After a sustained elevated temperature, a client develops a fecal impaction. The LPN manually removes the fecal impaction. During the procedure, it is MOST important for the LPN/LVN to instruct the nursing assistant to perform which of the following activities?

A. Procure extra packets of lubricant.
B. Prepare to administer a low-volume enema.
C. Hold the client's hand.

Prepare to administer a low-volume enema.

Explanation:

Fecal impaction may be defined as the medical condition in which dry mass or hard mass of the stool that remains in the rectum. This hinders the waste process formation in the body.

The LPN (Licensed practical nurse) can handle the patient easily. The low volume edema can be administer to the patient because this might help in the softening of the feces that are not easily accessible. This edema also helpful in the passage of the waste material.

Thus, the correct answer is option (B).

when the displaced particles are perpendicular to the direction the wave travels, is called a transverse wave, whereas in longitudinal wave the displace practices are parallel to the direction of the wave.
