Question 1 of 5

A nurse is planning care for a client who is scheduled for a thoracentesis. Which of the following actions should the nurse include in the plan?

Correct Answer: B

Rationale: The correct answer is B: Place the client leaning forward over the overbed table. This position helps to expand the intercostal spaces, making it easier to access and aspirate the pleural fluid during thoracentesis. It also reduces the risk of puncturing the diaphragm. A: Scheduling an MRI after the procedure is unnecessary and not related to thoracentesis. C: Encouraging the client to take deep breaths during the procedure is incorrect as it can cause movement and make the procedure more challenging. D: Ensuring the client has been NPO for 6 hours is irrelevant to thoracentesis and not necessary for this procedure.
