Practice Exercise 2 ( 5 Questions)

Question 1 of 5 :

Two days following a spinal cord injury, a patient asks continually about the extent of impairment that will result from the injury. What is the best response by the nurse?

A “You will have more normal function when spinal shock resolves and the reflex arc returns.”

B “The extent of your injury cannot be determined until the secondary injury to the cord is resolved.”

C “When your condition is more stable, MRI will be done to reveal the extent of the cord damage.”

D “Because long-term rehabilitation can affect the return of function, it will be years before we can tell what the complete effect will be.”
