A child who is 2 hours postoperative following a tonsillectomy


Question 1 of 5

A nurse is caring for a child who is 2 hours postoperative following a tonsillectomy. Which of the following fluid items should the nurse offer the child at this time?

Correct Answer: D

Rationale: The correct answer is D: Water. Post-tonsillectomy, it is important to offer clear fluids to prevent dehydration and promote healing. Water is the best option as it is non-irritating and helps maintain hydration without risking complications such as aspiration or pain. Cranberry juice (
A) may be too acidic and irritating, vanilla milkshake (
B) is too thick and can cause discomfort, and cubed ice (
C) may be too cold and can potentially increase the risk of bleeding. Overall, water is the safest and most appropriate choice for a child post-tonsillectomy.
