Question

For David Rodriguez's case, I will concentrate on poor posture that may affect his musculoskeletal health. Specific nursing interventions related to poor posture include Postural assessment, Repositioning, and body alignment, as well as patient education on proper body mechanics. Specific positioning on how not to exert pressure or pressure certain muscles and joints on David's body I would explain to him, and in some instances, may prescribe the use of assist or positioning accessories. This intervention is justified because patients with poor posture will likely develop more injuries, acquire more musculoskeletal problems, and have reduced mobility and rehabilitation outcomes. Nurses can effectively prevent secondary complications, manage and minimize pain, and improve functional outcomes and the patient's knowledge of how positioning affects tissue repair and future musculoskeletal health.
