Question 3 of 5
What is accurate health promotion teaching to prevent ear infection or trauma? (Select all that apply)
Correct Answer: D
Rationale: The correct health promotion teachings to prevent ear infection or trauma include blowing the nose gently without blocking nostrils, wearing hearing protection when exposed to loud noise, and avoiding the use of cotton-tipped applicators to clean the external ear. Blocking one nostril when blowing the nose is incorrect, as it can cause problems. Therefore, choice A is inaccurate. Additionally, using cotton-tipped applicators to clean the external ear can lead to trauma or infection, making choice C a correct preventive measure.
Question 4 of 5
Which nonpharmacological intervention does not help reduce edema?
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: The correct answer is A: Heat therapy. Heat therapy can vasodilate blood vessels, increasing blood flow to the area and potentially exacerbating edema. Passive range of motion (PROM), elevation of the extremity, and cold therapy are all beneficial interventions for reducing edema. PROM helps with circulation, elevation assists in reducing fluid accumulation, and cold therapy can help constrict blood vessels and decrease swelling.
Question 5 of 5
The client moves both crutches forward, with weight on the unaffected leg, and then moves the unaffected leg forward, shifting weight onto it. Which of the following gaits is being utilized?
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: The correct answer is B, Three-point gait. In a three-point gait, one leg is non-weight bearing, as described in the scenario where the client shifts weight onto the unaffected leg. Choices A, C, and D are incorrect. A two-point gait involves partial weight-bearing on both legs, a four-point gait involves weight-bearing on both legs, and 'Unaffected gait' is not a recognized term in gait patterns.
