Question 1 of 5
The type of stool that will be expelled into the ostomy bag by a client who has undergone surgery for an ileostomy will be:
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: The correct answer is A: liquid consistency. After ileostomy surgery, the client's stool will be liquid because the ileum, where most water absorption occurs, is bypassed. This results in a higher fluid content in the expelled stool.
Choice B is incorrect as bloody stool is abnormal and may indicate bleeding.
Choice C is incorrect as mucus-filled stool is more commonly seen in conditions like inflammatory bowel disease.
Choice D is incorrect as soft semi-formed stool indicates some degree of water absorption, which is not the case in ileostomy clients.
