Extract:


Question 1 of 5

A nurse is caring for an older adult client who is at risk for developing pressure ulcers. Which of the following interventions should the nurse use to help maintain the integrity of the client's skin? Select all.

Correct Answer: A, D

Rationale: The correct interventions (A and
D) are crucial for preventing pressure ulcers in older adults. Elevating the head of the bed at 30 degrees helps reduce pressure on the sacrum and heels, key areas prone to pressure ulcers. Sitting on a gel cushion distributes pressure evenly, reducing the risk of skin breakdown.

Incorrect

Choices:
B: Massaging bony prominences can increase friction and shear forces, leading to skin breakdown.
C: Cornstarch can create a moist environment, increasing the risk of maceration and skin breakdown.
E: Repositioning every 3 hours is insufficient for preventing pressure ulcers, as more frequent repositioning is needed to reduce prolonged pressure on the skin.
