After a client has a C-section she needs to get up and take short walks to prevent what?
Hemorrhage.
Blood clots.
Breast engorgement.
Rupture of amniotic membranes.
The Correct Answer is B
Choice A rationale
Hemorrhage is not prevented by walking. Hemorrhage management involves monitoring and medical interventions, not ambulation.
Choice B rationale
Walking helps prevent blood clots by promoting circulation. Postoperative patients are encouraged to ambulate early to reduce the risk of deep vein thrombosis (DVT) and pulmonary embolism.
Choice C rationale
Breast engorgement is managed through breastfeeding or pumping, not walking. Ambulation does not directly affect breast engorgement.
Choice D rationale
Rupture of amniotic membranes is not relevant postpartum. This condition is related to labor and delivery, not postoperative care.

Correct Answer is D
Explanation
Choice A rationale
Rho(D) immune globulin is not indicated if both the client and the newborn are Rh positive. There is no risk of Rh incompatibility in this scenario.
Choice B rationale
Similarly, if both the client and the newborn are Rh positive, there is no need for Rho(D) immune globulin.
Choice C rationale
If both the client and the newborn are Rh negative, there is no risk of Rh incompatibility, and Rho(D) immune globulin is not needed.
Choice D rationale
Rho(D) immune globulin is indicated when the client is Rh negative and the newborn is Rh positive. This prevents the development of Rh antibodies in the client, which could affect future pregnancies.
