The nurse checks the incision and notes the presence of wound dehiscence.
The nurse should take which immediate action?

A client who has undergone abdominal surgery calls the nurse and reports
that she just felt “something give way” in the abdominal incision. The
nurse checks the incision and notes thepresence of wound dehiscence.
The nurse should take which immediate action?
A. Document the findings
B. Contact the health care provider
C. Place the client in a supine position with the legs flat
D. Cover the abdominal wound with a sterile dressing moistened with
sterilesaline solution Correct
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
health care provider is notified, and the nurse documents the occurrence and the nursing actions
that were implemented in response.
Test-Taking Strategy: 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. Review the nursing actions to be taken immediately in the event of

2. 2.ID: 9477054249
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?
A. Notify the surgeon Correct
B. Continue the assessment
C. Check the client’s blood pressure
D. 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: Note the strategic word, immediate. Noting the words “brightred blood” will
assist in directing you to the correct option. Remember that the presence of bright-red blood
indicates active bleeding. Review the nursing actions to be taken immediately when bleeding occurs
after a tonsillectomy and adenoidectomy

3. 3.ID: 9477051455
A client who has just undergone surgery suddenly experiences chest pain,
dyspnea, and tachypnea. The nurse suspects that the client has a
pulmonary embolism and immediately sets about to take which action?
A. Preparing the client for a perfusion scan
B. Attaching the client to a cardiac monitor
C. Administering oxygen by way of nasal cannula Correct
D. Ensuring that the intravenous (IV) line is patent
Rationale: Pulmonary embolism is a life-threatening emergency. Oxygen is immediately
administered nasally to relieve hypoxemia, respiratory distress, and central cyanosis, and the
health care provideris notified. IV infusion lines are needed to administer medications or fluids. A
perfusion scan, among other tests, may be performed. The electrocardiogram is monitored for the
presence of dysrhythmias. Additionally, a urinary catheter may be inserted and blood for arterial
blood gas determinations drawn. The immediate priority, however, is the administration of oxygen.
Test-Taking Strategy: Focus on the client’s diagnosis and use the skills of prioritizing. Use the ABCs
(airway, breathing, and circulation) to find the correct option. Review the nursing actions to be taken
immediately in the event of pulmonary embolism
