A nurse is caring for a client who is pregnant and has a vaginal culture that is positive for chlamydia. Which of the following medications should the nurse plan to administer?

A) Incorrect- Kegel exercises are helpful for strengthening pelvic floor muscles but may not directly alleviate afterpains.
B) Correct - Afterpains are uterine contractions that occur after childbirth and can be uncomfortable, especially during breastfeeding. Ibuprofen is often used to relieve this discomfort.
C) Incorrect- Applying a cool compress might provide some relief, but pain relief medications like ibuprofen are more effective for afterpains.
D) Incorrect- While a side-lying position can be comfortable for breastfeeding, it may not directly address the afterpains.

A) Glucose level might need to be assessed if there are signs of hypoglycemia or other concerns.
B) Mucous membrane assessment: Dry mucous membranes might indicate dehydration or other issues that need further evaluation.
C. Respiratory rate: The respiratory rate is not provided in the assessment, so there's no basis to report it. The assessment did not mention any abnormal respiratory rate.
D) The sclera color indicates that the newborn has jaundice, which is a common condition in newborns but requires monitoring and treatment to prevent complications.
E. Intake and output: Intake and output are not mentioned in the assessment, so there's no basis to report it. This information is not provided in the assessment findings.
F) The Coombs test result is important for assessing the presence of antibodies that could lead to hemolytic disease of the newborn due to blood type incompatibility with the mother, which can also cause jaundice and other serious problems.
G. Heart rate: The heart rate is not mentioned in the assessment, so there's no basis to report it. The assessment did not mention any abnormal heart rate.
H) Head assessment findings, such as soft and flat fontanels along with a molded head, should be communicated for further evaluation. The head assessment finding of caput succedaneum is a swelling of the scalp caused by pressure during delivery, which usually resolves within a few days but can increase the risk of jaundice and infection.
