A 35-year-old male patient came to ENT clinic with purulent discharge in the right ear after foreign body removed two months ago. The nurse examined his middle ear using otoscope to assess the conditions of tympanic membrane. What could be the most likely assessment finding of this patient? a. Perforation and cholesteatoma b. Appear dull and has air bubbles c. Red and inflamed d. Pearly gray and bulged to outside A 55-year-old male patient with diagnosis of visual distortion secondary to refractive errors was admitted to ophthalmologic unit. His past medical history revealed corneal repair after traumatic eye injury. The nurse took admission assessment to verify the diagnosis of the patient. What is the most likely assessment finding which confirms the diagnosis of this patient? a. Photophobia b. Excessive tear c. Blurred vision d. Recurrent headache

Answer 1

For the first question, the most likely assessment finding for the 35-year-old male patient with purulent discharge in the right ear after foreign body removal would be:a. Perforation and cholesteatomaPurulent discharge in the ear after foreign body removal suggests an infection or inflammation in the middle ear. The tympanic membrane (eardrum) may show signs of perforation (a hole or tear) and cholesteatoma (a benign growth of skin cells in the middle ear). These findings are consistent with the patient's symptoms and history.For the second question, the most likely assessment finding that confirms the diagnosis of visual distortion secondary to refractive errors in the 55-year-old male patient would be:c. Blurred visionRefractive errors, such as myopia (nearsightedness), hyperopia (farsightedness), or astigmatism, can cause visual distortion or blurred vision. The patient's past medical history of corneal repair after a traumatic eye injury may have contributed to the development of refractive errors. Blurred vision is a common symptom of refractive errors and confirms the diagnosis of visual distortion in this patient.
