When would a fracture pan be typically used in a healthcare setting?

  1. During intravenous feeding

  2. For mobilizing weak individuals

  3. Post-surgery for bone issues

  4. For normal bowel movements

The correct answer is: Post-surgery for bone issues

A fracture pan is a specific type of bedpan that is used for patients who have a leg, hip, or pelvic injury and are unable to use a regular bedpan because of the position they need to be in. This makes options A and D incorrect as they are not related to helping with bone injuries. Option B is incorrect as well because mobilizing weak individuals does not require the use of a bedpan.
