A nurse is assisting in the care of a client who has bipolar disorder and is experiencing mania. Which of the following actions should the nurse take to promote a therapeutic environment?

A. This scenario involves the issue of informed consent and medical ethics rather than libel. It pertains to the client's right to make decisions about their treatment. While administering medication without consent could have legal and ethical implications, it does not relate to libel.
B. This is an example of negligence or breach of duty, which could result in harm to the client. It pertains to safety protocols and standards of care rather than libel. Properly securing a client in a wheelchair is crucial for their safety and is not related to libel.
C. This example involves ethical considerations around coercion and restraint use. Threatening to apply restraints without a legitimate reason or following proper protocols could be considered a violation of

the client's rights. However, it does not constitute libel, as it does not involve false statements that harm someone's reputation through written or broadcasted communication.
D. This is an example of libel. Documenting false information about a client's substance use history can damage their reputation and potentially lead to negative consequences for the client, such as improper treatment or legal ramifications. Accurate and truthful documentation is essential in healthcare to ensure proper care and respect for the client's rights.

A. Fluoxetine is not indicated for the treatment of seizures. Its primary therapeutic effect is related to mood stabilization through serotonin reuptake inhibition in the brain. Therefore, absence of seizures would not be an expected outcome of fluoxetine therapy.
B. Hand tremors are not typically a direct symptom of depression or anxiety but can occur as a side effect of certain medications or due to anxiety-related physiological responses. Fluoxetine itself does not typically cause or treat hand tremors directly. Therefore, while tremor reduction might occur as a result of improved mood and reduced anxiety, it is not a direct therapeutic outcome of fluoxetine.
C. Improved mood is one of the primary expected outcomes of fluoxetine therapy. SSRIs like fluoxetine work by increasing serotonin levels in the brain, which helps regulate mood and alleviate symptoms of depression and anxiety. Clients typically experience a reduction in feelings of sadness, hopelessness, and anxiety, leading to an overall improvement in mood.
D. Hallucinations are not a typical symptom of depression or anxiety disorders but can occur in conditions such as schizophrenia or psychotic depression. Fluoxetine is not primarily indicated for treating hallucinations.
