Question 1 of 5
A nurse on a med-surge unit is caring for four clients. The nurse should recognize that which of the following clients is the priority?
Correct Answer: C
Rationale: The correct answer is C. The client with peripheral vascular disease and an absent pulse in the right foot requires immediate attention due to the risk of limb ischemia and potential amputation. Priority is given to clients with life-threatening or limb-threatening conditions. Options A, B, and D are important but not as urgent as the client with compromised circulation. Option A can lead to urinary retention but is not immediately life-threatening. Option B involves emotional support but does not pose a physical risk. Option D is important for wound care but does not present an immediate threat to life or limb. Prioritizing based on urgency and potential harm is crucial in nursing care.
