Correct Answer is A

Explanation

The nurse’s priority assessment in the PACU (Post-Anesthesia Care Unit) should be the client’s respiratory status.

This is because the client is recovering from anesthesia and may have an altered respiratory function.
Choice B, assessing the surgical site, is not an answer because it is not the priority assessment for a client in the PACU.
Choice C, assessing the level of consciousness, is not an answer because it is not the priority assessment for a client in the PACU.
Choice D, assessing the pain level, is not an answer because it is not the priority assessment for a client in the PACU.

A. "I will perform strength-building arm exercises using a 15-pound weight.". B. "l will have to wait 2 months before additional saline can be added to my breast expander.". C. "I will keep my left arm flexed at the elbow as much as possible.". D. "I should expect less than 25 mL of secretions per day in the drainage devices.".

Correct Answer is D

Explanation

“I should expect less than 25 mL of secretions per day in the drainage devices.” After a mastectomy with breast reconstruction using a tissue expander, you may go home with drains in your chest to remove extra fluid.

Choice A is wrong because performing strength-building arm exercises using a 15-pound weight is not recommended.
Choice B is wrong because waiting 2 months before additional saline can be added to the breast expander is not accurate.
Choice C is wrong because keeping the left arm flexed at the elbow as much as possible is not recommended.
