Question 1 of 5

A nurse is assessing a client who has an abdominal incision. Which of the following findings should the nurse report to the provider?

Correct Answer: D

Rationale: The correct answer is D: Partial separation of the upper part of the incisional line. This finding indicates a potential wound complication like dehiscence, which requires immediate medical attention to prevent infection and further wound issues.

A: Crusting of exudate is a normal part of wound healing and does not typically require immediate intervention.
B: Mild swelling near the incision is common in the early stages of healing and may not be concerning unless it worsens.
C: Pink-tinged coloration suggests normal healing and is not typically alarming unless accompanied by other symptoms like warmth or pus.
D: Partial separation of the incision indicates a potential complication that needs medical attention.
E, F, G: No other options provided.

In summary, the nurse should report partial separation of the incision as it indicates a potential complication, while the other findings are typically part of the normal healing process.
