A Maintaining proper fluid balance will not control hemorrhage.
B This is an important assessment, but hemorrhage will first be noted vaginally.
C Maintaining contraction of the uterus is important in controlling bleeding from
the placental site.
D This is an important assessment to prevent future hemorrhaging from occurring,
but it is not the first priority assessment in the recovery room.
