b. Omit all citrus food for 12 hours before the procedure

4. The nurse instructs the patient who is to have a unicompartmental knee replacement that a
major advantage of this partial knee replacement is that:
a. the patient will be up and walking 2 to 3 hours after the operation.
b. the kneecap is completely removed.
c. the procedure is especially helpful in the treatment of rheumatoid arthritis.
, d. a small titanium disk replaces the worn cartilage.
ANS: A
Unicompartmental knee arthroplasty is also referred to as partial knee replacement in which
the worn cartilage is replaced with a plastic disk. It is not as invasive as a full knee
replacement and does not disturb the kneecap so that the patient can be up and walking in 2 to
3 hours after surgery. It is not recommended for RA patients.

5. A patient who has had a right below the knee amputation continues to complain of unpleasant
sensation in the right foot. What can the nurse explain about this “phantom pain”?
a. It only exists in the mind.
b. It is a complication following an amputation and can be clarified by the surgeon.
c. It is related to the severed nerves that are still sending messages to the brain.
d. It occurs when the person becomes focused on the loss of the limb.
ANS: C
Phantom pain (pain felt in the missing extremity as if it were still present) may occur and be
frightening to the patient. Phantom pain occurs because the nerve tracts that register pain in
the amputated area continue to send a message to the brain (this is normal).

6. The patient that has a bipolar hip replacement following an intracapsular fracture has an order
to be turned every 2 hours. The nurse understands that the correct nursing intervention is to
keep the legs:
a. together so they do not separate while turning.
b. flexed to stabilize the prosthesis.
c. abducted so the prosthesis does not become dislocated.
d. adducted to prevent additional pain for the patient with turning.
ANS: C
Nursing interventions also involve postoperative maintenance of leg abduction by using an
abduction splint for 7 to 10 days to prevent dislocation of the prosthesis.
