A nurse is assessing an adult male client who has a BMI of 20. The nurse should identify that the client's BMI falls within which of the following categories?

A. This is not an appropriate action for a client experiencing acute mania. A flexible activity schedule may exacerbate symptoms by allowing too much freedom, leading to overstimulation and a lack of focus. Structured activities with clear boundaries are more effective for managing manic behaviors.

B. Providing high-calorie nutritional supplements is essential for clients in acute mania because they often exhibit hyperactivity and may neglect to eat or drink adequately. These supplements help maintain nutritional balance and prevent weight loss or dehydration during this period of heightened energy and poor self-care.

C. Allowing the client to eat meals alone in her room is not appropriate. Clients with acute mania benefit from supervised, structured environments to ensure they are eating and engaging in necessary self-care. Isolation may also increase feelings of disorganization or exacerbate symptoms.

D. Allowing the client to choose her clothes independently is not recommended during acute mania, as poor judgment and impulsivity may lead to inappropriate or excessive clothing choices. Providing simple, preselected clothing options helps reduce decision-making stress and ensures appropriate attire.

D. Apply sterile gloves and place cleansing balls in antiseptic solution.

C. Lubricate the catheter and place fenestrated drape over perineum.

E. Cleanse the meatus with the dominant hand in a downward motion.

A. Insert the catheter until a flow of urine begins.

B. Attach prefilled syringe to indwelling catheter inflation hub.
