A nurse is preparing to insert an IV catheter for a client.
Which of the following actions should the nurse plan to take?

Choice A rationale:

Potato pancakes made from potatoes do not contain gluten, making them suitable for someone with celiac disease. Gluten is a protein found in wheat, barley, and rye, so individuals with celiac disease must avoid foods containing these grains.

Choice B rationale:

Wheat crackers contain gluten and are not appropriate for someone with celiac disease. Avoiding gluten is crucial for individuals with this condition to prevent damage to the small intestine.

Choice C rationale:

White flour tortillas are typically made from wheat flour and contain gluten. Individuals with celiac disease should avoid products made from wheat flour to prevent adverse reactions.

Choice D rationale:

Canned barley soup contains barley, which is a gluten-containing grain. Individuals with celiac disease should avoid barley-based products as they contain gluten.

Choice A rationale:

Placing the client's hands in warm water is a method to stimulate urination and is appropriate for clients experiencing difficulty voiding.

Choice B rationale:

Performing a fundal massage is incorrect choice in this scenario.

Choice C rationale:

Administering a benzodiazepine is not appropriate for this situation. Benzodiazepines are a class of medications primarily used for anxiety, insomnia, and seizures. There is no indication for the use of benzodiazepines in this case, as the client's inability to urinate is likely related to a physiological issue postpartum, not anxiety or seizures.

Choice D rationale:

Placing an ice pack on the client's perineum is not the correct intervention for this situation. Ice packs on the perineum are typically used to reduce swelling and relieve pain after childbirth. However, the client's inability to urinate suggests a potential issue within the urinary system, and a fundal massage to promote uterine contractions would be more appropriate.
