Homework Answers
Ans) Massage the client's fundus
Explaination:
Fundal massage, also called uterine massage, is a technique used to reduce bleeding and cramping of the uterus after childbirth or after an abortion. As the uterus returns to its nonpregnant size, its muscles contract strongly, which can cause pain.
Thus after notifying the health care provider about hypovolemic shock due to postpartum haemorrhage, the nurse must massage the client's fundus.
