A patient who had a large portion of the stomach surgically removed will need to receive vitamin B12 for life due to which condition?

Choice A rationale
Monitoring peripheral pulses every 8 hours is not a specific intervention for a client who has acute pancreatitis. While it is important to monitor peripheral pulses as part of overall patient assessment, it does not directly address the needs of a patient with acute pancreatitis.
Choice B rationale
Ambulating the client three times daily is not a specific intervention for a client who has acute pancreatitis. While physical activity is generally beneficial for overall health, it does not directly address the needs of a patient with acute pancreatitis, especially during an acute attack.
Choice C rationale
Maintaining NPO (nothing by mouth) status is a common intervention for a client who has acute pancreatitis. This allows the pancreas to rest and recover, reducing inflammation and pain.
Choice D rationale
Measuring urine output every 4 hours is not a specific intervention for a client who has acute pancreatitis. While it is important to monitor urine output as part of overall patient assessment, it does not directly address the needs of a patient with acute pancreatitis.

Choice A rationale
While headaches can be a side effect of many medications, they are not commonly associated with daily aspirin intake.
Choice B rationale
Muscle pain is not a common side effect of daily aspirin intake. It is more commonly associated with statins, a class of drugs used to lower cholesterol levels.
Choice C rationale
Increased appetite is not a known side effect of daily aspirin intake.
Choice D rationale
Stomach upset is a potential adverse effect of taking daily aspirin. Aspirin can irritate the stomach lining, which can lead to symptoms such as heartburn and nausea.
