A nurse is providing dietary teaching to a client who has an increased cholesterol level.
Which of the following foods should the nurse recommend?

A.

A. Changing clothes after working in the field helps prevent pesticide residue from being transferred to other surfaces and reduces the risk of exposure to pesticides.

B. Applying petroleum jelly to the nostrils is not an effective method for minimizing exposure to pesticides and may not provide significant protection.

C. Wiping fruits and vegetables with a dry cloth may remove some surface dirt but is unlikely to effectively remove pesticide residues, especially if they have been absorbed into the produce.

D. Taking a hot shower after finishing work may help remove pesticide residues from the skin but does not address the potential for exposure from contaminated clothing or other surfaces.

A. Apply oxygen at 3 L/min per nasal cannula: While oxygenation is important, there is no

indication in the scenario that the client requires oxygen supplementation at this time. Checking oxygen saturation would be more relevant if there were respiratory concerns.

B. Review the chest x-ray report: This is the most appropriate action before initiating the IV

infusion to ensure proper placement of the central venous catheter and absence of complications such as pneumothorax or malposition.

C. Flush the catheter with sterile water: Flushing the catheter with sterile water is not necessary before starting the infusion, especially without confirming proper catheter placement through chest x-ray.

D. Obtain a peripheral blood glucose level: While monitoring blood glucose levels may be

important in certain clinical situations, it is not directly relevant to initiating an IV infusion of Ringer's lactate via a central venous catheter.
