A nurse is planning care for a client who is scheduled for a cesarean birth. Which of the following interventions should the nurse include in the plan of care?
Explanation & Rationale
A. An indwelling urinary catheter is typically inserted before surgery, not immediately after, to keep the bladder empty during the procedure. B. Applying sequential compression devices prior to the procedure is a key intervention to prevent deep vein thrombosis, which is a high-risk complication for clients undergoing cesarean birth. C. Performing a surgical timeout is important but is a standard surgical protocol rather than a nursing-specific intervention for cesarean birth preparation. D. Oxytocin is administered after delivery of the placenta to promote uterine contraction and prevent postpartum hemorrhage, not before surgery.
