Correct Answer is D

Explanation

A. The superior vena cava is responsible for returning deoxygenated blood from the upper body to the heart and is not directly involved in myocardial ischemia.
B. The carotid artery supplies blood to the brain and is not the primary focus in the context of myocardial infarction.
C. The pulmonary artery carries deoxygenated blood from the heart to the lungs and is not involved in coronary circulation.
D. The coronary arteries supply blood to the heart muscle itself. Ischemia during a myocardial infarction occurs when these arteries are blocked or narrowed, leading to a lack of blood flow and oxygen to the heart tissue.

A. Atelectasis B. Joint contractures C. Pressure ulcers D. Renal calculi

Correct Answer is B

Explanation

A. Atelectasis is prevented primarily through deep breathing exercises and respiratory interventions, not passive ROM.
B. Passive ROM and splinting help prevent joint contractures by maintaining joint mobility and alignment, so the absence of contractures indicates successful prevention.
C. Pressure ulcers are avoided through regular repositioning and skin care rather than passive ROM alone.
D. Renal calculi are primarily prevented through hydration and diet, not passive ROM or splinting.
