Question 1 of 5

A nurse is caring for a client who reports abdominal pain. The nurse asks the client to describe what the pain feels like. The nurse is using which of the following components of the PQRST mnemonic?

Correct Answer: C

Rationale: The correct answer is C: Quality. In the PQRST mnemonic for pain assessment, Quality refers to the characteristics of the pain such as sharp, dull, burning, etc. By asking the client to describe what the pain feels like, the nurse is assessing the quality of the pain. This information helps in determining the potential causes and appropriate interventions.

A: Precipitating cause - This component refers to factors that trigger or worsen pain, not how the pain feels.
B: Region - This component refers to the location of the pain, not its quality.
D: Severity - This component refers to the intensity of pain, not its quality.
