A nurse is assessing a client who has delirium due to a febrile illness. Which of the following findings should the nurse expect?

A. Adjusting the straps on the harness once per week is not recommended. The straps should only be adjusted by a healthcare provider to ensure proper fit and alignment, as incorrect adjustments can compromise the effectiveness of the treatment.

B. Using ultra-thin diapers applied over the straps is incorrect. Diapers should be placed under the harness to prevent soiling and maintain the harness's effectiveness. Placing diapers over the straps can interfere with proper positioning.

C. Maintaining the child in a prone position while the harness is in place is not necessary. The Pavlik harness is designed to keep the hips in a flexed and abducted position, and the infant can remain in various positions that are comfortable and safe.

D. Gently massaging the skin under the straps once per day is correct. This helps prevent skin irritation and promotes circulation. Guardians should also check for redness or irritation and ensure the harness fits properly to avoid pressure injuries.

A. Administering furosemide may also be appropriate for managing heart failure symptoms, but the priority action based on the client's condition is to withhold digoxin.

B. The client's vital signs indicate bradycardia (pulse 52/min), which is a common adverse effect of digoxin, especially in the setting of heart failure. Withholding digoxin is necessary to prevent further exacerbation of bradycardia and potential toxicity.

C. Withholding spironolactone may be considered if there are concerns about electrolyte imbalances, but it is not the priority action in this scenario.

D. Administering ferrous sulfate is not indicated based on the client's chart findings; there is no indication of anemia or iron deficiency.
