Question 1 of 5

The nurse in the ED documents that the newly admitted client is 'postictal upon transfer.' What did the nurse observe?

Correct Answer: B

Rationale: Jaundice and icterus are terms for yellowing of the skin. The client had experienced a tonic-clonic seizure recently and is now in a state of deep relaxation and is breathing quietly. During this period the client may be unconscious or awaken gradually, but is often confused and disoriented. Often the client is amnesic regarding the seizure. Pruritus is a term for itching. Paresthesia is the term for abnormal sensations such as tingling and burning of the skin.
