Musculoskeletal System - Blackboard questions - CORRECT ANSWERS ---
812. A client with cancer is scheduled for a bone scan to determine the
presence of metastasis. The nurse evaluates that the teaching before the
scheduled bone scan is effective when the client states that:
1. "X-rays will be taken to identify where I may have lost calcium from my
bones."
2. "Portions of my bone marrow will be removed and examined for cell
composition."
3. "A radioactive chemical will be injected into my vein that will destroy
cancer cells present in my bones."
4. "A substance of low radioactivity will be injected into my vein and my
body inspected by an instrument to detect where it is deposited." -
CORRECT ANSWERS Ans: 4
4. A bone scan maps the uptake of a bone-seeking radioactive isotope; an
increased uptake is seen in metastatic bone disease, osteosarcoma,
osteomyelitis, and certain fractures.
813. A nurse explains to a client that stimulation of calcium deposition in
the bone after a distal femoral fracture is best achieved by:
1. Resting the extremity
2. Weight-bearing activity
3. Normal aging processes
4. Ingesting foods high in ca - CORRECT ANSWERS Ans: 2
2. Weight bearing and the use of antigravity muscles stimulate bone
formatiqn or osteoblastic function.

4. Circumduction - CORRECT ANSWERS Ans: 2
2. The fingers are flared out in the extended, abducted position.
815. A male college basketball player comes to the infirmary complaining of
a "click" in his knee when walking. He states that it occasionally gives way
when he is running and sometimes locks. He does not recall any specific
injury. Which condition should the nurse anticipate that the practitioner
primarily will consider when determining the diagnostic tests to order?
1. Cracked patella
2. Ruptured Achilles tendon
3. Injured cartilage in the knee
4. Stress fracture of the tibial plateau - CORRECT ANSWERS Ans: 3
3. These adaptations are consistent with a torn cartilage; this injury is
common among basketball players.
816. A client is scheduled for arthroscopic knee surgery and asks the nurse
about the procedure. The statement by the nurse that best describes the
procedure is:
1. "It is surgical repair of a joint under direct visualization using an
arthroscope."
2. "It is a radiological procedure that will help diagnose the extent of the
knee injury."
3. "The procedure will determine the type of treatments the surgeon will
prescribe."
4. "You will be anesthetized so that you do not remember anything about
the procedure." - CORRECT ANSWERS Ans: 1
1. This describes the procedure in which the surgeon uses a scope to
visualize and operate on the knee.

817. The practitioner orders non-weight bearing with crutches for a client
with a leg injury. Before arnbulation is begun, the most important activity
the nurse should teach the client to facilitate walking with crutches is:
1. Sitting up in a chair to help strengthen back muscles
2. Keeping the unaffected leg in extension and abduction
3. Exercising the triceps, finger flexors, and elbow extensors
4. Using a trapeze frequently to strengthen the bicep muscles - CORRECT
ANSWERS Ans: 3
3 These sets of muscles are used in crutch walking and therefore need
strengthening.
818. A client with impaired balance is using a walker to provide support
when ambulating. While observing the client transferring from a sitting to a
standing position and using the walker, the nurse evaluates that further
teaching is required when the client:
1. Slides toward the edge of the seat before standing
2. Holds both handles of the walker while rising to the standing position
3. Moves forward into the walker after transferring from sitting to standing
4. Stands in place holding on to the walker for at least 30 seconds before
walking - CORRECT ANSWERS Ans: 2
2. Because of the angle of force applied to a walker when a person uses it to
move from a sitting to a standing position, the walker can become unstable
and tip over. The arms of the chair should be used for support when rising
from a sitting position.
819. A client with multiple injuries from an automobile collision is now
permitted out of bed to a chair but is not permitted to bear weight on the
lower extremities. When using a mechanical lift to transfer the client, it is
essential that the nurse:

- CORRECT ANSWERS Ans: 1
1. Folding the arms across the chest maintains both arms in a safe position
during the transfer.
820. A nurse performs full range of motion on a client's extremities. When
putting an ankle through range of motion, the nurse must perform:
1. Flexion, extension, and rotation
2. Abduction, flexion, adduction, and extension
3. Pronation, supination, rotation, and extension
4. Dorsiflexion, plantar flexion, eversion, and inversion - CORRECT
ANSWERS Ans: 4
4. These movements include all possible range of motion for the ankle joint.
821. An x-ray film of a client's arm reveals a comminuted fracture of the
radial bone. The nurse expects that with a comminuted fracture:
1. Bone protrudes through a break in the skin
2. The bone has broken into several fragments and the skin is intact
3. The bone is broken into two parts and the skin mayor may not be broken
4. Splintering has occurred on one side of the bone and bending on the
other - CORRECT ANSWERS Ans: 2
2. In a comminuted fracture, the bone is splintered or crushed.
