A nurse is planning care for a client who has bipolar disorder and is experiencing mania.
Which of the following interventions should the nurse include in the plan?

A. Placenta previa: The client's symptoms do not specifically suggest placenta previa, which is characterized by painless vaginal bleeding, not back pain.
B. Disseminated intravascular coagulation: The client's symptoms and vital signs do not suggest disseminated intravascular coagulation, which is a serious condition characterized by excessive bleeding and clotting throughout the body.
C. Preeclampsia: The presence of uterine contractions, elevated blood pressure, and a potential increase in body temperature can indicate the risk of developing preeclampsia, a condition characterized by high blood pressure and signs of damage to other organ systems, often developing after the 20th week of pregnancy.
D. Sepsis: While the client has an elevated temperature, the symptoms provided do not strongly indicate sepsis. Other signs, such as rapid heart rate, low blood pressure, and changes in mental status, are usually associated with sepsis.
E. Preterm prelabour rupture of membranes (PROM): The client's report of lower back pain, pinkish vaginal discharge, and uterine contractions can raise concern for the risk of preterm prelabour rupture of membranes, where the amniotic sac ruptures before the onset of labor.
F. Seizures: The client's symptoms and information provided do not indicate a risk of seizures. Seizures can be associated with conditions like preeclampsia but are not directly indicated by the client's current assessment.

A. Correct. Evaluating the client's ability to assist with repositioning is important to ensure safe and appropriate positioning that considers the client's capabilities and comfort.
B. Incorrect. The use of assistive devices or assistance from the nurse or other personnel may be necessary to ensure safe repositioning, especially in clients with mobility limitations.
C. Incorrect. While discussing the client's preferences is important, it may not directly relate to the immediate need for repositioning after a stroke.
D. Incorrect. Raising the side rails on both sides of the bed is important for client's safety, but it doesn't address the client's need for repositioning after a stroke.
