Question 1 of 5

A nurse is assessing a client who is postoperative following an appendectomy. Which of the following findings indicates a potential complication?

Correct Answer: B

Rationale: The correct answer is B: Absence of bowel sounds. This finding indicates a potential complication post-appendectomy as it may suggest paralytic ileus, a condition where the bowel stops functioning properly. Absence of bowel sounds can lead to further complications such as bowel obstruction.
A: Mild pain at the incision site is common post-surgery and does not necessarily indicate a complication.
C: Urine output of 150 mL/hr is within the normal range and does not suggest a complication.
D: Temperature of 37.2°C (99°F) is slightly elevated but is not a definitive sign of a complication in this context.
