Question 1 of 5

A nurse is caring for a client who has right-sided paralysis following a cerebrovascular accident. Which of the following prescriptions should the nurse anticipate to prevent a plantar flexion contracture of the affected extremity?

Correct Answer: C

Rationale: The correct answer is C: Ankle-foot orthotic. An ankle-foot orthotic helps maintain the foot in a neutral position, preventing plantar flexion contracture. This device supports the foot, keeping it dorsiflexed and preventing the toes from pointing downward. A sequential compression device (choice
A) is used for preventing deep vein thrombosis. An abduction splint (choice
B) is used for hip dislocation or subluxation. Continuous passive motion machine (choice
D) is used for joint mobilization post-surgery. Other choices are not relevant to preventing plantar flexion contracture in this scenario.
