The nurse working in emergency triage is evaluating a client with injuries frequently associated with physical abuse. Which of the following questions if answered yes by the client would indicate a higher risk of mortality?
"Do you have a gun in your home?"
"Have you ever tried to leave?"
"How many times have you been hospitalized for abuse?"
"Do you have a plan if things go too far?"
The Correct Answer is A
Rationale:
A. The presence of a gun in the home is associated with a higher risk of severe injury or death in cases of domestic violence.
B. While trying to leave can be risky, it does not directly indicate a higher risk of mortality compared to other factors.
C. Repeated hospitalizations indicate ongoing abuse but are not as directly related to immediate risk of mortality as the presence of a gun.
D. Having a plan could indicate awareness and preparation, which may not directly correlate with immediate risk of mortality.
