Question 1 of 5
The postoperative client complains of hearing a 'popping sound' and feeling 'something opening' when ambulating in the room. Which intervention should the nurse implement first?
Correct Answer: C
Rationale: A popping sound and opening sensation suggest dehiscence or evisceration; assessing and covering with a moist dressing stabilizes the site, the first step. Notification and surgery prep follow, and dismissing the symptom is unsafe.
