Answer to Question 1

ANS: B
During extensive surgery the body is subjected to physiologic stress. Bleeding, tissue trauma, potent drugs, large extravascular fluid shifts, multiple transfusions, surgical positions that can inhibit breathing and circulation. All of these can contribute to altered physiology.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: T
The patient is anesthetized and intubated on the transport cart before they are moved to the OR bed in the prone position. If a urinary catheter is necessary, it is placed while on the transport cart.

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.
