Answer & Explanation
The correct answer is Option A: A) Laying down with legs raised.
Laying the casualty down with legs raised (Trendelenburg position variant) promotes venous return to vital organs and improves perfusion to the heart and brain, which is critical in cases of potential internal bleeding or shock.
