The nurse is caring for a client that takes aspirin three times per day. Which of the following is a potential adverse effect of taking daily aspirin?

Choice A rationale
Dumping syndrome is a condition that can occur after surgery to remove all or part of your stomach or after an operation to bypass your stomach to help you lose weight. It’s also known as rapid gastric emptying. Dumping syndrome occurs when food, especially sugar, moves from your stomach into your small intestine too quickly. One of the recommended dietary changes for managing dumping syndrome is eating smaller, more frequent meals. This helps to avoid

the rapid emptying of food into the small intestine, thereby preventing the symptoms of dumping syndrome.
Choice B rationale
Sitting up for 5 hours after each meal is not typically recommended for managing dumping syndrome. While it’s advised to take a short rest after eating, the duration doesn’t need to be as long as 5 hours.
Choice C rationale
The symptoms of dumping syndrome can begin soon after eating, especially if the meal is high in sugar. However, they typically start within 10 to 30 minutes, not 5 hours.
Choice D rationale
Drinking lots of fluids with meals is not recommended for those with dumping syndrome. In fact, it’s often advised to avoid drinking fluids until about 30 minutes after a meal to prevent triggering symptoms.

Choice A rationale

Drinking a glass of water with each meal is not typically recommended for patients with dumping syndrome. In fact, it’s often suggested to avoid drinking liquids until at least 30 minutes after a meal.
Choice B rationale
Increasing protein in the diet is indeed a good recommendation for a patient with dumping syndrome. High-protein foods can help to slow the rate of gastric emptying and reduce symptoms.
Choice C rationale
Eating three moderate-sized meals a day might not be the best advice for a patient with dumping syndrome. Instead, it’s often recommended to eat smaller, more frequent meals throughout the day.
Choice D rationale
Eating a bedtime snack that contains a milk product is not typically recommended for patients with dumping syndrome. Dairy products can sometimes exacerbate symptoms.
