Question 1 of 5
A nurse is caring for a client who is 1 hr postpartum and has uterine atony. The client is exhibiting a large amount of vaginal bleeding. Which of the following actions should the nurse take?
Correct Answer: C
Rationale:
Rationale:
Choice C, anticipating a prescription for misoprostol, is correct. Misoprostol helps to contract the uterus and control bleeding in cases of uterine atony postpartum. Administering betamethasone (
A) is used for fetal lung development, not for uterine atony. Avoiding sterile vaginal exams (
B) is not helpful in managing uterine atony. Obtaining a specimen for a Kleihauer-Betke test (
D) is used to detect fetal-maternal hemorrhage, not to manage uterine atony.
