A nurse is collecting data on a client.
Which of the following findings increase the client's risk of a pressure injury?

Choice A rationale:

Using small ice cubes is not necessary when applying an ice pack. The size of the ice does not affect the therapeutic effect of the cold therapy.

Choice B rationale:

It is not necessary to fill the pack and refreeze it. The ice pack should be used as is and can be refrozen after use if needed.

Choice C rationale:

Using a light cover on the pack is necessary to prevent direct contact of the ice with the skin, which can cause cold injury or frostbite.

Choice D rationale:

Covering the pack with plastic wrap is not necessary. The ice pack usually comes in a waterproof bag that prevents water leakage.

Choice A rationale:

Refraining from touching the drainage spout with the hand is a correct practice. This helps to prevent contamination of the drain.

Choice B rationale:

Using one alcohol wipe to clean both the spout and the plug is incorrect. Each part should be cleaned with a separate alcohol wipe to prevent cross-contamination.

Choice C rationale:

Pointing the device away from oneself while opening it is a correct practice. This helps to prevent accidental exposure to the drainage fluid.

Choice D rationale:

Compressing the device in the hand before closing is a correct practice. This helps to maintain the suction in the drain.
