Question 1 of 5
After a tonsillectomy and adenoidectomy, which of the following findings should alert the nurse to suspect early hemorrhage in a 5-year-old child?
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: Drooling of bright red secretions indicates active bleeding, a sign of early hemorrhage post-tonsillectomy. A pulse rate of 95 bpm is within normal range for a 5-year-old, and vomiting dark brown emesis suggests older blood, not active bleeding. Blood pressure of 95/56 mm Hg is low but not specific to hemorrhage without other signs.
