After completing post anesthesia recovery assessments, the registered nurse (RN) asks the practical nurse (PN) to transfer four clients, each two hours post-birth, to the postpartum unit. Which client should the PN ask the RN to reassess prior to transfer?

This client should be reassessed by the RN prior to transfer, as worsening perineal pain may indicate a hematoma, infection, or inadequate pain management. The RN should inspect the perineum, check the vital signs, and evaluate the effectiveness of the medication. A multigravida whose peri-pad is 1/4 saturated with lochia rubra after one hour is normal, strong afterbirth pains during breastfeeding are expected in multiparous women, and a small clot is typical without excessive bleeding.
