1) Your patient is an 82 year old woman who, according to her neighbor, fell on the ice while in her yard trying to pick up her newspaper. She is in the supine position on a stretcher, is asthenic and kyphotic. She is alert and responsive and not appearing to be in excessive pain.

Describe in detail how you would complete the radiographs.
2) You have a 74 year old man with a diagnosis of dementia. He is running a fever and suffering from dyspnea. His physician has ordered a chest x-ray to rule out pneumonia. The patient is in a wheelchair with a posey vest tied to the back of the wheelchair and is on oxygen with an O2 tank attached to the wheelchair. When you bring him into your x-ray room and describe what you are going to do, he states that he does not want to have anything done and becomes combative. How would you handle the situation and obtain the necessary images?

How would you approach this situation?
