Question 1 of 5
A nurse is caring for a postpartum person who is breastfeeding. What is the most important intervention to prevent nipple trauma?
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: The correct answer is B: offer pain relief. Providing pain relief is crucial in preventing nipple trauma as it can help the postpartum person tolerate any discomfort associated with breastfeeding, thereby reducing the likelihood of damage to the nipples. Assisting with breastfeeding positioning (choice A) is important but not as critical as pain relief. Applying a cold compress (choice C) may help with inflammation but does not directly address the pain during breastfeeding. Monitoring contractions (choice D) is unrelated to preventing nipple trauma. Ultimately, addressing pain relief is the most effective intervention in ensuring successful and comfortable breastfeeding, thus preventing nipple trauma.
