The nurse should question about the use of <u>heparin sodium</u> in the physician’s drug order to a hemorrhagic stroke patient.

Explanation:

A hemorrhagic stroke leads to impaired brain functioning due to bursting of a blood vessel and resultant bleeding in the brain.

When an anticoagulant like heparin is administered to a hemorrhagic stroke patient, it increases the risk of further bleeding from the weakened arteries.

Heparin is administered to reduce or remove any blood clots; however, as a blood thinner, it poses an increased risk of further bleeding or hemorrhage just related to the heparin itself. Blood clotting time should be monitored by coagulation tests while administering heparin-based drugs like heparin sodium.

Complications from heparin sodium can lead to adrenal, ovarian, or retroperitoneal hemorrhage.

The rights of the patient as the owner of the images are the exception to the patient before obtaining informed consent for dental radiographs.


Dental radiographs,
sometimes known as x-rays, are a crucial component of your dental care. They give your dentist a fuller picture of what's going on in your mouth than an oral examination alone.

Your dentist can detect diseases and developmental disorders using dental radiographs before they worsen. Early injury or infection discovery can help restrict or stop subsequent harm to other oral sites. Your dentist may be informed of changes in your hard and soft tissues through dental radiographs. Radiographs in youngsters enable the dentist to monitor the growth of the jawbone and teeth. Dental radiographs, like medical radiographs, let your dentist assess any facial and oral injuries you may have.
