The nurse should place the patient in lateral recovery position who is still drowsy from anesthesia and has been vomiting.

The lateral position, one of the four standard surgical patient positions, is used for treatments that need access to one side of the patient's body. The patient is in the lateral position, lying on one side. Back operations, surgery on the lower extremities, thoracic surgeries, ear, nose, and throat (ENT) surgeries, and kidney surgeries are a few typical procedures that may call for the patient to be positioned in the lateral position.

Surgery access to the thorax, kidney, retroperitoneal area, and hip which has anesthesia is performed from the lateral position. The patient will lie on their left or right side depending on which side of the body is being operated on.

True [87]

Answer:

D) Do CPR until the medical personell has arrived

Explanation:

It is best to continue life supporting efforts in the off chance that there is something that can be done or that there has been some human error in your assessment.  It is also practical to remove the child from the mother in case there was some harm done to the child. Doing CPR will keep the situation under control rather than telling the mother that the child is dead since you are not a medical doctor and it is not within your limits to do so while help is on the way.
