Answer to Question 1

D
The circulating nurse is responsible for confirming a signature on the consent form and marking the site for surgery.

Answer to Question 2

B
Although positioning may help decrease pain and increase circulation, anatomical alignment and ROM exercises are most helpful in preventing contractures in the immobilized patient. Pressure ulcers are prevented by frequent position changes.
