Practice Question

A nurse is verifying informed consent for a client who is preoperative for a vaginal hysterectomy. Which of the following statements should the nurse identify as an indication that the client has given informed consent?

Answer Choices:

A. "I should expect my periods to resume in 1 month."

B. "I will no longer need a regular gynecological examination."

C. "I am thankful I am done having children." ✓ Correct Answer

D. "I will have a large scar on my stomach after this procedure."

Correct Answer:

"I am thankful I am done having children."

Rationale:

🗯️ This statement shows that the client understands a key consequence of a vaginal hysterectomy—loss of fertility.

Acknowledging that she’s “done having children” reflects awareness of the procedure’s impact and supports that informed consent was given with understanding.

The other options reflect misunderstandings:

🗯️ Periods will not resume after hysterectomy.

🗯️ Gynecological exams are still recommended.

🗯️ Vaginal hysterectomy does not leave an abdominal scar.
