A client comes to a primary care provider's office for a follow-up on their gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD). The provider has decided to screen the client for Barrett esophagus due to the patient struggling with symptoms for many years. The nurse should provide instruction on which diagnostic procedure?

Choice A reason: This is not a statement that indicates a need for further teaching. The client should avoid alcohol and other substances that can harm the liver, as adalimumab can increase the risk of liver toxicity and hepatitis.

Choice B reason: This is a statement that indicates a need for further teaching. The client should not take naproxen and aspirin as needed for pain relief, as these are nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) that can increase the risk of bleeding and gastrointestinal ulcers. Adalimumab can also increase the risk of bleeding and ulcers, as it suppresses the immune system and the inflammatory response.

Choice C reason: This is not a statement that indicates a need for further teaching. The client should report any signs of infection or fever to the doctor, as adalimumab can increase the risk of serious infections and sepsis. Adalimumab can also mask the symptoms of infection, such as inflammation and pain.

Choice D reason: This is not a statement that indicates a need for further teaching. The client should inject the medication under the skin of the abdomen or thigh, as this is the recommended route and site for adalimumab administration.

Choice A reason: Monitoring respiratory status for signs and symptoms of pulmonary complications is a priority nursing intervention for a client with hypervolemia. Hypervolemia is a condition where there is excess fluid in the blood vessels, which can cause fluid to leak into the lungs and impair gas exchange. The nurse should assess the client for signs of pulmonary edema, such as dyspnea, crackles, cough, and pink-tinged sputum.

Choice B reason: Encouraging the client to consume sodium-free fluids is not a priority nursing intervention for a client with hypervolemia. Sodium-free fluids may still contribute to fluid overload, especially if the client has impaired renal function or heart failure. The nurse should limit the client's fluid intake and administer diuretics as prescribed to reduce the fluid volume.

Choice C reason: Weighing dressings with a large-bore catheter is not a priority nursing intervention for a client with hypervolemia. This may be a relevant intervention for a client with hemorrhage, who may lose blood through a large-bore catheter or dressing. The nurse should monitor the client's blood pressure, pulse, and hemoglobin levels for signs of blood loss.

Choice D reason: Drawing a blood sample for typing and cross-matching is not a priority nursing intervention for a client with hypervolemia. This may be a relevant intervention for a client who needs a blood transfusion, which may be indicated for a client with anemia, trauma, or surgery. The nurse should check the client's blood type and compatibility before administering any blood products.
