Question 1 of 5

A nurse in a PACU is admitting a client who is postoperative following anesthesia from the waist down. Which of the following interventions should the nurse take to prevent aspiration?

Correct Answer: B

Rationale: The correct answer is B: Suction the nasopharynx as needed. This intervention helps prevent aspiration by ensuring that the airway is clear of secretions or any obstruction that could lead to choking or aspiration of fluids. Performing chest physiotherapy (
C) is not directly related to preventing aspiration in this scenario. Withholding fluids until the client demonstrates a gag reflex (
A) may lead to dehydration and is not a standard practice. Placing a bedside humidifier (
D) may help with airway moisture but does not directly prevent aspiration.
