Extract:
Question 1 of 5
A nurse is caring for a client who had a vaginal birth 2 hours ago. The nurse notes that the client's perineal pad is saturated with blood 20 minutes after placing a new pad. The client's fundus is boggy, palpable above the level of the umbilicus, and deviated to the right. Which intervention should the nurse perform first?
Correct Answer: C
Rationale: A boggy, deviated fundus and heavy bleeding suggest uterine atony and possible bladder distension preventing uterine contraction. Assisting to void relieves bladder pressure, promoting uterine involution. Oxytocin follows if bleeding persists.
Question 2 of 5
The nurse is reinforcing teaching for a client with atrial fibrillation who has a new prescription for warfarin. The nurse should instruct the client to avoid excess or inconsistent intake of which of the following foods? Select all that apply.
Correct Answer: C,D,E
Rationale: Broccoli, spinach, and kale are high in vitamin K, which can antagonize warfarin's anticoagulant effect. Consistent intake is key, but excess can reduce effectiveness. Red meat and bananas have minimal vitamin K and don't significantly affect warfarin.
