A client is brought into the emergency department for an overdose of morphine. The client has a respiratory rate of 5 to 8 breaths per minute. Which of the following ABG results would the nurse expect to see?

A. External rotation of the hip involves rotating the thigh outward away from the midline of the body. This movement occurs in the hip joint. External rotation is a component of hip range of motion.

B. Extension of the hip involves moving the thigh backward, straightening the leg from a flexed position. This movement also occurs in the hip joint. Extension is part of the hip's range of motion.

C. Adduction of the hip involves moving the thigh toward or across the midline of the body. It brings the leg closer to the midline. Adduction is another movement that is part of the hip's range of motion.

E. Flexion of the hip involves bringing the thigh toward the abdomen or bending the leg. It is a movement where the angle between the thigh and the abdomen decreases. Flexion is a fundamental movement of the hip joint.

D. Supination is a movement primarily associated with the forearm and hand, involving turning the palm upward or facing forward. It is not a movement of the hip joint. Supination is not correct in the context of hip range of motion.

A. By actively listening, the nurse shows empathy and a willingness to understand the client's perspective. Understanding significant events like a cancer diagnosis can help the nurse better anticipate the client's emotional and psychological needs.

B. This action shows support and encouragement for the client's achievements in managing their condition. It demonstrates the nurse's awareness of the client's efforts and competence in self-care. While it is positive reinforcement and supportive, it focuses more on the client's physical abilities rather than a deeper understanding of their personal experiences or emotions.

C. This action shows attentiveness to the client's physical comfort and emotional well-being. Offering a back rub during a bed bath can be soothing and comforting, addressing both physical and emotional needs. It demonstrates a caring approach to providing care that considers the client's comfort and relaxation.

D. Eye contact is an important non-verbal communication skill that conveys attentiveness and respect. It helps establish a connection and rapport between the nurse and the client. While maintaining eye contact is important for effective communication and building trust, it alone does not necessarily illustrate knowing the client in terms of understanding their personal experiences or emotions.
