Question 1 of 5

The client is diagnosed with moderate postpartum depression (PPD) after vaginal delivery of a 10 lb baby. One week following the delivery, the nurse is completing a home visit. Which finding should be the nurse’s priority?

Correct Answer: C

Rationale: Lochia that is foul smelling could indicate that the client has a postpartum infection. The client needs to be seen by an HCP, but the safety of the infant is priority. The presence of tender hemorrhoids may be uncomfortable and should be addressed, but this is not priority. It is inappropriate for the client to yell at her baby to stop crying. Verbal abuse can escalate to physical abuse. The safety of the infant should be the nurse’s priority. Persistent crying is a sign of PPD and would be expected. However, persistent crying should be further explored because treatment may be ineffective.
