Question 1 of 5
A nurse is caring for a client who has maternal hypotension following the placement of an epidural. Which of the following actions should the nurse take?
Correct Answer: D
Rationale: The correct answer is D: Administer a bolus of lactated Ringer. Maternal hypotension following epidural placement indicates hypovolemia or vasodilation. Providing a bolus of lactated Ringer helps increase intravascular volume, improving blood pressure. Terbutaline Subq (
A) is not indicated for hypotension. Positioning the client in a knee-chest position (
B) is not appropriate for maternal hypotension. Applying oxygen via non-rebreather (
C) may not address the underlying cause of hypotension.
