A nurse is providing teaching to a client about the adverse effects of sertraline.
Which of the following adverse effects should the nurse include?

Choice A rationale:

The nurse should instruct the assistive personnel (AP) to report the client who has a prescription for compression stockings but did not receive them. This situation involves a missed intervention that is crucial for the client's health and safety. Reporting this to the nurse allows timely intervention and ensures that the client receives the necessary care.

Choice B rationale:

Consuming all the food from the meal tray is not a cause for concern and does not require immediate reporting to the nurse. It is a normal behavior and does not indicate any potential issues with the client's health or safety.

Choice C rationale:

The client's request to sit in the bedside chair while watching TV is a common and appropriate request. It does not pose any risk to the client's health or safety and does not require immediate reporting to the nurse.

Choice D rationale:

A client requesting assistance to use the bedside commode indicates a need for assistance with a basic activity of daily living. The AP should assist the client with this request as appropriate and does not need to report it to the nurse unless complications or concerns arise during the process.

Choice A rationale:

Recent myocardial infarction is not a contraindication for warfarin administration. Warfarin is often prescribed for patients with a history of myocardial infarction to prevent clot formation and reduce the risk of stroke.

Choice B rationale:

Recent eye surgery is a contraindication for the administration of warfarin. Warfarin can increase the risk of bleeding, which is particularly concerning after eye surgery due to the delicate nature of ocular tissues. Using anticoagulants in this scenario can lead to severe complications, including vision loss.

Choice C rationale:

Thrombophlebitis, inflammation of a vein with clot formation, is not a contraindication for warfarin administration. In fact, anticoagulants like warfarin are commonly prescribed to prevent the extension of clots and reduce the risk of complications associated with thrombophlebitis.

Choice D rationale:

Breast cancer is not a direct contraindication for warfarin administration. However, the decision to use anticoagulants in patients with a history of breast cancer should be made carefully, considering individual factors such as the stage of cancer, ongoing treatment, and overall risk of thromboembolic events.
