Question 1 of 5

A nurse is caring for a client who has right-sided paralysis from a cerebral vascular accident (CVA). Which of the following interventions should the nurse implement?

Correct Answer: C

Rationale: The correct answer is C: Use a footboard to maintain dorsiflexion of the feet. This is important for preventing foot drop, a common issue with right-sided paralysis post-CVA. By maintaining dorsiflexion, the nurse helps prevent contractures and promotes proper alignment of the feet. A soft mattress (
A) does not address the specific issue of foot drop. Positioning soft pillows against the bottom of the feet (
B) may not provide adequate support and dorsiflexion. Crossing the client's legs at the ankles (
D) is contraindicated as it can lead to pressure ulcers and further complications.
