ATI RN Maternal Newborn 2023 Exam 4 Questions
Extract:
A nurse is caring for a client who delivered by cesarean birth 6 hours ago. The nurse notes a steady trickle of vaginal bleeding that does not stop with fundal massage.
Question 1 of 5
Which action should the nurse take?
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: The correct action is A: Administer 500 mL lactated Ringer's IV bolus. This choice is correct because the patient may be experiencing hypovolemia post-surgery, requiring fluid resuscitation to maintain hemodynamic stability. Evaluating urinary output (
B) is important but may not address the immediate need for fluid resuscitation. Applying an ice pack (
C) may be indicated for pain management but does not address potential hypovolemia. Replacing the surgical dressing (
D) is important for wound care but does not address the patient's fluid volume deficit.
