Explanation

Assessment Findings	Sprain	Fracture	Dislocation
Ecchymosis	✅	✅	✅
Pain level	✅	✅	✅
Edema	✅	✅	✅
Sensation	✅	✅

Rationale:

Ecchymosis (bruising):

Sprain: Common due to soft tissue damage.

Fracture: Frequently present due to bone and soft tissue injury.

Dislocation: Bruising often accompanies joint dislocation.

Pain level:

Sprain: Moderate pain, often exacerbated by movement.

Fracture: Pain is typically sharp and worsens with movement or weight-bearing.

Dislocation: Severe pain due to misalignment of the joint.

Edema:

Sprain: Common due to inflammation from ligament injury.

Fracture: Swelling is typical around the fracture site.

Dislocation: Edema occurs due to joint misalignment and tissue trauma.

Sensation (tingling):

Sprain: Nerve compression or irritation may cause tingling.

Fracture: Tingling can result from nerve involvement or swelling near the fracture site.

Dislocation: Tingling is less common unless nerve damage occurs, which is more serious and often leads to numbness or motor impairment.

A. Encourage the client to drink low-protein supplements. B. Provide the client with cold foods rather than hot foods. C. Serve the client's largest meal in the evening. D. Tell the client to drink two glasses of water with meals.

Correct Answer is B

Explanation

A. Low-protein supplements are not recommended; high-protein, high-calorie foods are encouraged to maintain nutrition.

B. Cold foods are often more tolerable for clients experiencing anorexia, as they are less odorous and may help reduce nausea.

C. Serving the largest meal in the evening is inappropriate as appetite typically decreases later in the day; it’s better to serve meals when the client feels most hungry.

D. Drinking large amounts of fluid with meals can lead to early satiety, reducing overall intake.
