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: D
Rationale: The correct answer is D: Continuous swallowing. Post-tonsillectomy and adenoidectomy, hemorrhage is a potential complication. Continuous swallowing indicates blood trickling down the throat, a sign of bleeding. A heart rate of 54/min is bradycardia, not typically associated with hemorrhage. Flushing of the face may be a sign of fever or anxiety, not necessarily hemorrhage. A blood pressure of 95/56 mm Hg is low but not a definitive sign of hemorrhage. Continuous swallowing is the most indicative of hemorrhage due to the potential presence of blood in the throat.
