Question 1 of 5

The physician directs the nurse to wrap the client's lower extremity with an elastic bandage. Where should the nurse begin applying the bandage?

Correct Answer: D

Rationale: Starting the elastic bandage at the metatarsals (the foot's midsection) ensures distal-to-proximal compression, promoting venous return and reducing swelling effectively. Beginning higher up, such as below the knee or above the ankle, may not adequately address swelling in the foot, and starting at the phalanges is too distal.
