Question 1 of 5
A nurse is contributing to the plan of care for a client who has an intestinal obstruction and is receiving continuous gastrointestinal decompression using a nasogastric tube. Which of the following interventions should the nurse include in the plan of care?
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: Measure abdominal girth daily: Measuring abdominal girth daily helps assess for changes in distention, which is important in monitoring the effectiveness of the decompression. Lemon-glycerin swabs can dry the oral mucosa, Fowler's position is appropriate but not the primary intervention here, and sterile water is not recommended for NG tube irrigation.
