Answer:

Elevation and unable to mobilize the affected leg.

Step-by-step explanation:

Autograft may be defined as the transplantation of tissue from one point of the body to another point in the same individual. Autograft can be performed in the severe accidents.

The client has a burn wound on right knee after the autograft. The position that nurse should anticipate to the client is the elevation and immobilization of the burned or affected leg.
