Answer to Question 1

ANS: A
The patient is given general anesthesia in the supine position on the transport cart, intubated and catheterized, then is turned into the prone position onto the specialized frame or operating table.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: B
Many body systems are affected by scoliosis. Chest excursion and respiratory effort are altered by the deformity that results in the rib cage. Digestion can be impaired. The patient may also have an altered and unsteady gait.

People who have myopia, or nearsightedness, are not able to see objects at a distance but only up close. It occurs when the cornea is either curved too steeply, the eye is too long, or both. This condition is progressive and worsens with time. More than 100 million people in the United States are nearsighted, but only 20% of those are born with the condition. Diet, eye exercise, drug therapy, and corrective lenses can all help manage nearsightedness.
