Select all that apply:

1. Assess and document the behavior that requires continued use of restraints.

2. Tie the restraints in quick-release knots.

3. Tie the restraints to the side rails of the bed.

4. Ask the client if he needs to go to the bathroom and provide range-of-motion exercises every 2 hours.

5. Position the vest restraints so that the straps are crossed in the back.

Seen this before 1,2 ,4

which of the following should the nurse expect to be part of the care plan for a crohn's patient?

a. lactulose therapy

b. high fiber diet

c. high protein milkshake

d. antidiarreheal medication

e. coticosteriod therapy

feel free to post more sata's:specs:

i will go with d,and e

my rationale :)

with crohn's disease, diarrhea and colicky abdominal pain are common symptoms. antidiarrheas decrease gi motility

then drug therapy for crohn's include coticosteriod therapy
