Ati pn maternal newborn 2023 ( 50 Questions)

A nurse is reinforcing preoperative teaching with a client who is scheduled for a cesarean birth. Which of the following client statements indicates an understanding of the teaching?



Correct Answer: D

Choice A rationale

 

This statement is incorrect because after a cesarean birth, clients are usually started on clear liquids and then gradually progress to regular food as tolerated. Swallowing safety is related to anesthesia recovery, not cesarean birth recovery.

 

Choice B rationale

 

This statement is incorrect because the client does not need to stay flat on their back for 24 hours. Early ambulation is encouraged to prevent complications such as deep vein thrombosis and promote recovery.

 

Choice C rationale

 

This statement is incorrect because the urinary catheter is typically removed within 24 hours after surgery to reduce the risk of urinary tract infections and encourage normal bladder function.

 

Choice D rationale

 

This statement is correct because after a cesarean birth, the nurse will frequently assess the uterus for firmness and massage it as needed to prevent postpartum hemorrhage.
