A nurse is positioning a client for a cesarean birth.

To prevent a compromise in placental blood flow during the intraoperative period, which of the following actions should the nurse take?

The correct answer is choice B. Using an electronic messaging system to remind clients when to take medications. Tertiary prevention in healthcare involves measures taken to reduce the impact of an ongoing illness or injury that has lasting effects. This is done by helping people manage long-term, often-complex health problems and injuries in order to improve as much as possible their ability to function, their quality of life, and their life expectancy. In the context of an HIV clinic, reminding clients to take their medications can help manage the disease effectively and prevent complications.

Choice A rationale:

Educating clients about contraindications to specific immunizations is incorrect because this is more aligned with primary prevention, which aims to prevent the onset of an illness or injury before the disease process begins.

Choice C rationale:

Providing clients with information about the benefits of exercise is incorrect as this is generally considered a part of primary prevention, promoting general health to prevent various diseases.

Choice D rationale:

Helping clients understand health screenings covered by their insurance plans is incorrect because this is typically associated with secondary prevention, which involves screening to identify diseases in the earliest stages.

Answer is… C and F indicate improvement.

A The client has gained 1.8 kg (4 lb). BMI is 18.9. This is not an improvement because the client’s BMI is still below the normal range of 18.5 to 24.9 The client may have malnutrition or other health problems that affect their weight.

B The clients adult child prepares two meals per day for the client. This is not an improvement because it shows that the client still depends on others for their basic needs and may have difficulty with self-care.

C The clients clothing is clean and appropriate for the weather. This is an improvement because it shows that the client has good hygiene and can dress themselves appropriately.

D The client receives three baths per week from a home care aide. This is not an improvement because it shows that the client still needs assistance with bathing and may have limited mobility or pain.

E The client reports frequent toothaches and lack of dental care. This is not an improvement because it shows that the client has poor oral health and may have infections or other complications.

F The client makes eye contact and smiles when speaking. This is an improvement because it shows that the client has positive mood and social interaction.
