Question 1 of 5
A client comes to the emergency department with severe abdominal cramping and frequent bloody stools. Food poisoning is suspected. Which assessment techniques and diagnostic studies should the nurse use?
Correct Answer: D
Rationale: The correct answer is D: Bowel sounds and stool sample. This is because the client is presenting with severe abdominal cramping and bloody stools, indicating a gastrointestinal issue. Assessing bowel sounds can provide information on the motility and function of the intestines. A stool sample can help identify the presence of pathogens causing food poisoning.
Choice A is incorrect because lung sounds and chest x-ray are not relevant to the client's gastrointestinal symptoms.
Choice B is incorrect as routine urinalysis does not provide information on the gastrointestinal tract.
Choice C is incorrect as lung sounds and sputum sample are more related to respiratory issues.
