I have this feeling of pain and pressure in my pelvis." Client reports general malaise and chills. Uterus firm at the umbilicus and tender to palpation. Moderate amount of

dark foul-smelling lochia noted. Generalized perineal edema observed. Frequently voiding large amounts of urine. Client reports an abdominal pain level of 5 on a scale of 0 to 10. Diagnostic Results Hemoglobin 10 mg/dL (12 to 16 mg/dL, pregnant > 11 g/dL), Hematocrit 37% (37 to 47%, pregnant > 33%), WBC count 37,000/mm3 (5,000 to 10,000 mm3) Action to Take A.

Encourage client to drink large amounts of fluids. Potential Condition A. Endometrisis B. Vaginal laceration C. Hematoma D. UTI Parameter to Monitor A. Bladder distention B. Hemoglobin and hematorit levels C. Diameter of edematous area D. Lochia amount and odor E. Temperature correct answersAction to Take A. Plan to administer IV antibiotics. C. Obtain a culture of vaginal fluid using a sterile swab.

Potential Condition A. Endometrisis Parameter to Monitor D. Lochia amount and odor E. Temperature The nurse should plan to obtain a culture of vaginal fluid and to administer IV antibiotics because the client is most likely experiencing endometritis as evidenced by increased pelvic pain, pressure and tenderness, fever, and foul-smelling vaginal discharge. The client had an increased risk of developing endometritis due to the history of anemia, gestational diabetes, operative vaginal birth, and prolonged rupture of membranes. The nurse should plan to monitor the client's temperature and the amount and odor of the lochia. Clients who have endometritis have an increased risk of hemorrhage. A decrease of foul-smelling lochia and fever indicate progression toward resolution of the infection. A nurse is providing teaching to a client about the physiological changes that occur during pregnancy. The client is at 10 weeks of gestation and has a BMI within the expected reference range.
