Question 1 of 5
A nurse is confirming with the client the informed consent signed earlier that day. The client then states, 'I have changed my mind and do not want to have the procedure done.' What action should the nurse take?
Correct Answer: B
Rationale:
Correct
Answer: B. Notify the surgeon that the client wishes to withdraw informed consent for the procedure.
Rationale: The nurse should prioritize the client's autonomy and right to make decisions about their own healthcare. If the client changes their mind and decides not to proceed with the procedure, the nurse should communicate this to the surgeon promptly to ensure the client's wishes are respected. Proceeding with the preparation for surgery or reminding the client of the legal implications of the consent form would not align with the client's right to withdraw consent. Informing the surgical team to cancel the surgery is the appropriate action to take in this situation to uphold the client's autonomy and avoid performing a procedure against their wishes.
