Answer:
D) "Metal pins will go through my skin to the bone."
Explanation:
Skeletal traction is used to stabilize the fractured or broken bone.In skeletal traction, metal rods or pins are used to apply continuous traction directly into the broken or fractured bone. Weights are applied using the system of weights, ropes, and pulleys to use the traction. Casts or splints are used when the traction is discontinued.
Answer:
b: Distress.
Explanation:
Distress, or bad stress, is likely to cause these signs.
There are four types of heat loss mechanisms: radiation, convection, conduction and evaporation.
Radiation is transfer of heat through electromagnetic waves through space
Conduction is a process by which heat is transferred from the hot area of a solid object to the cool area.
Convection is a process by which heat is transferred from one part of a
fluid (liquid or gas) to another by the bulk movement of the fluid
itself.
Evaporation - when sweating promotes heat loss.
