Question 1 of 5
A nurse is collecting data from a client who is postoperative and received hydromorphone 4 mg PO 15 min ago. The client tells the nurse, 'My pain level is still 8 on a 0 to 10 scale.' Which of the following actions should the nurse take first?)
Correct Answer: D
Rationale: The correct answer is D: Reevaluate the client's response to the medication in 30 min. The nurse should first reassess the client's pain response after administering hydromorphone before taking further action. This step is crucial to determine the effectiveness of the medication and whether additional interventions are needed. Contacting the provider for more medication (
A) may be premature without reevaluation. Teaching relaxation techniques (
B) is not the priority when the client's pain level remains high. Documenting the client's reaction (
C) is important but does not address the immediate need to reassess pain control.
