A nurse is assessing a client who has a long arm cast. For which of the following findings should the nurse monitor when assessing for acute compartment syndrome?

A. Visitors are not completely prohibited, but their time should be limited and precautions followed, especially for children and pregnant individuals. Therefore, banning all visitors for 24 hours is unnecessary and overly restrictive.

B. Maintaining a distance of at least 3 feet from the radiation source helps reduce exposure, following the principle of distance in radiation safety. This is an appropriate and effective protective measure for the nurse.

C. Bed rest is typically required to prevent displacement of the sealed radiation device, but it is not specifically prescribed for a fixed duration like 72 hours. The duration depends on the treatment plan, so this statement is too rigid and not universally correct.

D. Dosimeter badges are worn by healthcare workers to measure occupational exposure, not by clients receiving radiation therapy. Therefore, this action is inappropriate for the client.

A. Compulsive attention to details: This behavior is more characteristic of obsessive-compulsive personality disorder rather than antisocial personality disorder.

B. Avoids interacting with others: Antisocial personality disorder is characterized by a disregard for and violation of the rights of others, but avoidance of social interaction is not a typical

feature.

C. Uses others for personal gain: This behavior aligns with the manipulative and exploitative tendencies often seen in individuals with antisocial personality disorder.

D. Socially awkward in group situations: While individuals with antisocial personality disorder may have difficulty forming meaningful relationships, they often have superficial charm and can be socially adept, so being socially awkward in group situations is less indicative of this disorder.
