Question 1 of 5
A nurse is assessing a client who is reporting severe pain despite analgesia. The nurse can best assess the intensity of the client's pain by:
Correct Answer: C
Rationale: The correct answer is C: Offering the client a pain scale to measure his pain. This is the best way to assess the intensity of the client's pain objectively. Pain scales provide a standardized way for clients to communicate their pain levels, allowing for more accurate assessment and monitoring. Asking what precipitates the pain (choice
A) focuses on triggers, not intensity. Questioning about the location of pain (choice
B) is important but doesn't directly measure intensity. Using open-ended questions (choice
D) may not provide a quantitative measure of pain.
