The nurse is conducting a preoperative assessment and interview on a client who is scheduled for elective surgery today. The client has a history of morbid obesity, diabetes, hypertension, and atrial fibrillation. The client reports taking insulin, metoprolol, and warfarin every day. What priority information will the nurse obtain from the client to ensure safety during the intraoperative period?

Question 14 A simply supported beam carries its own weight and a centrically positioned concentrated live load as shown. The beam is 10” wide and 24” deep. The theoretical moment capacity of the beam is 100 k-ft. Dependable (reliable) strengths, probable strengths, and over strengths in shear and moment are obtained by factoring the ideal (theoretical) strengths by the appropriate factors ϕ, ϕp, and ϕo, respectively. These factors are summarized below. Factor Shear Moment Dependable (reliable) strength (ϕ) 0.73 0.85 Probable strength (ϕp) 1.35 1.21 Over-strength (ϕo) 1.55 1.39 For the highest level of protection against shear failure, compute the minimum theoretical shear strength required to ensure that flexural failure precedes shear failure. You may use the load factors recommended by ACI for dead load and live loads (i.e., 1.2 and 1.6, respectively).
