Answer to Question 1

internal rotation

Rationale: External rotation will position the humeral epicondyles parallel to the image receptor. Internal rotation will position the humeral epicondyles perpendicular to the image receptor. When the palm of the hand faces the patient's thigh, the humerus is in internal rotation.

Answer to Question 2

Do not resuscitate

Rationale: DNR stands for do not resuscitate. A DNR must be discussed and disclosed with the patient's physician, as well as disclosed properly in paperwork.
