Answer:
The client traction weights are resting on the floor.
Explanation:
The immediate action of the nurse should be to reapply the weights to give traction to the fracture. The health care provider must be notified that the weights were lying on the floor, and the client should be realigned in bed. The client's blood pressure is slightly elevated; this could be related to pain and muscle spasms resulting from lack of pressure to reduce the fracture. Oozing of clear fluid is normal, as is the capillary refill time.

Thyroxine is an important hormone released into the bloodstream by the thyroid gland in the body. When tyroxine is released into the blood stream, it moves through certain organs such as the kidney and liver, where most of it is changed to an active form known as triiodothyronine. Thyroxine perform important roles in brain development, heart and digestive functions, bone maintenance, controlling muscle and metabolic rate of the body.
