Question 1 of 5

A nurse is caring for a client who is receiving heat applications using an aquathermia pad. Which of the following actions should the nurse take when applying the pad?

Correct Answer: D

Rationale: The correct answer is D: Stop the treatment if the client’s skin becomes red. This is important because redness indicates potential skin damage or burns due to excessive heat exposure. It is crucial to monitor the client's skin during heat application to prevent harm.
Choice A is incorrect because leaving the pad in place for a specific duration can lead to skin damage if the temperature is too high.
Choice B is incorrect as setting the pad's temperature too high can cause burns.
Choice C is incorrect as safety pins can cause injury or discomfort to the client.
Therefore, the correct action is to closely monitor the client's skin for any signs of redness and stop the treatment immediately if redness occurs to prevent further harm.
