Title: Family members are optimistic about a comatose patient’s recovery because the pa Post by: nurse2mrow on Sep 6, 2014 Family members are optimistic about a comatose patient’s recovery because the patient’s eyes open and the patient appears to be awake at times. Which statement by the nurse to the family is appropriate?
a. “The behavior is only a reflex and does not indicate improvement in the comatose condition.” b. “Sleep-wake cycles are indicators of recovery and a sign that the brain function is improving.” c. “When patients begin to recover from a coma, the first behaviors seen are those of wakefulness and opening the eyes.” d. “The part of the brain responsible for arousal is not injured, but the wakefulness does not indicate improvement in higher brain centers.” Title: Re: Family members are optimistic about a comatose patient’s recovery because the pa Post by: padre on Sep 24, 2014 Content hidden
