Question 1 of 5

Which client problem is the nurse’s priority concern for the client diagnosed with acute pancreatitis?

Correct Answer: D

Rationale: Acute pancreatitis is characterized by severe abdominal pain due to pancreatic inflammation and autodigestion. Pain relief is the priority concern, as it addresses the client’s immediate discomfort, improves patient comfort, and reduces physiological stress, which can exacerbate the condition. Using the ABCs (Airway, Breathing, Circulation) and Maslow’s hierarchy, pain is a physiological need that takes precedence. Impaired nutrition (1) is relevant but secondary, as clients are often NPO initially. Skin integrity (2) and anxiety (3) are lower priorities, as they are less immediate concerns in acute pancreatitis.
