The nurse has established a goal to limit the amount of blood loss in a client with peptic ulcer discase (PUD) and GI bleeding. Which plan best correlates with the accomplishment of the goal? A. Administer blood products as appropriate B. Administer appropriate medications (antacids, histamine blockers) C. Monitor for fluid loss (bleeding, vomiting, and so on) D. Monitor vital signs, as appropriate

Let's break down the four choices and consider their relevance: A. Administer blood products as appropriate - This can help replace the lost blood, but it does not directly address the cause of the problem, which is GI bleeding. B. Administer appropriate medications (antacids, histamine blockers) - These medications could help reduce gastric acid secretion and promote the healing of peptic ulcers, which eventually may reduce GI bleeding. C. Monitor for fluid loss (bleeding, vomiting, and so on)- This option involves monitoring and keeping track of the symptoms, but it does not provide any intervention to minimize blood loss or treat the underlying issue. D. Monitor vital signs, as appropriate - Monitoring vital signs is important in this situation, but it does not provide a direct intervention to minimize blood loss or treat the underlying issue.

Comparing the four options, we can see that choice B, administering appropriate medications such as antacids and histamine blockers, is the most effective plan to address the root cause of the issue and limit the amount of blood loss in a client with PUD and GI bleeding.

Therefore, the best plan to limit the amount of blood loss in a client with PUD and GI bleeding is: B. Administer appropriate medications (antacids, histamine blockers)
