Question 1 of 5
The nurse is caring for a client who is 24 hours postoperative following a left total knee replacement. Which assessment data would indicate that the client is ready for discharge?
Correct Answer: C
Rationale: Clear lung bases indicate no respiratory complications, such as pneumonia, which is critical for discharge readiness. A pulse of 102 and low blood pressure (104/72 mm Hg) suggest possible instability, requiring further evaluation. Low urine output (200 mL/8 hours) indicates potential renal issues, and severe pain (8/10) suggests inadequate pain control, both contraindicating discharge.
