Postoperatively, the cataract client is nauseated. Appropriate nursing actions would be to: a. apply a cool cloth to her forehead; do not administer antiemetics until you can be certain she has a gag reflex.b. allow her to vomit, making certain her head is turned to the side to prevent aspiration.c. administer the ordered antiemetic immediately, even though she has not vomited.d. notify the physician, as nausea is a symptom of increased intracranial pressure.
