Answer to Question 1

D
Before shaving, assess whether the patient has a bleeding tendency. Review medical history or laboratory values (e.g., platelet counts, prothrombin time). Determine the need to use an electric razor for the patient's safety because of the potential for bleeding. Shaving with a disposable razor is not contraindicated for patients with heart disease, diabetes mellitus, or a head injury.
