Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Reverse Trendelenburg's position requires a doctor's order as it involves elevating the head of the bed while keeping the feet lowered. This position is used to promote venous return and decrease swelling in the lower extremities. The other positions mentioned (Semi-Fowler's, Fowler's, and flat) can generally be adjusted by nursing staff without a specific doctor's order.
