2) A nurse is caring for a client who has uterine hypotonicity and is
experiencing postpartum hemorrhage. Which of the following
actions is the nurse's priority?
Check the client's capillary refill.
It is important for the nurse to monitor capillary refill in order to track
baseline data for this client. However, another action is the nurse's priority.
Massage the client's fundus.
Uterine hypotonicity and postpartum hemorrhage indicate that this client is
at the greatest risk for hypovolemic shock. This can compromise the
perfusion to the client's vital organs, causing death to occur. Therefore, the
nurse's priority is to massage the client's fundus in order to minimize blood
loss.
Insert an indwelling urinary catheter for the client.
It is important for the nurse to insert an indwelling urinary catheter in order
to assess the client for hypovolemia. However, another action is the nurse's
priority.
