Question

A nurse is determining which tasks to delegate. Which actions should a registered nurse perform while caring for a client in traction? Select all that apply.

Answer 1

The density of gold is 19.3 g/cm the density of iron pyrite is 5.0 g/cm if a nugget of iron pyrite and a nugget of gold each have a mass of 50 g, what can you conclude about the volume of each nugget

Answer 2

The registered nurse (RN) has to assure that the client is in proper body alignment to maintain effectiveness of the traction. It is the responsibility of the RN to assess for complications associated with immobility such as wound infection, constipation, and deep vein thrombosis. The RN has to teach the client about range-of-motion (ROM) exercises to help foster faster recovery. The licensed practical nurse (LPN) should pad the traction connections to prevent skin irritation. Unlicensed assistive personnel (UAP) should assist the client with passive and active ROM exercises as directed by the RN.
