Question 1 of 5
The nurse is caring for a client immediately following hypophysectomy. The nurse should position the client
Correct Answer: C
Rationale: High-Fowler’s position (head elevated 30–45 degrees) is recommended post-hypophysectomy to reduce intracranial pressure and prevent cerebrospinal fluid leakage. Trendelenburg and reverse Trendelenburg could increase pressure or disrupt surgical site healing, and side-lying is less effective for this purpose.
