Applying pressure in order to halt the bleeding must be our initial action. A femur fracture could be examined by the nurse on the patient.

A common message given by nurses is that each person's distal femur fracture is unique. When the nurse examines the bone, it may shatter transversely down its length or it may split into several fragments. The surface of the bone can get divided into a few (or many) pieces by these femur fractures, which can occasionally extend into the knee joint. The term "intra-articular femur fractures" refers to these kinds of fractures. It may be more challenging to treat intra-articular fractures since they harm the bone's cartilage surface, according to the nurses.

At rest, most of the body's blood supply resides in the pulmonary loop.<br> a. True<br> b. False
Dmitry_Shevchenko [17]

Answer:

The answer to the statement: At rest, most of the body´s blood supply resides in the pulmonary loop, would be, B: False.

Explanation:

The circulatory system never stops working. Pumping of blood, transportation of oxygen, nutrients and water to and from tissues is a process that does not end, even during sleep. The only moment when this process does not happen, is in death. However, a good question is, where does the blood go, or stay, when the body is not active, like for example, during sleep. And the answer is that most of it will rest on the systemic veins and venules and will slowly circulate back to the heart, but at a much lower rate than when the body activates itself. However, what is not true is that blood will reside mostly in the pulmonary loop, because this loop does not have the capacity to store that much blood.

The nurse suspects that an older adult client has a basal cell carcinoma. what finding did the nurse use to make this clinical d
777dan777 [17]

The nurse suspects that an older adult patient has features of basal cell carcinoma appearing in form of a small dome-shaped lesion with a pearly surface on the face.

What is Basal cell carcinoma?

The most prevalent type of skin cancer that is not melanoma is basal cell carcinoma (BCC).

  • It is a tumour that causes localized damage and has a variety of clinical and histological characteristics.
  • When viewed at low power magnification, a basaloid epithelial tumour emerging from the epidermis is the primary characteristic of basal cell carcinoma.
  • Normally, the palisade-like basaloid epithelium forms a fissure from the surrounding tumour stroma.

The nuclei grow congested in the centre, with scattered mitotic figures and visible necrotic bodies.

The presence of a mucinous stroma serves as a helpful distinguishing factor from other basaloid cutaneous tumours. Additionally, some tumours may exhibit foci of regression, which are regions of eosinophilic stroma devoid of basaloid nests.

Hence, the answer is a small dome-shaped lesion with a pearly surface on the face.
