A nurse is assisting with the care of a client.

Exhibits

The nurse is reinforcing teaching for the client and their family about potential adverse effects of the client's prescribed medications.

For each potential adverse effect, click to specify if the effect is. consistent with agranulocytosis, neuroleptic malignant syndrome, or. serotonin syndrome.

Each finding may support more than 1 disease process.

Choice A rationale:

Ice cream. Ice cream is not typically recommended for individuals with irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) as it contains dairy, which can exacerbate gastrointestinal symptoms in some people with lactose intolerance or dairy sensitivity. It may also be high in sugar, which can worsen IBS symptoms for some individuals.

Choice B rationale:

Honey. Honey is generally well-tolerated by individuals with IBS and can be used as a natural sweetener in moderation. However, it is not specifically recommended as a dietary inclusion for managing IBS symptoms.

Choice C rationale:

Watermelon. Watermelon is a low-fiber fruit that may be well-tolerated by some individuals with IBS, especially during periods of symptom flare-ups. However, it does not provide the beneficial probiotics and digestive enzymes found in yogurt, which can be helpful for some IBS patients.

Choice D rationale:

Yogurt. Yogurt, especially varieties containing live probiotic cultures, can be beneficial for individuals with IBS. Probiotics may help improve gut health and alleviate some gastrointestinal symptoms associated with IBS. It is often recommended as a dietary inclusion for those with IBS.

Choice A rationale:

"Instruct the client to take a brisk walk." Rationale: This action is not appropriate for a pregnant client experiencing dizziness, a racing heart, and pallor while lying on their back. It may exacerbate their symptoms and is not recommended.

Choice B rationale:

"Position the client on their left side." Rationale: This is the correct action to take. The client's symptoms, such as dizziness, racing heart, and pallor, suggest that they may be experiencing supine hypotensive syndrome, a common issue in pregnancy. Placing the client on their left side helps relieve pressure on the inferior vena cava, improving blood flow to the fetus and reducing symptoms.

Choice C rationale:

"Check the client's temperature." Rationale: Checking the client's temperature is not the most relevant action to address the reported symptoms. Dizziness, racing heart, and pallor are not typically associated with fever.

Choice D rationale:

"Provide the client with a glass of orange juice." Rationale: While providing orange juice can be helpful in some cases of low blood sugar (hypoglycemia), it is not the primary intervention for a pregnant client with the reported symptoms. These symptoms are more indicative of supine hypotensive syndrome, and the priority is to change the client's position to alleviate the condition.
