Question 2 of 5

A nurse on a postpartum unit is receiving change-of-shift report for four clients. Which of the following clients should the nurse see first?

Question 3 of 5

A nurse is assessing a client 2 hours after a vaginal delivery and notes that the client's uterus is boggy and displaced to the right. Which of the following interventions should the nurse perform first?

Correct Answer: A

Rationale: A boggy and displaced uterus is often a sign of bladder distention, which can prevent the uterus from contracting effectively. The priority intervention is to assist the client to void, which will allow the uterus to return to midline and become firm.

Question 4 of 5

A nurse is caring for a newborn who has a blood glucose level of 45 mg/dL. Which of the following actions should the nurse take?

Correct Answer: A

Rationale: Encouraging the mother to breastfeed is appropriate, as breastfeeding can quickly raise blood glucose levels in newborns. A level of 45 mg/dL is often acceptable but should be monitored closely.
