Question 1 of 5

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

Correct Answer: A

Rationale: The correct answer is A: Crushed ice. Post-tonsillectomy, cold and soft fluids like crushed ice help soothe the throat and reduce pain and swelling. Ice also helps prevent bleeding by constricting blood vessels. Cranberry juice (choice
B) and orange juice (choice
C) are acidic and may irritate the surgical site. Vanilla milkshake (choice
D) is too thick and may cause discomfort. Other choices are not relevant. In summary, crushed ice is the best option post tonsillectomy due to its soothing and anti-inflammatory properties.
