Question 1 of 5
Which preoperative nursing interventions should be included for a client who is scheduled to have an emergency cesarean birth?
Correct Answer: C
Rationale: The correct answer is C because in an emergency cesarean birth, surgery must be performed quickly to ensure the safety of the mother and baby. Inserting an indwelling catheter is crucial to keep the bladder empty and prevent injury during the incision. This intervention helps maintain a sterile field and reduces the risk of infection. Additionally, a full bladder can impede the progress of surgery. Monitoring O2 saturations and administering pain medications (
A) are postoperative interventions and not relevant in the preoperative phase. Taking vital signs every 15 minutes (
B) is more appropriate for the postoperative period. Assessing breath sounds (
D) is important but typically done by the anesthesiologist during surgery. Instructing the client about breathing exercises (
B) may not be effective in an emergency situation where immediate interventions are necessary.
