Simulated
The Gravida 7 Para 6 client delivered a 9-pound 4-ounce infant two (2) hours ago. Which intervention is priority for the nurse to implement?
Correct answer
A
Rationale
Fundal assessment every hour post-delivery prevents postpartum hemorrhage, a life-threatening risk in high-parity clients with large infants. Voiding, birth control, and breastfeeding are secondary.
