Question 1 of 5
A nurse is assessing a client who is postoperative following a gastric bypass. Which of the following findings should the nurse report to the provider?
Correct Answer: C
Rationale: The correct answer is C: Abdominal pain unrelieved by medication. This finding is concerning post-gastric bypass surgery as it could indicate complications such as internal bleeding, infection, or anastomotic leak. The nurse should report this to the provider immediately for further evaluation and intervention.
Incorrect choices:
A: Heart rate of 92 beats per minute - This heart rate is within normal range for a postoperative client and typically not a cause for immediate concern.
B: Incision site drainage that is serosanguineous - Serosanguineous drainage is expected in the early postoperative period and is not an abnormal finding.
D: Temperature of 37.1°C (98.8°F) - This temperature is within normal limits and not typically indicative of a complication post gastric bypass surgery.
