A nurse is preparing a client for discharge following an abdominal hysterectomy for fibroids. After providing discharge teaching
lesantik [10]

Answer:

Answer is option B -  "I should shower rather than take a tub bath."

Explanation:

Abdominal hysterectomy is the surgical removal of a part or all of the uterus by making an incision in the lower abdomen. After the surgery, the patient normally spends 2 - 5 days in the hospital and takes at least 4 - 6 weeks to get completely better. Some of the major discharge instructions are;

  • Drink enough water and eat smaller meals that are rich in proteins and fiber and plenty of fruits and vegetables daily. This helps with the healing process and prevents constipation.
  • Avoid swimming or taking a tub bath, but can take showers.
  • Dressings over the incision should be removed daily and keep the wound area clean.
  • Avoid inserting anything such as tampons into the vagina for 6 weeks after the surgery.
  • Avoid all heavy activity including strenuous household activities, weightlifting, and other strenuous exercises. Short walking and light household chores can be done.
  • Avoid driving if the patient is taking narcotic pain-relieving medicines. Long trips in vehicles or airplanes are not recommended for 4 weeks after the surgery.

miss Akunina [59]

Answer:

a. True

Explanation:

Since , abductions, particularly the minimus and gluteus medius , are active on the side of the leg which is in contact with the ground . This is to avoid the tendency of gravity to cause the downward motion of the hip on the opposite side . In addition, the lateral muscle and  paraspinal muscles  of the trunk are active on the side of the swinging leg to avoid the downward motion of iliac crest on side .

Cells must be alive to use energy and do work dose passive transport occur in a cell that is dead? Why or why not?
Orlov [11]

Answer:

<h3>Yes, Passive transport can occur in dead cells.</h3>

Explanation:

For passive transport to occur, a concentration gradient has to be formed across a permeable or semi-permeable membrane. If the cell membrane of the dead cell, which is a semipermeable membrane, is intact and a concentration gradient has formed on both sides, passive transport can occur.

A concentration gradient is the difference in the concentration of solute molecules  across the membrane. Passive transport will allow solute molecules to travel from the higher concentration of the solute to the lower concentration across a membrane till equilibrium is reached, that is, both the sides of the membrane has equal concentration of the solute.

The transport of the solvent can occur as well, from higher concentration to lower concentration.
