A nurse is teaching a client about skin cancer prevention. Which of the following statements by the client indicates an understanding of the teaching?

A. Delayed. Delayed grief is characterized by the postponement or suppression of grieving responses, often surfacing long after the loss has occurred. It does not apply here, as the family member is expressing active emotional struggle before the loss.
B. Anticipatory. Anticipatory grief occurs before an actual loss, such as when a loved one is dying from a terminal illness. The family member is beginning to grieve the impending death and the emotional impact of the future loss, which fits this type of grief.
C. Disenfranchised. Disenfranchised grief refers to grief that is not openly acknowledged or socially supported, such as the death of an ex-partner or a pet. In this scenario, the grief is acknowledged and supported, so this does not apply.
D. Exaggerated. Exaggerated grief involves intense symptoms that interfere with daily functioning, such as severe depression, phobias, or suicidal thoughts. The family member is expressing difficulty, but not at a level that indicates dysfunction.

A. Place the client in a side-lying position for the procedure. Paracentesis is typically performed with the client in a high-Fowler’s or upright position, allowing fluid to collect in the lower abdomen for easier drainage.
B. Administer a low-volume hypertonic enema the night before the procedure. An enema is not required for a paracentesis, as the procedure involves the peritoneal cavity, not the bowel.
C. Weigh the client before and after the procedure. Weighing the client helps assess the amount of fluid removed and monitor for fluid shifts. It is a key part of pre- and post-procedural care to evaluate the effectiveness of the intervention.
D. Ensure the client has a full bladder just prior to the procedure. A full bladder increases the risk of injury during needle insertion. The bladder should be emptied before the procedure to prevent accidental puncture.
