Extract:


Question 1 of 5

A nurse is caring for a client who is postoperative following abdominal surgery. Which of the following findings should indicate to the nurse that intestinal function is returning?

Correct Answer: A

Rationale: The correct answer is A: Passage of flatus. When a client starts passing flatus, it indicates that intestinal function is returning postoperatively. Flatus passage shows that peristalsis is active and that the bowel is functioning properly. This is a positive sign of gastrointestinal motility and the return of normal bowel function.

Choices B, C, and D are incorrect.
Choice B, requesting tea and toast, does not directly indicate intestinal function.
Choice C, hypoactive bowel sounds, suggest decreased bowel motility.
Choice D, abdominal distention, is a sign of impaired gastrointestinal function.
