Keep your right leg elevated above heart level. instruction should the nurse provide in client cast care .

Casts are often designed to keep you dry. An infection or skin irritability may result from a moist cast. Casts made of fiberglass or plaster with standard padding are not waterproof. Cover your child's cast with two layers of plastic and secure it with a rubber band or piece of duct tape to keep it dry during baths or showers.

How do you take care of a plaster cast?

  • Keep the plaster cast clean and dry at all times.
  • The cast usually dries completely in 48 hours. Allow it to dry naturally and keep it away from direct heat.
  • Avoid bumping or hitting the cast.
  • Do not paint the cast. This will close the pores of the plaster. Having friends decorate the cast using markers is OK.

Patrick has shoulder impingement syndrome. He has been referred to you by a physical therapist for strengthening of his shoulder
Vitek1552 [10]

The available options are:

a) Push-up plus off a wall → shoulder IR/ER → seated DB press

b) Shoulder IR/ER → push-up plus → seated DB press

c) Shoulder IR/ER → seated DB press → push-up plus

d) High-rep bench press → shoulder IR/ER → abdominal crunch

Answer:

A. Push-up plus off a wall -> shoulder IR/ER -> seated DB press

Explanation:

A push-up plus off a wall is an example of a closed chain exercise as the arm is fixated to a stationary surface.

It also make your shoulder blades to move freely, making serratus anterior stronger, a vital muscle that keeps scapula stable and helps it rotate upward. This in turn reduces shoulder impingement when push-ups plus off a wall is done.

Shoulder IR/ER also helps to correct the imbalance in the rotator muscles of the shoulder.

Also, seated DB press strengthens all muscles of the shoulder in a functional way.
