Question 1 of 5

A nurse is caring for a postpartum person who is at risk for uterine atony. What is the priority intervention to prevent uterine atony?

Correct Answer: B

Rationale: The correct answer is B: administer an analgesic. This is the priority intervention because pain management helps the person relax, which reduces stress on the uterus and promotes effective contraction to prevent uterine atony. Administering uterotonic medication (choice A) may help contract the uterus but addressing pain first is crucial. Performing uterine massage (choice C) can assist in contracting the uterus but is not the priority intervention. Administering IV fluids (choice D) is important for hydration but does not directly address preventing uterine atony.
