RN Comprehensive Predictor 2023 Proctored Exam
A nurse in a PACU is transferring care of a client to a nurse on the medical-surgical unit. Which of the following statements should the nurse include in the hand-off report?
Explanation & Rationale
A. Incorrect – Personal details (e.g., the client being a board member) are irrelevant and violate patient confidentiality. B. Correct – Estimated blood loss is a critical piece of information for postoperative assessment and fluid management. C. Incorrect – While intubation details are relevant in some cases, mentioning complication-free intubation does not add necessary clinical information for postoperative care. D. Incorrect – The number of sponges used is important for intraoperative safety, but postoperatively, estimated blood loss is more relevant to ongoing client care.
