A. Providing guidance on incentive spirometry requires specialized knowledge and skill that should be provided by a licensed healthcare provider, such as a nurse.

B. A client who had a myocardial infarction 3 days ago and reports chest discomfort requires ongoing assessment and monitoring by a licensed healthcare provider, such as a nurse, due to the potential for cardiac complications.

C. Assisting a client who had a stroke 2 days ago and needs help toileting is a task that can be safely delegated to an assistive personnel, as long as the client's condition is stable and the assistive personnel has been trained in providing basic care.

D. Providing a drink to a client who has awoken following a bronchoscopy may require assessment and monitoring for potential complications, such as aspiration or respiratory distress, which should be provided by a licensed healthcare provider, such as a nurse.

A. "Wearing an underwire bra between feedings" can compress the breast tissue, potentially leading to milk stasis and increasing the risk of mastitis.

B. "Covering your breasts immediately after feedings" can trap moisture and warmth, creating an environment conducive to bacterial growth and increasing the risk of mastitis.

C. "Applying cold compresses to your breasts before feedings" may provide temporary relief for discomfort, but it is not a primary preventive measure for mastitis.

D. "Trying to have your baby empty your breasts with each feeding" helps ensure thorough milk removal, which can prevent milk stasis and decrease the risk of mastitis. This is the correct choice.
