The nurse is caring for a client who had a hip replacement 2 days prior. Which
nursing intervention would the nurse perform next?
A. Provide perineal care
B. Turn and position the client
C. Give a complete bed bath
D. Document the bowel movement - Correct Answer-A. Provide perineal care
Rationale:
Providing perineal care helps preserve skin integrity for the client who is
incapable of providing self-care. Turning and positioning a client who has
decreased physical mobility after hip surgery is important in preventing skin
breakdown, but it is not an immediate client need. Giving a complete bed bath
is not necessary after each bowel movement because only the perineal area is
typically soiled. Documenting the bowel movement should be done only after
meeting immediate needs of the client.
To ensure the safety of a client who is receiving a continuous intravenous normal
saline infusion, the nurse would change the administration set how often?
A. Every 4 to 8 hours
B. Every 12 to 24 hours
C. Every 24 to 48 hours

D. Every 72 to 96 hours - Correct Answer-D. Every 72 to 96 hours
Rationale:
Best practice guidelines recommend replacing administration sets no more
frequently than 72 to 96 hours after initiation of use in clients not receiving
blood, blood products, or fat emulsions. This evidence-based practice is safe and
cost effective. Changing the administration set every 4 to 48 hours is not a cost-
effective practice.

trusts in his or her own reasoning process.
