The nurse should place the patient in lateral recovery position who is still drowsy from anesthesia and has been vomiting.

The lateral position, one of the four standard surgical patient positions, is used for treatments that need access to one side of the patient's body. The patient is in the lateral position, lying on one side. Back operations, surgery on the lower extremities, thoracic surgeries, ear, nose, and throat (ENT) surgeries, and kidney surgeries are a few typical procedures that may call for the patient to be positioned in the lateral position.

Surgery access to the thorax, kidney, retroperitoneal area, and hip which has anesthesia is performed from the lateral position. The patient will lie on their left or right side depending on which side of the body is being operated on.

Answer:

I think that it is A. Smooth Muscles but i could be wrong

Explanation:

Smooth muscle, also called involuntary muscle, muscle that shows no cross stripes under microscopic magnification. It consists of narrow spindle-shaped cells with a single, centrally located nucleus. Smooth muscle tissue, unlike striated muscle, contracts slowly and automatically. (Found on g o o g l e)

Cardiac muscle (or myocardium) makes up the thick middle layer of the heart. It is one of three types of muscle in the body, along with skeletal and smooth muscle. The myocardium is surrounded by a thin outer layer called the epicardium (AKA visceral pericardium) and an inner endocardium.

Skeletal muscles are attached to bones by tendons, and they produce all the movements of body parts in relation to each other. Unlike smooth muscle and cardiac muscle, skeletal muscle is under voluntary control.
