The nurse is teaching a client about the treatment of gonorrhea. Which statement by the client indicates

Breast self-examination is an essential part of breast cancer detection and should be performed regularly by all women, regardless of their medical history. While the client may have undergone a left modified radical mastectomy, this does not eliminate the possibility of developing breast cancer in the right breast or other parts of the body. Therefore, it is essential to continue performing breast self-examination regularly to detect any changes that may occur in the right breast.

Option b, "Is lucky that the cancer was caught in time" and option c, "should schedule a follow- up appointment in 6 months" may also be appropriate responses depending on the client's specific situation but option a is the most universally applicable response.

Option d, "I have irregular menses" is unrelated to the topic and does not address the client's

concern or needs.

Choice A: Tremors, rigidity, bradykinesia/akinesia, postural instability are correct because they are the cardinal motor symptoms of Parkinson's disease. They are caused by the degeneration of dopamine-producing neurons in the brain that control movement. Tremors are involuntary shaking of the limbs or other body parts. Rigidity is stiffness or resistance to movement. Bradykinesia/akinesia is slowness or absence of movement. Postural instability is impaired balance or coordination.

Choice B: Dysphagia is correct because it is a common non-motor symptom of Parkinson's disease. It is difficulty swallowing food or liquids. It can result from the impairment of the muscles involved in swallowing or from the reduced production of saliva. Dysphagia can cause malnutrition, dehydration, aspiration, or choking.

Choice C: Psychiatric changes: depression, anxiety, dementia, delirium, hallucinations are correct because they are also common non-motor symptoms of Parkinson's disease. They can result from the changes in the brain chemistry or structure, the side effects of medications, or the emotional impact of living with a chronic condition. Depression is a persistent feeling of sadness, hopelessness, or loss of interest. Anxiety is a feeling of nervousness, worry, or fear.

Dementia is a decline in cognitive functions such as memory, atention, or reasoning. Delirium is a sudden state of confusion, disorientation, or agitation. Hallucinations are false perceptions of things that are not there.

Choice D: All of the above are correct because they are possible signs of Parkinson's disease. However, not all patients experience all of these symptoms or to the same degree. The symptoms may vary depending on the stage and progression of the disease, the individual characteristics of the patient, and the treatment options available.
