An older adult client on an orthopedic unit has an intracapsular fracture of the right hip following a fall. The client is in Buck's traction and will have hip prosthesis surgery in the morning. The nurse should reinforce with the client that this type of traction promotes which of the following outcomes?

A. Buck’s traction is not intended to support active movement of the extremity; movement is limited to maintain alignment. B. Unlike skeletal traction, Buck’s traction does not provide fracture reduction but is used temporarily until surgery. C. Pin alignment is not relevant because Buck’s traction is a skin traction, not a skeletal traction with pins. D. Buck’s traction is primarily used preoperatively to immobilize the limb and relieve muscle spasms associated with hip fractures, making this the correct outcome.
