A nurse is reinforcing teaching with a client who is taking oxybutynin. The nurse should tell the client that the medication will have which of the following effects?

Choice c: Confusion is a finding that the nurse should anticipate in an older adult client who has cystitis, which is inflammation of the bladder caused by a bacterial infection. Confusion can be a sign of sepsis or delirium, which are common complications of urinary tract infections in older adults.

Choice a is not correct because hypothermia is not a finding that the nurse should anticipate in an older adult client who has cystitis. Hypothermia can occur in older adults due to impaired thermoregulation, but it is not related to cystitis.

Choice b is not correct because referred pain in the right shoulder is not a finding that the nurse should anticipate in an older adult client who has cystitis. Referred pain in the right shoulder can indicate gallbladder disease, but it is not related to cystitis.

Choice d is not correct because orange-colored urine is not a finding that the nurse should anticipate in an older adult client who has cystitis. Orange-colored urine can be caused by certain medications, foods, or dehydration, but it is not related to cystitis.

The correct answer is C. Consume a diet high in antioxidants.

Choice A: Complete breast self-examinations one week prior to menstruation.

Performing breast self-examinations one week prior to menstruation is not recommended. The best time to perform a breast self-exam is about 3 to 5 days after your period starts, when your breasts are least likely to be tender or swollen. This timing helps in detecting any unusual changes more accurately.

Choice B: Expect clear discharge from the nipples.

While some nipple discharge can be normal, it is not something that should be expected as a routine part of breast health. Clear, yellow, or white discharge can occur due to hormonal changes, but any spontaneous discharge, especially if it is bloody or from one breast, should be evaluated by a healthcare provider.

Choice C: Consume a diet high in antioxidants.

Consuming a diet high in antioxidants is beneficial for overall health and may help reduce the risk of various diseases, including cancer. Antioxidants help neutralize free radicals, which can damage cells and contribute to cancer development. Foods rich in antioxidants include fruits, vegetables, nuts, and whole grains.

Choice D: Include meats grilled over high heat in the diet.

Including meats grilled over high heat in the diet is not advisable for someone concerned about cancer risk. Grilling meats at high temperatures can produce carcinogens such as heterocyclic amines (HCAs) and polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs), which have been linked to an increased risk of cancer. Therefore, it is better to avoid or limit the consumption of grilled meats.
