Question 1 of 5

A client with a broken femur is in a traction splint in bed. Which of the following interventions is NOT part of caring for this client?

Correct Answer: C

Rationale: When caring for a client with a broken femur in a traction splint, turning the client to a side-lying position is not recommended. This client is at risk of skin breakdown and complications due to the injury, making it important to prevent unnecessary movement that may increase the risk of injury or discomfort. Palpating the temperature of both feet helps in assessing circulation, evaluating pulses bilaterally ensures perfusion to the extremities, and relieving heel pressure by placing a pillow under the foot helps in reducing pressure points and preventing complications like pressure ulcers.
Therefore, the correct answer is turning the client to a side-lying position as it is not a recommended intervention in this scenario.
