The answer to question 1

body alignment
The term body alignment refers to the conditions of the joints, tendons, ligaments, and muscles in various body positions. When the body is aligned, whether standing, sitting, or lying, no excessive strain is placed on these structures.

The answer to question 2

cyanosis
Bluish (cyanosis) coloring of the skin is caused by hypoxia (late sign of decreased oxygen levels).

The abduction splint or pillow, used after hip replacement surgery, maintains the patient's legs in an abducted position. This permits the patient to be turned without changing the position of the healing limb, and prevents dislocation of the hip prosthesis.
