Answer to Question 1

proprioceptive function
Assess the patient's proprioceptive function (awareness of posture and changes in equilibrium). Determine the stability of the patient's balance for transfer.

Answer to Question 2

D
D. Murmurs are sustained swishing or blowing sounds heard at the beginning, middle, or end of systole or diastole. They are caused by increased blood flow through a normal valve, forward flow through a stenotic valve or into a dilated vessel or chamber, or backward flow through a valve that fails to close.
A. Expected outcomes following completion of procedure: Heart rate is between 60 and 100 beats per minute (adolescent through adult) and without extra sounds or murmurs.
B. Expected outcomes following completion of procedure: Jugular veins distend when client lies supine and flatten when client is in sitting position
