A nurse is preparing to receive a client from surgery following a transverse colon resection with colostomy placement. The nurse should expect to assess the stoma at which of the following locations? (You will find hot spots to select in the artwork below. Select only the hot spot that corresponds to your answer.)

B. Sublingual nitroglycerin is intended for the immediate relief of angina symptoms. Clients should take the medication as soon as they experience chest pain or discomfort. Prompt administration can help alleviate symptoms and prevent the progression of angina episodes.
A. If the chest pain persists or worsens after taking the first dose of sublingual nitroglycerin, the client can take a second dose after 5 minutes. However, taking another dose after only 2 minutes may increase the risk of hypotension and other adverse effects.
C. Sublingual nitroglycerin tablets are not meant to be chewed or swallowed. Instead, they should be placed under the tongue and allowed to dissolve completely. Chewing or swallowing the tablet can reduce the medication's effectiveness.

D. Sublingual nitroglycerin should be placed under the tongue, not against the cheek or gum.

C. Suspending the infusion of packed RBCs is essential to prevent further administration of the blood product that may be causing the adverse reaction. Stopping the infusion allows for further assessment and appropriate management of the client's symptoms.
A. The client's symptoms of chills, lower back pain, and nausea suggest a potential transfusion reaction rather than respiratory compromise.
B. Collecting a urine sample may be indicated to assess for hemolysis or kidney injury, which can occur as a result of a transfusion reaction. However, this action can be deferred until after immediate interventions to manage the suspected reaction.
D. While checking the client's vital signs is important in assessing the severity of the reaction and the client's overall condition, it is not the first action to take when a transfusion reaction is suspected.
