ATI Medical Surgical Nursing, Care of Male Patients with Reproductive Problems
Document Content and Description Below
. The nurse is assisting a client with limited mobility into position for examination of his prostate gland. How does the nurse best assist the client? a. Assist the client to bend over the examin... ation table. b. Hold the client up as he bends over the bedside table. c. Help the client lie down in a side-lying fetal position. d. Assist the client to lie in a prone position. ANS: C A side-lying fetal position will be easiest for this client to assume so that the examination can proceed. It will be too difficult for him, as well as for the nurse, to attempt to stand up and lean over the examination table or bedside table. Placing the client in a prone position will not allow the prostate to be accessed as easily as placing him in a side-lying fetal position.
