Jawapan: A · Hold the cane in the right hand, on the stronger side
Mengapa ini jawapannya
The cane is held on the strong side and moved forward with the weak leg, so it shares the weight that the weak leg cannot take. It is kept close to the body for stability.
Jawapan
A · Hold the cane in the right hand, on the stronger side
2.Kawalan jangkitan & keselamatan pesakit
Jawapan: A · Airborne and contact precautions until all lesions are crusted
Mengapa ini jawapannya
Lesions over several areas on both sides mean disseminated zoster, which can spread through the air like chickenpox. Airborne and contact precautions are used until all lesions are dry and crusted. Localized zoster in an immunocompromised patient also needs airborne and contact precautions, but only until dissemination is ruled out.
