A male client with sickle cell anemia, who has been hospitalized for another health
problem, tells the nurse he has had an erection for over 4 hours. What action should the
nurse implement first?

Prepare a warm enema solution for rectal instillation.
Obtain a large bore needle for aspiration of the corpora cavernosa. – – correct ans-
Notify the client’s healthcare provider.
Priapism, a urologic emergency, is common during sickle cell crisis due to sickle cells
clogging the microcirculation in the penis, causing a reduction of blood flow and
oxygenation to the penis, so the healthcare provider should be first notified
immediately. The prescribed therapy may consist of noninvasive measures such as
applying ice to the penis, instilling a warm solution enema to increase outflow in the
corpora cavernosa and giving pain medications. If noninvasive measures do not work,
then needle aspiration of the corpora cavernosa is implemented by the healthcare
provider.
