A patient has just undergone a percutaneous liver biopsy. Which of the following are included in the post-procedure assessment? (select all that apply)

A. "Now you can eat whatever you want": This is incorrect and dangerous advice. Lifestyle changes, including diet, are crucial for preventing the progression of coronary artery disease even after a CABG.

B. "A CABG is not a cure - It may improve your quality of life": This response educates the patient that while CABG can relieve symptoms and improve quality of life, it does not cure the underlying disease. Continued management and lifestyle changes are essential.

C. "I am happy for you": While this might express empathy, it does not provide the necessary education or correction of the patient’s misconception about CABG.

D. "A CABG is not a cure - but now you can stop taking your medications": This is incorrect. Most patients will need to continue taking medications such as antiplatelets, statins, and antihypertensives to manage their condition post-CABG.

A. Dark colored urine: Dark urine can be a sign of bilirubin buildup in the body due to liver dysfunction, commonly seen in cirrhosis.

B. Dark colored stool: This is not typically associated with cirrhosis. Dark stools can indicate gastrointestinal bleeding, but in cirrhosis, stools are more likely to be pale or clay-colored due to a lack of bile.

C. Jaundice: Jaundice occurs due to the liver's inability to process bilirubin, leading to yellowing of the skin and eyes.

D. Pruritus: Pruritus, or itching, is common in cirrhosis due to bile salt deposition in the skin.

E. Ascites: Ascites, the accumulation of fluid in the abdomen, is a common complication of cirrhosis due to portal hypertension and low albumin levels.
