A nurse is providing teaching for a client who has binge-eating disorder and is morbidly obese. The client has been prescribed orlistat. Which of the following statements indicates to the nurse that the client understands the teaching?

A. Cleanse the skin prior to the procedure: Cleansing the skin before applying the transdermal analgesic cream is essential to remove any dirt, oils, or contaminants that could interfere with its absorption. This step helps ensure optimal drug delivery and effectiveness.
B. Apply the medication an hour before the procedure begins: Applying the transdermal analgesic cream an hour before the procedure allows sufficient time for the medication to be absorbed through the skin and reach its therapeutic effect. This timing ensures that the analgesic properties are in place when the IV insertion procedure starts.
C. Use a visual pain rating scale to evaluate the effectiveness of the treatment: Using a visual pain rating scale can help assess the child's pain level before and after applying the transdermal analgesic cream. This evaluation provides valuable feedback on the cream's effectiveness in providing pain relief.
D. Apply to intact skin: Transdermal medications are designed to be absorbed through intact skin. Applying the cream to intact skin ensures proper absorption and effectiveness of the analgesic medication.
E. Spread the cream over the lateral surface of both forearms. This option might not be necessary or appropriate for the intended purpose. The choice of application site for transdermal analgesic cream depends on the specific medication and the area of pain. While the lateral surface of the forearms can be a suitable site, it may not always be necessary or feasible to apply the cream to both forearms, especially if the intended IV insertion site is on one arm.

A. Battery involves the unauthorized or harmful touching of another person without their consent. Restraint without proper justification could potentially lead to a charge of battery, but the situation described does not involve actual physical contact.
B. Assault involves the threat of bodily harm to another person, creating fear or apprehension that the harm will be carried out. While the threat of restraint might cause fear, actual restraint is necessary to constitute assault.
C. Invasion of privacy refers to the unauthorized intrusion into an individual's private affairs or the public disclosure of private information. It does not apply to the act of physically restraining a client.
D. False imprisonment occurs when an individual is unlawfully restrained or confined against their will. In this scenario, the provider's directive to restrain the client against her wishes constitutes false imprisonment if the restraint is not justified by the client's medical condition or pose an immediate danger to herself or others.
