Lateral, lateral chest, and lateral kidney positions can lead to significant pressure injuries. Which resultant injury could be related to these lateral positions?

The choice indicating that all options are correct is accurate because positioning in lateral, lateral chest, and lateral kidney positions can indeed lead to pressure injuries in various anatomical areas. When patients are placed in lateral positions, there's significant contact between the body and the surgical table or other surfaces, which can compress soft tissues and compromise blood flow.

Injuries related to these positions can affect the shoulders, hips, and knees due to prolonged pressure and improper alignment. The shoulders may incur pressure injuries due to direct contact and gravitational effects on the body. The hips are at risk as they bear weight when the body is in a lateral position, often leading to skin breakdown. The knees, particularly the lateral aspect, can also suffer from pressure injuries as they can come into contact with the table or other surfaces, especially if the legs are not properly padded or aligned.

Recognizing the potential for injuries across multiple locations underscores the importance of careful positioning and regular assessments of skin integrity during procedures.
