Documentation is typically performed per a checklist or flow sheet. The ends of the restraint are tied to a part of the bed that allows for position changes without unfastening them. Safety and Infection Control2. Right Answer: AExplanation: Creamy, pink-tinged vaginal drainage persists for 1 to 2 months after removal of a cervical implant. Diarrhea, not constipation, is usually a side effect of cervical implants. Stomatitis and xerostomia are local side effects of radiation to the mouth. Physiological Adaptation3. Right Answer: DExplanation: Nurses should assist clients to evaluate themselves and make behavior changes. Listening to clients, supporting clients strengths, assisting clients to look at themselves in totality, and encouraging clients to set attainable goals should be part of the nurse-client relationship. Psychosocial Integrity4. Right Answer: AExplanation: VLCDs are used in the clinical treatment of obesity under close medical supervision. The diet is low in calories, high in quality of protein, and has a minimum of carbohydrates to spare protein and prevent ketosis. Physiological Adaptation5. Right Answer: AExplanation: Linens should be double-bagged. Isolation refers to techniques used to prevent or to limit the spread of infection. Some form of isolation has been used for centuries, whether to protect a high-risk person from exposure to pathogens or to prevent the transmission of pathogens from an infected person to others.Special handling of articles and linen soiled by any body fluid is indicated. These articles should be placed in impervious bags before they are removed from the clients bedside. Bagging in watertight containers is indicated to prevent exposure of personnel and contamination of the environment. The outside of the bag should not be contaminated when placing articles inside it. Each hospital and community agency has procedures for labeling and decontaminating exposed articles. Items that are visibly soiled with body substances should be rinsed and placed in plastic bags or clearly marked containers, often labeled 'Contaminated.'If the outside of the bag becomes contaminated, placing that bag in another bag (double-bagging) is required.
