A nurse is assessing a client for allergies prior to administering the influenza vaccine.
The nurse should identify that an allergy to which of the following foods is a contraindication to receiving this vaccine?

Choice A rationale:

Instructing the client to "Lie down for 30 min after meals" is an inappropriate recommendation for managing heartburn during pregnancy. Lying down after meals allows stomach acid from flowing back into the esophagus, worseningheartburn symptoms.

Choice B rationale:

Eating a high-fat snack at bedtime is not advisable for managing heartburn. Fatty foods can relax the lower esophageal sphincter, allowing stomach acid to flow back into the esophagus and worsen heartburn symptoms. Avoiding high-fat snacks close to bedtime is a more appropriate recommendation.

Choice C rationale:

Sipping carbonated beverages throughout the day can exacerbate heartburn symptoms. Carbonated beverages, including sodas and sparkling water, can increase stomach acid and contribute to heartburn. Therefore, advising the client to avoid carbonated beverages is more appropriate for managing heartburn during pregnancy.

Choice D rationale:

Drinking hot herbal tea alleviates the heartburn symptoms and is recommended in pregnancy.

Allow for frequent rest periods throughout the day.

• A. Perform ADLs for the client to promote rest. This is incorrect because performing ADLs for the client can increase their dependence and decrease their self-esteem. The nurse should encourage the client to perform ADLs as much as possible, with assistance as needed, to maintain their function and mobility.
• B. Allow for frequent rest periods throughout the day. This is correct because rest periods can help reduce fatigue and pain, as well as prevent joint damage and inflammation. The nurse should balance rest and activity for the client and avoid overexertion.
• C. Use heat to reduce joint inflammation. This is incorrect because heat can increase inflammation and pain in acute rheumatoid arthritis. The nurse should use cold applications to reduce swelling and inflammation in acute episodes, and use heat for chronic stiffness and pain. - D. Develop a daily schedule for acetaminophen up to 6 g/day that covers peak periods of pain. This is incorrect because acetaminophen has a maximum daily dose of 4 g/day, and exceeding this dose can cause liver toxicity. The nurse should monitor the client's liver function and use other analgesics as prescribed.
