inflammatory response ? (select all that apply)

Healing depends on (select all that apply)
A. Re-injury

,D. Immune system strength
A state or quality of being mobile or movable
A. Mobility
B. Immobility
C.impaired physical mobility
D. Deconditioned - answer a. Mobility
A loss of physical fitness
A. Mobility
B. Immobility
C.impaired physical mobility
D. Deconditioned - answer d. Deconditioned
This applies not only to an athlete who fails to maintain an optimal level of training but also
to an individual who does not maintain optimal physical activity.
Refers to an inability to move
A. Mobility
B. Immobility
C.impaired physical mobility
D. Deconditioned - answer . Immobility
Elderly patients are at risk for impaired mobility due to all the following except:
2
,A. Kyphosis
B. Decreased bone density
C. Increased elasticity of ligaments
D. Reduced muscle tone - answer c. Increased elasticity of ligaments
Spinal column, a thinning of vertebral disks, shortening of the spinal column, and onset of
kyphosis with spinal column compression occur. Bone density decreases and becomes brittle
(particularly in females), leaving older adults more susceptible to fracture. Cartilage
becomes rigid and fragile, and there is a loss of resilience and elasticity of ligaments. Muscle
mass and tone reduce significantly in late adult years. Cumulatively, these changes result in
mobility impairment attributable to reduced range of motion and pain in joints, reduced
muscle strength, and increased risk for bone fracture.4
D. Reduced muscle tone
In regards to the urinary system a patient who is immobile is at most likely at risk for except:
A. Renal calculi
B. Incontinence
C. Urinary stasis
D. Infection - answer b. Incontinence
Nurse is caring for an immobile patient. What are some consequence of immobiltiy in which
she should monitor for (select all that apply)
A. Orthostatic hypotension
B. Constipation
C. Skin break down
D. Contracture of joints
E. Diarrhea
3
, F. Crackles - answer a. Orthostatic hypotension
B. Constipation
C. Skin break down
D. Contracture of joints
F. Crackles--> atelectasis ( pneumonia....breath sounds are crackles)
Major reason people seek health care
A. Immobility
B. Infections
C. Pain
D. Signs of inflammation - answer c. Pain
True or false:
A patient who is unconscious can still experience pain - answer false
(power points)
Pain is a conscious experience that requires an awareness and sensation via an intact
nervous system
*why is the older population at risk for chronic pain (select all that apply)
A. Ability to tolerate pain increases
B. Frequent recipients of surgical procedures
