A nurse is caring for a client who is at 30 weeks of gestation.
The nurse should plan to immunize the client with which of the following vaccines? (Select all that apply.)

This client should be reassessed by the RN prior to transfer, as worsening perineal pain may indicate a hematoma, infection, or inadequate pain management. The RN should inspect the perineum, check the vital signs, and evaluate the effectiveness of the medication.

The other options are not correct because:

B .A multigravida whose peri-pad is 1/4 saturated with lochia rubra after one hour does not need to be reassessed by the RN, as this is a normal finding for a client two hours post-birth. Lochia rubra is the red-colored vaginal discharge that contains blood and debris from the placental site, and it usually lasts for 3 to 4 days after delivery. A peri-pad that is 1/4 saturated after one hour is within the expected range of blood loss.

C. A multigravida complaining of strong afterbirth pains when breastfeeding does not need to be reassessed by the RN, as this is a normal finding for a client two hours post-birth. Afterbirth pains are cramps caused by uterine contractions that help shrink the uterus and prevent bleeding. They are more common and intense in multiparous women and during breastfeeding, as oxytocin is released and stimulates the contractions.

D. A primigravida who passed a small clot when she sat up on the edge of the bed does not need to be reassessed by the RN, as this is a normal finding for a client two hours post-birth. Small clots may form in the uterus or vagina due to pooling of blood during rest or anesthesia, and they are usually expelled when changing position or ambulating. As long as the clot is smaller than a plum and there is no excessive bleeding or pain, it is not a cause for concern.

If a prolapsed cord is identified, the nurse should perform a vaginal examination and ensure the presenting part is pushed upwards to relieve pressure on the cord.

Choice A) is not correct because while it is important to cover the cord with a sterile saline saturated towel if it has prolapsed externally 1, it is not the next action after calling for assistance and notifying the provider.

Choice C) is not correct because administering oxygen via non-rebreather mask at 8 L/min is not mentioned as an immediate intervention for a prolapsed cord .

Choice D) is not correct because initiating an infusion of IV fluids for the client is not mentioned as an immediate intervention for a prolapsed cord .
