Answer: The partially dislocated radial head is documented as a <em>"Subluxation."</em>

Explanation:

Any type of partial dislocation is referred to as a subluxation. This can occur in a joint and even in an organ in the body. It is considered as structural displacement. A simple x-ray can diagnosis when a subluxation occurs. In the case listed above, it was in the shoulder. Symptoms of subluxation are visible swelling, pain in the area, unable to move the joint, and/or numbness and tingling. The subluxation may also be visible by a deformity in the shoulder area. Many times this can be fixed by using a splint, resting and using ice on the dislocated area, and elevating the arm. In some cases, surgery may be necessary, especially, if it occurs in the back.

How should the nurse proceed when instilling neomycin and polymyxin b sulfates and hydrocortisone optic suspension, two drops in
Aleksandr [31]

The nurse should verify the proper client and route. The rationale behind this is a nurse should monitor the five "Rs" of medication administration: right client, right drug, right dose, right route, and right time. The drops may be warmed to prevent pain or dizziness, but this act isn't important. An emesis basin would be used for irrigation of the ear. The client should be placed in the lateral position for five minutes, not semi-Fowler's position, to prevent the drops from draining.
