A yclient ywho yrecently yimmigrated yto ythe yUnited yStates yfrom yKorea yis yhospitalized ywith ysecond- yand
y third-degree yburns. yHe yspeaks ylittle yEnglish yand yhas ybeen ylying yquietly yin ybed. yTen yhours yafter ythe
y client's yadmission, ythe ynurse yconducts ya yserial yassessment yand yasks yhim ywhether yhe's yin ypain. yHe
smiles yand yshakes yhis yhead yvigorously yback yand yforth. yWhich ynursing yaction yis yappropriate yat ythis
y
y time?
1. Documenting ythat ythe yclient yis yresting yquietly yand ydenies ypain
2. Calling ya yfamily ymember yto yobtain yinformation yabout ythe yclient
3. Giving ythe yclient ythe yordered yas-needed ypain ymedication
4. Checking yvital ysigns yand yassessing yfor ynonverbal yindications yof
pain yCorrect yanswer: y4
y
RATIONALE: yThe ynurse yshould yconsider ythe ypossibility ythat ythe yclient ydidn't yunderstand ythe yquestion yor
has ybeen yconditioned yculturally ynot yto ycomplain yopenly yof ypain. yChecking yvital ysigns yand yassessing yfor
y
nonverbal yindications yof ypain yhelp ythe ynurse ydetermine ywhether ythe yclient yis yin ypain. yAccepting ythe
y
client's yresponse ywithout yquestion yor yfurther yassessment ymay yresult yin yinadequate yintervention. yCalling
y
the yfamily yor ygiving ypain ymedication yisn't ywarranted yat ythis ytime ybecause ythe yclient ydenies ypain yand
y
the ynurse yneeds yto yobtain ymore yinformation. yCLIENT yNEEDS yCATEGORY: yPhysiological yintegrity yCLIENT

3. "I ywill yadminister ythe yenema ywhile ylying yon ymy yright yside ywith ymy yleft yknee yflexed."
4. "I ywill yadminister ythe yenema ywhile ylying yon ymy yback ywith yboth yknees
