A nursing instructor is educating a student nurse about methods to prevent orthostatic hypotension. The nursing instructor recognizes that further teaching is needed when the student states:
1. I will encourage the patient to remain flat in bed.
2. I will change the patient's position in bed frequently.
3. I will encourage dorsal and plantar flexion of the feet.
4. I will perform passive range-of-motion exercises if the patient can't move.
Question 2
A nurse encourages a patient to take full, deep breaths to keep the alveoli open. The nurse teaches the patient that this is done to prevent
1. Shearing.
2. Peristalsis.
3. Atelectasis.
4. Deep vein thrombosis (DVT).
