Adolescent with a fiberglass cast for a fractured tibia.


Question 1 of 5

A nurse is caring for an adolescent client who has a newly applied fiberglass cast for a fractured tibia. What is the priority action for the nurse to take following this treatment?

Correct Answer: D

Rationale: The correct answer is D: Perform a neurovascular assessment. This is the priority action as it ensures adequate blood circulation and nerve function in the limb with the newly applied cast. This assessment helps in early detection of any circulation or nerve damage, preventing complications like compartment syndrome.

Explanation for other choices:
A: Explaining discharge instructions is important but not the priority immediately after applying the cast.
B: Placing the leg on pillow props is a good practice for elevation but not the priority.
C: Administering pain relief is important but not the priority over neurovascular assessment.
