History and Physical A 36-year-old client who is gravida 5 para 5 (GSP5) transferred to the postpartum unit 1 hour after delivery of a 9 lb 1 oz (4.1 kg) female. She was in labor for 25 hours and forceps were used to assist with the delivery. She was given an epidural for anesthesia that was effective. The labor and delivery nurse reported that the client had a 4th degree laceration, and her pain was currently at a 4 on a 0 to 10 pain scale. Her vital signs were stable, and she was catheterized for 500 mL of light yellow urine just prior to delivery. Her spouse was at the bedside for delivery and appeared supportive. Blood type A+. Estimated blood loss was 600 mL after delivery.

Nurses’ Notes Received GSP5 client 1 hour after delivery of a 9 lb 1 oz (4.1 kg) female. She was assisted to the bathroom where she voided 150 mL clear yellow urine. Lochia rubra moderate with small clots, no foul odor noted. Fundus firm at umbilicus. Episiotomy edges well approximated, no redness, edema, drainage, or ecchymosis. No pain, redness or swelling in calves. A 1,000 mL bag of lactated Ringer’s solution containing 10 units of oxytocin is infusing via an 18 gauge peripheral IV in the left forearm at 125 mL/hr, with 500 mL remaining in the bag. The IV is patent, without redness or swelling, and can be discontinued when this bag’s infusion is complete.

A patient weighing 132 lb is prescribed lorazepam 44 mcg/kg IV to be administered 20 minutes before a scheduled procedure.
