A nurse is admitting a client with suspected appendicitis. Identify where the nurse will palpate to assess for pain at McBurney's point. (Selectable areas, or "Hot Spots," are outlined in the artwork below. Select only the outlined area that corresponds to your answer.)

Answer: The hot spot in the right lower quadrant that corresponds to this location. Locate the right anterior superior iliac spine (the bony prominence on the right side of the pelvis). Identify the umbilicus (navel). McBurney's point is roughly one-third of the distance from the anterior superior iliac spine to the umbilicus.
