Question 1 of 5

A nurse is assessing a client who is 1 hr postpartum following a vaginal birth. The nurse notes that the client has excessive vaginal bleeding. Which of the following actions should the nurse take first?

Correct Answer: A

Rationale: The correct action for the nurse to take first in this situation is to massage the client's fundus. This is because excessive vaginal bleeding postpartum can indicate uterine atony, which is the most common cause of postpartum hemorrhage. Massaging the fundus helps stimulate uterine contractions, which will help to control the bleeding. It is important to address this issue promptly to prevent further complications. Administering oxytocin (choice
B) can also help with uterine contractions, but massaging the fundus should be done first. Emptying the client's bladder (choice
C) can relieve pressure on the uterus, but it is not the priority in this situation. Providing oxygen (choice
D) is not necessary unless the client is showing signs of hypoxia, which is not indicated in the scenario.
