Question 1

The patient presents to the emergency department with chest pain and collapses in the reception area before registering. Physicians and nurses rush to assist the patient. What type of consent protects these health care providers?
◦ Oral
◦ Implied
◦ Partial
◦ Expressed

Question 2

The patient scheduled for an above-the-knee amputation for a gangrenous toe received preoperative medication 20 minutes ago. When the transfer team arrives to take the patient to the operating suite, the nurse overhears the patient say, "I'll be so glad to get rid of my sore toe. I was afraid they would have to take my whole foot." What action should be taken by the nurse?
◦ Remind the patient that the surgery is to remove his lower leg, not just his toe.
◦ Check to see if the patient signed consent for the above-the-knee amputation.
◦ Continue the transfer, as the patient is not reliable since opioid medications have been administered.
◦ Stop the transfer and notify the surgeon of the patient's comment.
