The practical nurse (PN) is reviewing a client's recent ophthalmic screening test results. Findings of optic neuropathy, loss of peripheral vision, and increased intraocular pressure are consistent with which medical condition?

This is the observation that indicates that the UAPs need additional information about the turning procedure because it is incorrect and may cause complications for the client. The client who had a hip arthroplasty with prosthesis placement should not keep both legs straight and together while turning because this may cause dislocation of the prosthesis, nerve damage, or bleeding. The client should keep the affected leg slightly abducted and supported with pillows or an abduction device.

A. An abduction pillow is placed between the client's legs when positioned correctly and does not indicate a need for additional information. This helps to maintain proper alignment and prevent dislocation of the prosthesis.

C. A turning sheet is used under the client for turning and repositioning is correct and does not indicate a need for additional information. This helps to reduce friction and shear forces on the skin and prevent pressure ulcers.

D. The UAPs keep their backs straight and knees bent when moving the client is correct and does not indicate a need for additional information. This helps to protect their own musculoskeletal health and prevent injuries.

The correct answer is choice B. Notify the charge nurse of the client's concerns about surgery. Choice A rationale:

Reminding the client that the consent has already been obtained does not address the client's current fears and uncertainty about undergoing the surgery. It may come across as dismissive and unsupportive of the client's emotional needs.

Choice B rationale:

This is the correct answer because notifying the charge nurse of the client's concerns about surgery allows the nursing team to provide the necessary support and address the client's emotional needs appropriately. The charge nurse can assess the client's anxiety level, discuss the procedure, and involve the healthcare provider if needed to ensure the client is well-

informed and comfortable with their decision. Choice C rationale:

Documenting the client's expressed concerns about the surgery is essential for accurate documentation but does not provide the immediate support and intervention the client may require.

Choice D rationale:

Encouraging the client to continue with the scheduled surgery without addressing their fears and uncertainty may not be appropriate. The client's emotional well-being should be a priority, and they should feel supported in their decision-making process.
