Answer to Question 1

1
Rationale: CBR is complete bedrest, and is an acceptable abbreviation. Three days should be written out because X3d could be misinterpreted.

Answer to Question 2

3
Rationale 1: One purpose for using body mechanics is to reduce fatigue in the employee. An injury is more likely to occur when the staff member's muscles are fatigued. The purpose of appropriate body mechanics is not client safety or to reduce client fatigue, it is for the protection of the staff. Even when using proper body mechanics, it is possible to cause friction to the client's skin.

Your skin wrinkles if you stay in the bathtub a long time because the outermost layer of skin (which consists of dead keratin) swells when it absorbs water. It is tightly attached to the skin below it, so it compensates for the increased area by wrinkling. This happens to the hands and feet because they have the thickest layer of dead keratin cells.
