Twenty-four hours after a bone marrow aspiration, the nurse evaluates which of the following as an appropriate client outcome?
Correct answer
D
Rationale
A successful outcome 24 hours after bone marrow aspiration is no bleeding at the site, indicating proper healing and no complications. Bed rest is not required, redness/swelling suggests infection, and morphine requests indicate uncontrolled pain, which is not expected.
