Question 1 of 5

A nurse is caring for a patient with a nursing diagnosis of Constipation related to slowed gastrointestinal motility secondary to pain medications. Which outcome is most appropriate for the nurse to include in the plan of care?

Correct Answer: B

Rationale: The correct answer is B: Patient will have one soft, formed bowel movement by the end of shift. This outcome is appropriate because it directly addresses the patient's nursing diagnosis of constipation related to slowed gastrointestinal motility secondary to pain medications. Achieving one soft, formed bowel movement indicates improved gastrointestinal motility and alleviation of constipation. Offering laxatives or stool softeners (choice
A) is a short-term solution and does not address the underlying issue. Not taking pain medications (choice
C) is not feasible as pain management is essential for the patient. Walking unassisted to the bathroom (choice
D) is not directly related to addressing constipation.
