1/115
, Module 9 Exam: NUR2811: Nursing Capstone
Rationale: Wound dehiscence is the disruption of a surgical
incision or wound. When dehiscence occurs, the nurse
immediately places the client in a low Fowler’s position or supine
with the knees bent and instructs the client to lie quietly. These
actions will minimize protrusion of the underlying tissues. The
nurse then covers the wound with a sterile dressing moistened with
sterile saline. The primary health care provider is notified, and the
nurse documents the occurrence and the nursing actions that were
implemented in response.
Test-Taking Strategy: Focus on the subject, wound dehiscence.
Note the strategic word "immediate." Visualize this occurrence
and recall that the primary concern when wound dehiscence
occurs is the protrusion of underlying tissues. This will direct you to
the correct option.

of wound dehiscence

Question 2 pts
A client who just returned from the recovery room after a tonsillectomy
and adenoidectomy is restless and the pulse rate is increased. As the
nurse continues the assessment, the client begins to vomit a copious
amount of bright-red blood. The nurse should take which immediate
action?
Correct! Notify the surgeon
Continue the assessment
2/115
, Module 9 Exam: NUR2811: Nursing Capstone
Check the client’s blood pressure
Obtain a flashlight, gauze, and a curved hemostat
Rationale: Hemorrhage is a potential complication after
tonsillectomy and adenoidectomy. If the client vomits a large
amount of bright-red blood or the pulse rate increases and the
patient is restless, the nurse must notify the surgeon immediately.
The nurse should obtain a light, mirror, gauze, curved hemostat,
and waste basin to facilitate examination of the surgical site. The
nurse should also gather additional assessment data, but the
surgeon must be contacted immediately.
Test-Taking Strategy: Focus on the subject, client hemorrhaging
after a tonsillectomy and adenoidectomy. Note the strategic word,
"immediate.” Noting the words “bright-red blood” will assist in
directing you to the correct option. Remember that the presence of
bright-red blood indicates active bleeding.

bleeding occurs after a tonsillectomy and adenoidectomy

Question 3 pts

dyspnea, and tachypnea. The nurse suspects that the client has a
pulmonary embolism and immediately sets about to take which action?
Preparing the client for a perfusion scan
