Question 1 of 5
Which intervention is appropriate to include in the plan of care for a patient with Parkinson's disease?
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: Assessing for orthostatic hypotension is crucial in the care of patients with Parkinson's disease. Orthostatic hypotension is a common non-motor symptom where there is a significant drop in blood pressure upon standing. Normal blood pressure should not drop more than 20 mm Hg systolic or 10 mm Hg diastolic within 2 to 5 minutes of standing. This condition can increase the risk of falls, which is a significant concern in this population.
