问题 单项选择题

A client who is breast-feeding has a temperature of 102°F (38.9℃) and complains that her breasts are engorged. Her breasts are swollen, hard, and red. Which of the following actions would be inappropriate in managing the client's breast engorgement

A.Applying frozen cabbage leaves to the breasts.

B.Encouraging the client to shower with her back to the water.

C.Encouraging the client to nurse her baby frequently.

D.Applying a breast binder to support the breasts.

答案

参考答案:D

解析:Engorgement in a breast-feeding woman requires careful management to preserve the milk supply while managing the increased blood flow to the breasts. Binding the breasts isn't appropriate because the constriction will diminish the milk supply. Frozen cabbage leaves work well to reduce the pain and swelling and should be applied every 4 hours. Facing the shower head can stimulate the breasts and intensify the problem. Frequent feedings will permit the breasts to empty fully and establish the supply-demand cycle that is appropriate for the infant.
