Question 1 of 5

The nurse is obtaining the pulse of a client who has had a femoral-popliteal bypass surgery 6 hours ago. Which assessment provides the most accurate information about the client's postoperative status?

Correct Answer: B

Rationale: Assessing the pedal pulse post-femoral-popliteal bypass is most accurate for evaluating graft patency and distal perfusion. A palpable or Doppler-detected pedal pulse indicates successful restoration of blood flow to the lower extremity. Other pulses (radial, brachial, popliteal) are less specific to the surgical site.
