A nurse cares for four patients who are receiving clozapine, lithium, fluoxetine, and venlafaxine, respectively. For which patient should the nurse be most alert for alterations in cardiac or cerebral electrical conductivity as well as fluid and electrolyte imbalance? The patient receiving:

A. Allow the client to pace alone until physically tired: While pacing can be a coping mechanism, leaving the client alone may not be the most therapeutic approach. It is important for the nurse to provide support and assess the client's emotional state.

B. Walk with the client at a gradually slower pace: This is the correct answer. Walking with the client at a gradually slower pace allows the nurse to offer support and engage in therapeutic communication. It provides a calming presence and can assist the client in self-regulating their anxiety.

C. Have a staff member escort the client to her room: Escorting the client to her room might be perceived as restrictive or punitive. It is generally more beneficial to engage in supportive interventions and encourage coping strategies.

D. Instruct the client to sit down and stop pacing: Giving direct orders to stop pacing may increase anxiety and may not be an effective approach. It is often better to engage in a supportive manner and explore ways to help the client manage their anxiety.

A. These programs help clients correct distorted body image:

While behavioral programs may incorporate components related to body image, the primary focus is often on addressing and modifying specific behaviors associated with eating disorders, such as binge eating, purging, or restrictive eating.

B. These programs help clients manage uncontrollable behaviors:

This is the correct answer. Behavior modification programs aim to address and modify specific behaviors that contribute to eating disorders. This can include establishing healthier eating patterns, reducing binge-purge cycles, and promoting more adaptive coping strategies.

C. These programs allow clients to maintain control:

While the concept of control is relevant to eating disorders, behavior modification programs are designed to help clients gain control over maladaptive behaviors and establish healthier patterns. It's not about maintaining control over the disorder itself.

D. These programs address underlying client anger:

While emotions, including anger, may play a role in eating disorders, behavior modification programs are more focused on targeting and modifying specific behaviors rather than addressing underlying emotions directly. Emotional aspects may be addressed through additional therapeutic interventions
