A nurse is educating a client who is experiencing sleep disturbances and desires to decrease caffeine intake. Which of the following beverages should the nurse recommend?

A) The client tolerates a second dose of medication with no greater than 1 peripheral edema:
This does not directly indicate a therapeutic response to epinephrine for angioedema. Angioedema primarily involves swelling of deeper layers of the skin, often around the eyes and lips, and sometimes the throat, which can cause breathing difficulties. Tolerating a second dose of medication with minimal peripheral edema does not specifically address the acute respiratory effects of angioedema.

B) Respirations are unlabored:
This is the correct answer. Angioedema can cause swelling in the airways, leading to difficulty breathing. Epinephrine is used to reduce this swelling and improve airway patency. Unlabored respirations indicate that the airway is not obstructed, which means the epinephrine has successfully alleviated the swelling causing the angioedema.

C) Client reports decreased groin pain of 3 on a 1 to 10 scale:
Decreased groin pain is not relevant to the treatment of angioedema with epinephrine. Pain relief in the groin area does not indicate a therapeutic response to epinephrine, which is primarily used to address airway and anaphylactic symptoms.

D) The client's blood pressure when arising from resting position is at premedication levels:
While epinephrine can affect blood pressure, the main concern with angioedema is airway obstruction rather than blood pressure control. Normalizing blood pressure does not specifically indicate that the epinephrine has successfully treated the angioedema and improved the client's respiratory status.

B) Placing clean linen that touched the floor in the soiled linen bag: This action demonstrates an understanding of infection control principles because it prevents cross-contamination between clean and soiled linens. Placing clean linens that have come into contact with the floor in the soiled linen bag reduces the risk of spreading pathogens and maintains a clean environment for the client.

A) Placing the soiled linen on the floor before bagging it: This action increases the risk of contamination by exposing the linen to potentially contaminated surfaces. Placing soiled linen on the floor can spread pathogens and is not consistent with infection control practices.

C) Holding the soiled linen against her body while carrying it to the linen bag: This action increases the risk of contamination to the AP's clothing and skin. Contact with soiled linen can transfer pathogens to the caregiver's body, leading to the potential spread of infection.

D) Shaking the soiled linen to remove any toilet paper remnants: This action can aerosolize fecal matter and spread pathogens into the air and onto nearby surfaces. Shaking soiled linen increases the risk of contamination and is not recommended as part of infection control practices.
