Laboratory Results
38-year-old primiparous client is seen in the outpatient obstetric office 2 weeks postpartum after a spontaneous vaginal birth of a full-term infant after rupture of membranes for 16 hours. The client was discharged on day 2, exclusively breastfeeding.
Which description(s) by the client should help confirm that the mastitis has been resolved and breastfeeding/breast health is well maintained? Select all that apply.
Correct answer
D,G
Rationale
Normal temperature, resolved redness, and effective breastfeeding every 2-3 hours in varied positions confirm mastitis resolution. Creased nipples, persistent pain, or exclusive pumping suggest ongoing issues.
