Question 1 of 5
A nurse is reinforcing teaching with a client about the prevention of stress injuries. Which of the following instructions should the nurse include?
Correct Answer: D
Rationale: Keep your knees in a locked position when standing for prolonged periods.' This instruction is incorrect. Keeping knees locked can lead to muscle fatigue and increased risk of injury during prolonged standing. 'Bend at the waist when lifting a heavy object.' This instruction is incorrect. Bending at the waist during lifting can strain the lower back and increase the risk of back injuries. 'Keep your feet close together when lifting a heavy object.' This instruction is incorrect. Keeping feet close together can make the base unstable and increase the risk of falling or losing balance during lifting. 'When lifting a heavy object, keep it close to your body.' Correct. Keeping the heavy object close to the body while lifting helps reduce strain on the back and minimizes the risk of injury. This technique allows the body’s core muscles to better support the weight.
