arise from a tight cast, such as restricted blood flow or nerve damage. Removing the cast entirely may not be necessary or practical, as the patient may still require immobilization. Petaling the cast involves creating small cuts or openings at the edges of the cast to relieve pressure, but bivalving is a more effective solution in this scenario.Rate this question:

The side of the body that is affected by stroke is determined by the
- A.
Dominant right or left side
- B.
Side of the body that is weaker
- C.
Side of the brain that was traumatized
- D.
Position the patient was in when the stroke occured
Correct Answer
C. Side of the brain that was traumatizedExplanation
The side of the body that is affected by a stroke is determined by the side of the brain that was traumatized. When a stroke occurs, it is usually caused by a blockage or rupture of blood vessels in the brain, leading to a lack of oxygen and nutrients to certain areas. Depending on which side of the brain is affected, the opposite side of the body may experience weakness or paralysis. This is because the brain controls the movement and sensation of the opposite side of the body. Therefore, the side of the brain that was traumatized is the determining factor in which side of the body is affected by a stroke.Rate this question:

By being consistent in their actions and communication, healthcare professionals can help to alleviate the patient's anxiety and create a calm and reassuring environment. This approach also ensures that the patient receives the same level of care and attention regardless of their anxiety levels.Rate this question:
