Question 1 of 5
The pregnant client presents to the ED with a large amount of painless, bright red bleeding. She looks to be about 30 to 34 weeks pregnant based on her uterine size. She speaks limited English and is unable to communicate with the staff. Which actions should the nurse take? Select all that apply.
Correct Answer: A,B,C
Rationale: The nurse should call for an interpreter so that the client is able to communicate. An IV access should be performed by the nurse to administer any needed medications. Auscultating FHT will provide information about fetal well-being. Positioning the client in a lithotomy position can cause abdominal pain, and there is no indication that birth is imminent. The pregnant client who presents in later pregnancy should never have a digital pelvic examination because this could cause additional bleeding, especially if she has placenta previa.
