Answer: Monitoring for any change in color and edema at the injury site
Health education on self care of the colostomy
Fluid resuscitation (may also be considered medical care)
Patient diet should be monitored as patient should be on a liquid diet.
Explanation:
1) we are monitoring for any change in color at the site of injury, because of infection. If there is infection there is likely to be change in color of injury site.
Edema is a swelling, If there is a swelling at the injury site post operation, then it means something is wrong.
We then act because we don’t want sepsis to set in.
Fluid resuscitation because it is likely that patient becomes dehydrated post operation.
Also Patient’s diet is monitored because of the surgery we don’t want patient to be taking solid food so as to prevent an irritation of the gastrointestinal tract.
Speaking clearly, letting the person know excastly what you are thinking/feeling
Arteries might be the answer
