单项选择题
A client is experiencing an early postpartum hemorrhage. Which action is inappropriate
A.Inserting an indwelIing urinary catheter.
B.Fundal massage.
C.Administration of oxytoxics.
D.Pad count.
答案
参考答案:D
解析:By the time the client is hemorrhaging, a pad count is no longer appropriate. Inserting an indwelling urinary catheter eliminates the possibility that a full bladder may be contributing to the hemorrhage. Fundal massage is appropriate to ensure that the uterus is well contracted, and oxytoxics may be ordered to promote sustained uterine contraction.
