Question 1 of 1
1. Question
A client with pancreatitis has been transferred to the intensive care unit. Which order would the nurse anticipate?
Correct
Answer B is correct.
Rationale: The client with pancreatitis frequently has nausea and vomiting. Lavage is often used to decompress the stomach and rest the bowel, so the insertion of a Levin tube should be anticipated. Answers A and C are incorrect because blood pressures are not required every 15 minutes, and cardiac monitoring might be needed, but this is individualized to the client. Answer D is incorrect because there are no dressings to change on this client.
