2. Begin with the 'Breast Assessment' section. Palpate both breasts for engorgement and minimize palpation if the person is bottle-feeding. Check nipples for any sores or issues, ensuring you note their shape.
3. Move to the 'Uterus Assessment'. Record the fundus height above or below the umbilicus, noting its position and firmness. Adjust IV flow if necessary and follow the doctor's orders for medication.
4. In the 'Bladder Assessment' section, accompany the user to record the first two voidings, palpate for distention, and pay attention to signs of urinary tract infections.
5. Proceed to 'Bowel Assessment'. Check for the presence of bowel sounds, administer stool softeners if directed, and avoid enemas for those with significant lacerations.
6. In the 'Lochia Assessment', evaluate peripads for color, amount, and odor daily. Instruct the person to report any large clots or excessive bleeding.
7. Assess the episiotomy by using the REEDA method. Document any findings and teach the individual how to care for the episiotomy site appropriately.
8. Check for signs of Homan's Sign daily, monitor peripheral pulses, and look for potential edema. Be alert for any complications.
9. Finally, evaluate the emotional status through the three normal phases: 'Taking In', 'Taking Hold', and 'Letting Go'. Understand that postpartum blues can occur and offer support as needed.
10. After completing all sections, you can save changes, download, print, or share the Bubblehed Assessment as needed.
