Brief Explanations
- Range of motion exercises are specifically designed to keep joints moving and mobile. Contractures are a condition where joints become fixed in a position. Constant movement is too general. Range of mobility is not the standard term for such exercises.
- Confusion can be a symptom of a urinary tract infection, especially in the elderly. Loss of range of motion is not related. Constipation is a digestive - related issue. Reddened skin is more related to skin problems.
- Encouraging a person to cough and take deep breaths helps to expand the lungs and prevent the pooling of secretions that can lead to pneumonia. Laying flat in bed (especially for eating or just resting) can increase the risk of aspiration and pneumonia.
