A

stockings that go up to the thigh/knee; made to assist valves of lower extremities to return blood back up to the heart

21
Q

What is meant by footdrop?

A

keep the patient at a dorsal flexion (the feet) position when in bed to prevent footdrop

22
Q

What is the physiology of sleep based on?

A

circadian rhythms - Affected by light, temperature, social activities, and work routines

23
Q

What is chronotherapy?

A

field of study on how medication and sleep patterns evolve

24
Q

What is night shift chrono-disruption?

A

biological rhythm of sleep that gets synchronized with other body functions

25
Q

Facts about the sleep cycle:

A
  • stages 1-3 = 5%-50% is considered light sleep
  • stages 3-4 = 10% sleep with deep sleep states
  • REM = 20%-25% of nightly sleep time (vitals adjust to sleep conditions)

** older adults rarely get to delta sleep state (stages 3 and 4) **

26
Q

What are some sleep disorders?

A
  • Insomnia: difficulty falling asleep affects 35% of pop. women suffer more (depression); caused by stress, shift work, etc.
  • Obstructive Sleep Apnea: muscles in throat and neck relax and block airway causing breathing to start and stop (15x per hour for 10-20 sec. up tp 2 minutes) = CPAP
  • Hypersomnia: excessive sleep during the day (genetic)
  • Narcolepsy: excessive day time sleepiness with frequent urge to sleep in the day time; 70% develop into catapalipsy (loss of muscle tone) they can fall asleep doing ANYTHING!
  • Shift Work Disorder: break in circadian rhythm
  • Jet Lag Disorder: travel long distance across time zones
  • Restless Leg Syndrome (RLS): tingling sensation in legs when tired; 15% of pop. affected
  • Sleep Deprivation: occurs as a result of depleted REM
27
Q

When should caffeine be restricted to get adequate sleep?

A

4-5 hours before bedtime (also, eliminate alcohol and fluids)

28
Q

What are the top 3 nutritional sources for tryptophan?

A
  • whole milk
  • milk (2%)
  • canned tuna
29
Q

How many times should a ROM exercise be conducted on each side?

A

2-5 times

30
Q

What are the ROM exercises for the bilateral arms?

A
  • Shoulder Abduction and Adduction; Internal and External Rotation
  • Elbow Flexion and Extension
  • Wrist Supination and Pronation; Flexion, extension and hyperextension
  • Finger Flexion, extension, abduction and adduction
31
Q

What are the ROM exercises for the bilateral legs?

A
  • Hip Abduction and Adduction; Flexion and Extension; internal and external rotation
  • Knee Flexion and Extension
  • Ankle dorsiflexion and plantar flexion; and inversion and eversion
  • Toe Flexion/ Extension/ abduction/ adduction
32
Q

What are the steps to turn/move a patient in bed?

A
  • Elevated bed to a comfortable working Height
  • If Patient is not able to assist, request assistance
  • If Patient is able to help, encourage their help
  • Use a draw sheet or similar Item to assist with repositioning to avoid Shearing injuries
  • Straighten sheets and pads when finished, remove damp/soiled linens. Lower bed and place call light within patient’s reach.
33
Q

What should be considered when transferring from bed/chair/wheelchair?

A
  • Raise bed and stretcher to comfortable working height
  • Ensure all wheels are locked
  • Transfer to bed or stretcher
  • Will depend on if the patient is alert and able to assist with transfer
  • Will generally have more than one caregiver
  • If patient is awake and able to move, then they would “scoot” between bed and stretcher with standby assist

** use a gait belt, Have the patient Dangle legs over side of bed before attempting to stand. Keep your feet about shoulder width apart, back straight, bend at the knees. Block patient’s foot with your foot to help avoid sliding **

34
Q

A
  • Hold crutches about 12” in front of and to the side of each foot
  • 4 pt gait- right crutch-> left foot->Left crutch ->Right foot
  • 3 pt gait- move affected leg and both crutches, then strong leg
  • 2 pt gait- Left crutch and right foot at same time, then Right crutch and left foot at same time
  • Swing gate- move both crutches forward, then lift legs and swing through
35
Q

A
  • hold the cane close to the body on the strong side
  • advance the cane->then the strong leg (while weak leg is supported by cane)
