Question 1 of 5
A nurse is preparing to administer methylergonovine IM to a client who experienced a vaginal delivery. The nurse should explain to the client that the purpose of this medication is to prevent which of the following conditions?
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: The correct answer is A: Postpartum hemorrhage. Methylergonovine is a medication used to prevent or treat postpartum hemorrhage by causing uterine contractions, which helps to control bleeding after delivery. This is crucial in preventing excessive blood loss and ensuring the client's safety.
Choices B, C, and D are incorrect because methylergonovine is not indicated for preventing postpartum infection, hypertension, or thromboembolic events. It is essential for the nurse to understand the purpose of the medication to provide accurate information to the client and ensure safe administration.
