dropdown

Answer and Explanation

The Correct Answer is {"dropdown-group-1":"C"}

Based on the client's history and physical, the nurse notes that this postpartum client is most at risk for developing thromboembolism

Rationale

Prolonged immobility during labor and instrumental delivery are risk factors for venous thromboembolism (VTE) due to stasis of blood flow in the lower extremities. In addition, epidural anesthesia can contribute to venous stasis by impairing mobility and reducing the ability to feel discomfort or urgency to move.

The immediate postpartum period, especially after a prolonged labor and delivery, poses an increased risk of VTE due to hypercoagulability and vascular damage.

Correct Answer is ["B","C"]

Explanation

Rationale

A. High in sodium due to pickling, which is not suitable for someone with hypertension.

B. Recommended because fresh fruits are low in sodium and high in potassium and other nutrients beneficial for managing blood pressure.

C. Recommended because they are low in sodium and rich in potassium, fiber, and nutrients that support cardiovascular health.

D. Cottage cheese is high in sodium and should be avoided or consumed in moderation.

A. Apply ice then a warm compress to the IV site. B. Discontinue the IV site after inserting a new access. C. Redress the IV site while assessing for redness. D. Review the medical record for the date of insertion.

Correct Answer is B

Explanation

Rationale

A. Applying ice or a warm compress without assessing the site could potentially worsen any underlying issue.

B. The appropriate intervention would be to discontinue the IV site after ensuring a new access is established. This is because continuing to use a painful IV site can lead to complications such as infiltration or phlebitis.

C. Redressing the site without assessment does not address the client's complaint of pain.

D. Checking the medical record provides information about when the IV was inserted, which can be important for assessing the site's viability and expected duration. However, it doesn't address the immediate concern of the client's pain at the site or refusal of a flush.
