Question 1 of 5

Immediately after delivery of the client’s placenta, the nurse palpates the client’s uterine fundus. The fundus is firm and located halfway between the umbilicus and symphysis pubis. Which action should the nurse take based on the assessment findings?

Correct Answer: B

Rationale: Uterine massage is indicated only if the uterus does not feel firm and contracted. Immediately after birth, the uterus should contract, and the fundus should be located one-half to two-thirds of the way between the symphysis pubis and umbilicus. Thus the only action required is to document the assessment finding. There is no indication that the bladder is full. A full bladder will cause uterine displacement to either side of the abdomen. The uterus is firm; there is no reason to infer that increased vaginal bleeding would occur.
