Question 1 of 5
A nurse is assessing a client's abdomen who reports stomach pain. Which of the following actions should the nurse take first?
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: The correct answer is A: Inspect. Inspecting the abdomen first allows the nurse to visually assess for any abnormalities, such as distention or discoloration, which could provide initial clues to the cause of the stomach pain. Palpation (
B) should be done after inspection to feel for tenderness or masses. Auscultation (
C) should come next to listen for bowel sounds. Percussion (
D) is typically done last to assess for organ size and density. Starting with inspection helps prioritize the assessment process based on gathering visible information first before moving on to more invasive techniques.
