Question 1 of 5
The unlicensed assistive personnel (UAP) reports the vital signs for a first-day postoperative client as T 100.8°F, P 80, R 24, and BP 148/80. Which intervention would be most appropriate for the nurse to implement?
Correct Answer: C
Rationale: A low-grade fever (100.8°F) and tachypnea (R 24) suggest atelectasis; turning, coughing, and deep breathing prevent respiratory complications. Antibiotics, dressing changes, and ambulation are secondary.
