The nurse notes hypoactive bowel sounds, and the client reports no bowel movement in 3 days. The abdominal incision is well approximated with staples intact, with a small amount of sanguineous drainage present on the dressing. The lung sounds are diminished at the bases. The abdomen is soft with expected incisional tenderness. During assessment, the client is arousal to voice but quickly falls back asleep.
