A nurse is teaching a client about the causes of biliary cirrhosis. Which of the following should the nurse include in the teaching?

Choice A reason: Bradycardia, or a slower than normal heart rate, is not typically an indication of infection. It can be related to other health issues or medication effects.

Choice B reason: An increase in platelets, or thrombocytosis, can occur in response to various conditions, but it is not a specific indicator of infection in diabetic foot pain.

Choice C reason: An increase in RBCs, or erythrocytosis, is generally not associated with infection. It could indicate other conditions such as polycythemia vera.

Choice D reason: Localized edema, or swelling, can be a sign of infection, especially if accompanied by other symptoms such as redness, warmth, and pain.

Choice E reason: An increase in neutrophils, a type of white blood cell, often indicates the body's response to an infection. Neutrophils are part of the immune system's first line of defense against pathogens.

Choice A reason: An oral temperature of 38.2°C (100.76°F) is slightly elevated but can be expected postoperatively as the body responds to surgical stress. It is not necessarily an indication of a complication unless it rises significantly or is accompanied by other symptoms.

Choice B reason: The output of burgundy colored urine can indicate bleeding in the urinary tract, which is a potential complication after TURP. Normal urine color ranges from pale yellow to deep amber, depending on hydration levels. Burgundy colored urine postTURP could suggest the presence of blood, warranting further assessment and intervention.

Choice C reason: Feeling an urge to void despite having an indwelling urinary catheter can be uncomfortable but is not uncommon after TURP due to irritation of the bladder. It is not typically a sign of a complication unless accompanied by other symptoms such as pain or difficulty urinating once the catheter is removed.

Choice D reason: A pulse rate of 58/min is within the normal resting range for adults, which is typically 60100 beats per minute. A lower than average pulse rate postoperatively might be normal for the patient, especially if they are on medications like betablockers, or it could be a sign of a good fitness level.
