مريض وصل الإفاقة بعد فتح بطن. تنفسه شخيري، تشبع الأكسجين ٨٨٪، ضغط ١٠٠/٦٠، على الضماد نزّ بسيط. ما أول إجراء؟

A client arrives in PACU after laparotomy with snoring respirations, SpO₂ 88%, BP 100/60 and slight drainage on the dressing. What is the first action?

1. Give IV naloxone before anything else
2. Reinforce the wound dressing and observe
3. Open the airway with a jaw thrust and stimulate him
4. Increase the IV fluid rate immediately

Answer: C) Open the airway with a jaw thrust and stimulate him. Snoring means upper-airway obstruction by the tongue. Open the airway first, then evaluate the need for naloxone.
