Question 1 of 5

A nurse is caring for a client who reports back pain. The nurse asks the client to rate the pain on a scale of 0 to 10. The nurse is using which of the following components of the PQRST mnemonic?

Correct Answer: A

Rationale: The correct answer is A: Severity. In the PQRST mnemonic for pain assessment, "S" stands for Severity, which refers to the intensity of the pain on a scale of 0 to 10. By asking the client to rate the pain level, the nurse is assessing the severity of the pain. This information helps in determining the appropriate treatment and monitoring the effectiveness of interventions.
Other choices are incorrect:
B: Precipitating cause - This refers to factors that trigger the pain, not the pain intensity.
C: Region - This refers to the specific location of the pain, not the pain intensity.
