A client who has atrial fibrillation is prescribed warfarin therapy.
Which of the following statements by the client indicates an understanding of the medication?

Choice A rationale:

The client's statement, "I should avoid foods that are high in vitamin K," indicates an understanding of the medication. Warfarin is an anticoagulant medication that works by inhibiting vitamin K-dependent clotting factors. Consistent intake of vitamin K-containing foods helps maintain a stable INR (International Normalized Ratio) and warfarin's effectiveness. Clients on warfarin should be educated about avoiding drastic changes in their vitamin K intake.

Choice B rationale:

Taking warfarin with food or on an empty stomach doesn't significantly impact its efficacy. Therefore, this statement is not indicative of the client's understanding of the medication.

Choice C rationale:

The statement "I should report any unusual bleeding or bruising to my provider" is important but doesn't specifically reflect an understanding of warfarin. It's a general caution for anyone taking anticoagulants.

Choice D rationale:

While it's important to avoid excessive use of medications like aspirin that can increase the risk of bleeding, this statement doesn't directly demonstrate an understanding of warfarin itself.
