ATI Med Surg N241 Exam Questions

Extract:


Question 1 of 5

The nurse notes these laboratory results for a client with cirrhosis: PT 20 seconds (11-12.5 sec) and serum ammonia 35 mcg/dL (15-45 mcg/dL). What action by the nurse would be a priority?

Correct Answer: C

Rationale: While important, it is not directly related to the coagulopathy indicated by the prolonged PT. Important for overall fluid management but not directly related to the risk of bleeding. With a significantly prolonged PT, assessing for signs of gastrointestinal bleeding is a priority. Important for safety, but the immediate risk of bleeding due to coagulopathy takes precedence.
