Correct Answer: C

Rationale: Factory workers are at risk of developing Carpal Tunnel Syndrome due to repetitive hand movements involved in their work. This condition occurs when the median nerve, which runs from the forearm into the palm of the hand, becomes pressed or squeezed at the wrist. Plantar fasciitis (choice A) is a condition affecting the foot, not typically associated with factory work. Osteomalacia (choice B) is a softening of the bones due to a lack of vitamin D or calcium, not directly related to repetitive stress in factory work. Osteoporosis (choice D) is a condition characterized by weak and brittle bones, usually associated with aging or hormonal changes rather than repetitive stress injuries.

Correct Answer: B

Rationale: Acute compartment syndrome is the correct answer. It involves increased pressure within muscles, leading to decreased blood flow and tissue damage. Venous thromboembolism (Choice A) is a condition where a blood clot forms in a vein, usually in the leg. Fat embolism syndrome (Choice C) occurs when fat globules enter the bloodstream and block blood vessels. Hemorrhage (Choice D) refers to bleeding, which can occur with fractures but does not specifically involve increased pressure leading to decreased circulation as in acute compartment syndrome.

Correct Answer: D

Rationale: Touching the dropper to the eye contaminates it and can lead to infection.

Correct Answer: C

Rationale: The correct answer is C: 90 degrees. In a high-Fowler's position, the client's head of the bed is raised to a 90-degree angle. This positioning helps improve breathing and facilitates eating and talking. Choice A, 15 degrees, is incorrect as it is not high enough to be considered a high-Fowler's position. Choice B, 0 degrees, is incorrect as it represents a flat or supine position. Choice D, 30 degrees, is also incorrect as it does not meet the criteria for a high-Fowler's position.

Correct Answer: A

Rationale: Speaking slowly and clearly while facing the client improves communication with hearing-impaired clients.
