Question 1 of 5

While assessing the client's abdomen, you note that the Jackson-Pratt drain's reservoir is expanded and half full of blood. Which is the appropriate action for you to take at this time?

Correct Answer: C

Rationale: The correct answer is C: Empty the reservoir. This is the appropriate action because an expanded and half-full Jackson-Pratt drain reservoir indicates an accumulation of fluids, which may lead to complications if not addressed promptly. By emptying the reservoir, you can prevent potential issues such as infection or blockage. Leaving it until the end of the shift (
A) is not advisable as it can lead to worsening of the condition. Removing the drain (
B) without proper assessment or instructions can be harmful to the client. Notifying the surgeon about the blood loss (
D) is important but should be done after taking immediate action to address the issue by emptying the reservoir.
