The nurse is caring for a hospitalized patient with an acutely inflamed gallbladder who states, “Suddenly, the pain is just gone. Can I go home?” What is the nurse’s best response?
1. “It is your choice. You are feeling better and not required to stay.”
2. “Please stay until your healthcare provider sees you tomorrow.”
3. “I will inform your healthcare provider of the change in your symptoms.”
4. “Yes, as soon as we perform the prescribed ultrasound of the gallbladder.”

3 -- Rupture of an acutely inflamed gallbladder may be heralded by abrupt but transient pain relief as contents are released from the distended gallbladder into the abdomen. Promptly report this change to the physician. Responses 1, 2 and 4 are dangerously inappropriate.
Don't forget to give me a thumbs up!
