Question
when should you pull your patient off of their shoulder (the one contacting the table)?
a) after you go \pocket to pocket\
b) before you set the pelvis
c) at the beginning of the set up, before you flex their top leg (the one closest to the ceiling)
d) after you set the pelvis
In patient positioning for procedures (often in orthopedics or patient care), pulling the shoulder off the table is done early in setup to properly position the torso before manipulating the legs or pelvis. This step happens at the start, prior to flexing the top leg.
