Answer 7
Circulation Movement and sensation are assessed in case of any injury. This tool is analyse the injured site by comparing it to the normal areas .This can be used to assess all 4 extremities.
In circulation 4 components are assessed like colour, capillary refill, temperature of the extremities and peripheral pulses. For movement, the motor abilities like moving limbs are assessed. Sensation to pain, signs of numbness are analysed.
Answer 8
The test is appropriate in both adults and pediatrics
Capillary reflex technique is done by raising the hand above the heart level and pressing the index finger in adults and thumb or toes in children, when the hand is released there is visible capillary refill which is less than 2 secs
Answer 9
Symptom is subjective in nature that means it is told by the patients , it reflects on what they actually suffer from. So , no symptom should be under rated because it is the patient's expression.
Nausea is the sensation to feel like vomiting, which only the patient can feel. So, it is a symptom.
Answer 10
Breaching the standards of care can result in creating harmful environment for the patient.in such instances, the outcome of the patient can deteriorate because of negligence of the health care workers.
Answer 11
Primary check in the assessment is a very crucial stage because it helps in identifying life threatening conditions so you can immediately take action to treat those conditions.
If such conditions are left untreated, then saving a life of patient will be very difficult. At times, delayed response can save life but to get back the patient with full movements will be difficult.
