1,2 -- The nurse holds pressure at the percutaneous site of a renal biopsy for 20 minutes after the procedure. The patient is at risk for bleeding and should not use aspirin as an over-the-counter pain reliever immediately after a renal biopsy, as it will promote bleeding. Options 3, 4, and 5 are all correct.
Don't forget to give me a thumbs up!
