Q

Med administration such as inhalers, nebulizers

A

(every 4 hours as needed, or for acute every 4 hours around the clock. for someone who is wheezing, but don’t give it too often bc it’s a CNS stimulant)

26
Q

Isotonic exercises (tone your muscles by lifting weights)

A

muscle shortening and active movement
* Ex: lifting a weight

27
Q

isometric exercise (my abs are not metrics)

A

muscle contraction without muscle shortening
* Ex: keeping arm extended or contraction of ab muscles while seated

28
Q

Isokinetic exercise (my kin needs knee machine)

A

muscle contraction with resistance
* Ex: use of Continuous Passive
Motion (CPM) device after knee surgery

29
Q

Adduction

A

Adduction (adding to my body)

30
Q

Pronation (put down pro nation)

A

Moving the bones of the forearm so the palm of the hand faces downward while held in the front of the body

31
Q

Supination

A

Moving the bones of the forearm so the palm of the hand
faces upward while held in the front of the body

32
Q

Complications of Immobility

A

Negative nitrogen balance Resulting from ↑metabolic demand from acute illness (catabolic protein breakdown)

33
Q

Trendelenberg

A

○ manages Hypotension
○ Avoid in patient with increased intracranial
pressure

34
Q

Supine - when to use?

A

Use when patient becomes hypotensive

35

Position for administering enemas

A

sims

36
Q

PRN restraint orders are
