Four months after sustaining a fractured humerus, a patient has
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\
reached a plateau. Active and passive shoulder motions have
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\
improved but remain impaired. The patient reports pain and
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\
tenderness when the fracture site is palpated. The patient's
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\
temperature is 98.6°F (37°C). What is the MOST likely cause of
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\
the patient's lack of recent progress?
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\
1.Infection of the fractured bone |\ |\ |\ |\
2.Nonunion of the fracture |\ |\ |\
3.Heterotopic ossification |\
4.Compartment syndrome - CORRECT ANSWERS ✔✔2.Nonunion |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\
of the fracture
|\ |\
Individuals who have a nonunion fracture often have pain, heat,
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\
and tenderness at the fracture site.
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\
When monitoring the vital signs of a person who has mitral valve
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\
prolapse, which of the following findings is MOST likely to be
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\
observed?
1.Bradypnea
2.Bradycardia
3.Tachypnea
,4.Tachycardia - CORRECT ANSWERS ✔✔4.Tachycardia |\ |\ |\ |\
Tachycardia, which is rapid heart beat, is a clinical sign/symptom|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\
of mitral valve prolapse due to dysautonomia
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\
The exercise shown in the photograph is LEAST appropriate for a
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\
patient who has which of the following characteristics?
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\
1.Anterior glenohumeral instability |\ |\
2.Forward head posture |\ |\
3.Limited glenohumeral lateral (external) rotation range of
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\
motion
4.Tightness of the pectoralis minor and pectoralis major -
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\
CORRECT ANSWERS ✔✔1.Anterior glenohumeral instability
|\ |\ |\ |\
Patient in picture was in shoulder flexion an lateral rotation
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\
agains the wall. |\ |\
The activity shown in the photograph will force the humeral head
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\
anteriorly, thus encouraging anterior dislocation. Lateral
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\
(external) rotation and abduction should be avoided (pp. 547-
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\
548). This activity is appropriate for a patient who has
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\
hypomobility, not ins |\ |\

A patient with a recent history of immobilization has a new onset
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\
of unilateral leg swelling with dependent edema. This condition is
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\
MOST likely due to:
|\ |\ |\ |\
1.congestive heart failure. |\ |\
2.peripheral arterial disease. |\ |\
3.deep vein thrombosis. |\ |\
4.lymphedema. - CORRECT ANSWERS ✔✔3.deep vein thrombosis. |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\
Transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation is CONTRAINDICATED |\ |\ |\ |\ |\
for use on a patient:
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\
1.with a demand pacemaker.
|\ |\ |\
2.with a history of stable angina.
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\
3.with terminal cancer.
|\ |\
4.who is pregnant during labor. - CORRECT ANSWERS ✔✔1.with a
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\
demand pacemaker
|\ |\
, Transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation can be performed to |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\
treat a pregnant patient but may not be used over the uterus.
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\
Electrical stimulation may be used for pain relief during labor.
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\
In a patient with unilateral hip impairment, a cane is ordinarily
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\
used on the: |\ |\
1.uninvolved side to lessen the muscle force required of the
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\
abductors on the involved side. |\ |\ |\ |\
2.involved side to lessen the muscle force required of the hip
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\
abductors on that side. |\ |\ |\
3.uninvolved side to lessen the muscle force required of the
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\
adductors on the involved side. |\ |\ |\ |\
4.involved side to lessen the muscle force required of the hip
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\
abductors on the uninvolved side. - CORRECT ANSWERS
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\
✔✔1.uninvolved side to lessen the muscle force required of the |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\
abductors on the involved side. |\ |\ |\ |\
Use of a cane on the uninvolved side will help to decrease the
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\
force required of the hip abductors on the impaired side when
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\
weight-bearing.
A patient has been experiencing postural hypotension when
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\
moving from supine to sitting position. To reduce the risk of
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\
hypotension, which of the following actions should be |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\
implemented prior to treatment? |\ |\ |\
1.Elevate the head of the bed. |\ |\ |\ |\ |\
2.Place the bed in the Trendelenburg position.
