A nurse in a provider’s office is caring for a client who asks about using acupuncture to manage his osteoarthritis pain.

The nurse should identify which of the following conditions is a contraindication for receiving this treatment.

Previous violent behavior. According to the web search results, this is the best predictor of future violence among the given risk factors.
Other risk factors include past history of aggression, poor impulse control, and violence. Comorbidity that leads to acts of violence (psychotic delusions, command hallucinations, violent angry reactions with cognitive disorders).
Choice A is wrong because a history of being in prison is not a direct cause of violence, but rather a possible consequence of it.
Choice C is wrong because male gender is not a sufficient factor to predict violence, as there are many other variables involved.
Choice D is wrong because experiencing delusions is not necessarily associated with violence unless they are of a paranoid or persecutory nature.
Normal ranges for violence risk assessment are not standardized, but some tools that can be used include the Historical Clinical Risk Management-20 (HCR-20), the Violence Risk Appraisal Guide (VRAG), and the Psychopathy Checklist-Revised (PCL-R). These tools use different scales and criteria to evaluate the likelihood of violent behavior in individuals.

Fish is a good source of protein and omega-3 fatty acids, which can help lower blood pressure, reduce inflammation, and prevent blood clots. Fish is also low in sodium, which is important for people with hypertension, as excess sodium can raise blood pressure by retaining fluid in the body. Fish is part of the DASH diet, which stands for Dietary Approaches to Stop Hypertension, and is a healthy eating plan that emphasizes fruits, vegetables, whole grains, low-fat dairy, nuts, seeds, legumes, and lean meats.

Choice A. Cheese is wrong because cheese is high in sodium and saturated fat, which can increase blood pressure and cholesterol levels.
Cheese should be limited or avoided by people with hypertension.

Choice C. Red meat is wrong because red meat is also high in sodium and saturated fat, as well as cholesterol, which can contribute to hypertension and heart disease.
Red meat should be eaten sparingly or replaced by leaner sources of protein like fish, poultry, or beans.

Choice D. Canned black beans are wrong because canned black beans are high in sodium, as most canned foods are preserved with salt. Canned black beans should be rinsed well before eating or replaced by dried or cooked black beans, which are lower in sodium and high in fiber, potassium, magnesium, and calcium, which are beneficial for blood pressure control.
