question

When palpating a client's fundus on the second postpartum day, a nurse determines that it is above the umbilicus and displaced to the right. What does the nurse conclude?

1

There is a slow rate of involution.

2

There are retained placental fragments.

3

The uterine ligaments are overstretched.

4

The bladder has become overdistended.

    I will do your homework if you work my 12 hour shift tonight. Do we have a deal? :saint:

    Welcome! I assume you are a student. This thread has been moved to the Nursing Student Assistance forum.

    I bet the answer is in your OB textbook. When you find it there, let us know so we can answer any further confusion about this.

    Well. Can you answer the question WITHOUT the answers?

    A) where should the fundus be at 2 days postpartum

    B) what would cause the uterus to be displaced?

    Look back at your textbook under postpartum assessments, maybe in the section that mentions BUBBLE-EE.

    This is a very easy and straightforward question/answer
