5-year-old child following a tonsillectomy and adenoidectomy


Question 1 of 5

A nurse is caring for a 5-year-old child following a tonsillectomy and adenoidectomy. Which of the following findings should the nurse identify as an indication of hemorrhage?

Correct Answer: C

Rationale: The correct answer is C: Continuous swallowing. Following a tonsillectomy and adenoidectomy, continuous swallowing can indicate hemorrhage due to blood trickling down the throat. This can lead to an increase in the risk of airway obstruction and aspiration. Blood pressure and heart rate are within normal range for a child post-surgery. Flushing of the face is a common side effect of anesthesia and not necessarily indicative of hemorrhage.
