Feedback:
The electroencephalography (EEG) department administers evoked-potential examinations, does specialized sleep studies, and monitors clients who have had seizures. The nurse should know that RT departments help in implementing measures prescribed by the primary healthcare provider for clients with respiratory and cardiopulmonary problems. The radiology department performs diagnostic x-ray studies to aid healthcare providers in determining the exact location and nature of disorders. The operating room (OR) and the post-anesthesia care unit (PACU) are concerned with the care of surgical clients immediately before, during, and after surgery.
