resuming regular exercise routine as soon as getting home is not advisable after a C-section.The client should gradually increase activity levels and avoid strenuous exercises until cleared by the healthcare provider.

ibuprofen may not be sufficient for pain relief after a C-section.The client may need stronger pain medications prescribed by the healthcare provider and should follow the instructions on how to take them safely.

because removing the dressing from the incision site tomorrow is too soon.The client should keep the incision site clean and dry and follow the healthcare provider’s instructions on when and how to change the dressing.Removing the dressing too early can increase the risk of infection or wound dehiscence.

nausea and vomiting are not specific signs of thromboembolism.

They can be caused by many other conditions, such as morning sickness, food poisoning, or medication side effects.

headache and blurred vision are not typical signs of thromboembolism.

They can be associated with other pregnancy complications, such as preeclampsia or eclampsia.

fever and chills are not common signs of thromboembolism.

They can indicate an infection or inflammation, such as mastitis or endometritis.

Administering an opioid analgesic is wrong because opioids can cause respiratory depression and sedation, which are not desirable before surgery.

Opioids can also cross the placenta and affect the fetus.

Assessing for signs of deep vein thrombosis is wrong because this is not a priority intervention before surgery.

Deep vein thrombosis is more likely to occur after surgery due to immobility and venous stasis.

Providing a high-carbohydrate meal is wrong because this can increase the risk of aspiration during surgery.

The client should be kept NPO (nothing by mouth) for at least 6 hours before surgery.

controlling anxiety and agitation may not directly prevent respiratory complications, although it may help patients breathe more comfortably.

adequate nutrition and fluids are important for general health and recovery, but they do not specifically prevent respiratory complications.

adequate pain control may help patients breathe more deeply and cough more effectively, but it is not enough to prevent respiratory complications by itself.

early ambulation may improve blood circulation and reduce the risk of thromboembolism, but it does not directly prevent respiratory complications.

Encouraging coughing and deep breathing exercises is wrong because this intervention is mainly for preventing respiratory complications, not SSI.Coughing and deep breathing exercises help to clear secretions and prevent atelectasis and pneumonia.

Providing adequate pain control is wrong because this intervention is mainly for improving patient comfort and recovery, not SSI.Pain control may reduce stress and inflammation, but it does not directly affect the risk of SSI.

Assessing for signs of deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is wrong because this intervention is mainly for preventing venous thromboembolism (VTE), not SSI.

DVT is a condition where a blood clot forms in a deep vein, usually in the legs.

encouraging early ambulation can prevent thromboembolism, which is a potential complication of cesarean delivery.Early mobilization can also reduce pain, ileus, and urinary retention.

monitoring the client’s intake and output can help detect fluid imbalance, dehydration, or urinary tract infection.

Fluid intake should be adequate to maintain hydration and support lactation.Urinary output should be at least 30 mL per hour.

All of the above interventions should be implemented in the immediate postoperative period after a cesarean delivery.

because all of the above interventions are appropriate for postoperative care after a cesarean delivery.

hemoglobin of 11 g/dL is within the normal range for pregnant women, which is 10.5 to 14 g/dL.

Hemoglobin carries oxygen in the blood and a low level can indicate anemia.

hite blood cells of 12,000/mm3 are slightly elevated but not abnormal for pregnant women, who have a normal range of 5,000 to 15,000/mm3.

White blood cells fight infection and a high level can indicate inflammation or infection.

blood type A positive is not a cause for concern unless the baby has a different blood type that is incompatible with the mother’s.

In that case, the mother may need an injection of Rh immunoglobulin to prevent hemolytic disease of the newborn.

driving is not recommended until the incision is healed and the pain is gone, which can take 4 to 6 weeks.

lifting anything heavier than the baby can strain the incision and cause bleeding or infection.

sexual intercourse should be avoided until the vaginal bleeding stops and the incision is healed, which can take 4 to 6 weeks or longer.

looking away from the baby and talking to the visitors suggests that the mother is not interested in or attached to her baby.She may be distracted, overwhelmed, or depressed.

anding the baby to the nurse whenever he cries implies that the mother is not willing or able to comfort her baby.She may be avoiding contact or feeling helpless.

feeding the baby with a bottle and avoiding eye contact indicates that the mother is not engaging with her baby.She may be missing an opportunity to bond through eye contact, touch, and voice.

mothers do not necessarily have more problems with parenting skills after cesarean delivery.

Parenting skills depend on many factors, such as education, support, personality, and motivation.

Cesarean delivery may pose some challenges for postpartum recovery and care, but it does not imply that mothers are less competent or capable of parenting.

mothers can breastfeed right away after cesarean delivery, unless there are medical contraindications or complications.

Breastfeeding is beneficial for both the mother and the newborn, as it provides nutrition, immunity, comfort, and bonding.However, breastfeeding after cesarean delivery may require more assistance and support from health care providers and family members, as well as alternative positions and techniques to avoid pain and discomfort.

mothers do not necessarily resent the health care team member for keeping the newborn in the nursery.

Mothers may appreciate the help and care that the health care team member provides for them and their newborns.

However, keeping the newborn in the nursery may delay or reduce the opportunities for maternal-infant interaction and bonding.

Therefore, it is recommended to promote early and frequent contact between the mother and the newborn after cesarean delivery, as long as it is safe

the evidence comparing the risks of planned Cesarean section and vaginal delivery is mainly low or moderate quality.There are many confounding factors that can affect the outcomes of different modes of delivery, and most studies are observational and not randomized.

the immediate maternal risks from a planned Cesarean section are not significantly higher than those of a planned vaginal delivery.However, a planned Cesarean section is associated with higher risks of infection, thromboembolism, wound complications, and longer hospital stay than a planned vaginal delivery.

a vaginal birth is not associated with a comparable or higher maternal mortality rate than planned Cesarean section.The maternal mortality rate for planned Cesarean section is 0.01% and for planned vaginal delivery is 0.02%, which means there is no significant difference between the two modes of delivery.

there is no evidence that an association exists between a prior Cesarean section and subsequent preterm birth, fetal growth restriction and spontaneous miscarriage.

These outcomes are more likely to be influenced by other factors such as maternal age, medical conditions,
