Question 1 of 5

A nurse is preparing to lift a box of personal items off the floor in a client's room. Which of the following actions should the nurse take to help prevent injury when lifting the box?

Correct Answer: B

Rationale:
Correct Answer: B. When lifting the box, keep it close to the body.


Rationale: Keeping the box close to the body reduces the strain on the back muscles and minimizes the risk of injury. When lifting objects, the closer they are to the body, the less force is required to lift them. This decreases the stress on the lower back and reduces the chance of muscle strain or injury. By keeping the box close, the nurse can utilize the strength of their legs and core muscles, rather than relying solely on the lower back, which is more prone to injury.

Summary of other choices:
A: Bending at the waist to pick up the box increases the risk of back injury as it puts excessive strain on the lower back.
C: Keeping the feet close together while lifting does not provide stability and balance, increasing the risk of losing balance and injury.
D: Relaxing the abdominal muscles while lifting can lead to poor posture and an increased risk of back strain and injury.
