Question 1 of 5
A nurse is collecting data from an adolescent client 24 hours after surgery. Which of the following findings should the nurse report to the primary health care provider?
Correct Answer: C
Rationale: Increased weight-bearing ability on the affected leg is typically an expected finding, especially as the client begins to recover postoperatively. Enhanced weight-bearing suggests improving strength, mobility, and healing in the affected limb. It does not usually indicate complications. Warmth extending from the left calf to the knee could indicate localized inflammation or infection, but without additional findings like swelling or pain, it's less urgent. A temperature of 38.8° C (101.8° F) suggests a possible systemic infection, such as a postoperative wound infection, and must be reported promptly for evaluation to prevent complications like sepsis. Itching in bilateral antecubital spaces may indicate a mild allergic reaction or irritation but is not urgent unless accompanied by severe symptoms.
