Answer to Question 1

B
Feedback:
Offer PRN pain relief medication approximately 30 minutes before the client is to get up.

Answer to Question 2

A
Feedback:
Functional electrical stimulation (FES) sends a stimulus to the nerves to move muscles. FES assists clients to move or walk, improve gait, reduce spasticity, or better use hands and fingers. Transdermal electrical nerve stimulation (TENS) assists in pain management. This process does not stimulate brain waves or prevent skin breakdown.
