Question 1 of 5
A client who delivered vaginally 18 hours ago develops a slight fever. The client's delivery record shows spontaneous rupture of membranes (SROM) for 36 hours prior to delivery and labor lasting 24 hours. An epidural was placed during labor, and she experienced a third-degree perineal laceration. The nurse should recognize which information poses the greatest risk for developing postpartum endometritis?
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: Prolonged SROM significantly increases the risk of postpartum endometritis due to extended exposure to pathogens.
