The visual acuity is 20/90 and interprets it as: * “What the normal eyes can see at a distance of 90 feet, the patient’s eye sees at a distance of 20 feet.” “The patient’s eyes see 20% of what adults with normal vision see at 90 feet.” “To see what the normal eye sees at a distance of 20 feet, the patient’s eyes need a 90% magnification increase.” “What the normal eyes see at distance of 20 feet, the patient’s eyes see at a distance of 90 feet.” A patient with pancreatic cancer is admitted to the hospital for evaluation for treatment. The patient asks the nurse to explain the Whipple procedure the surgeon has described. The nurse’s explanation includes the information that a Whipple procedure involves: * radical removal of the pancreas, duodenum, and spleen, and attaching the stomach to the jejunum, which requires oral supplementation of pancreatic digestive enzymes and insulin replacement therapy. resection of the entire pancreas and the distal portion of the stomach, with anastomosis of the common bile duct and stomach into the duodenum. removal of part of the pancreas, part of the stomach, the duodenum, and the gallbladder, with joining of the pancreatic duct, common bile duct, and stomach into the jejunum. creating a bypass around the obstruction caused by the tumor by joining the gallbladder to the jejunum.
