The nurse provides education to a patient diagnosed with iron deficiency anemia. The nurse would teach the patient to eat which foods that are high in iron content?

Choice A reason: This is incorrect. Apples, oranges and strawberries are good sources of vitamin C, which can help with iron absorption, but they are not high in iron content themselves. The patient should eat foods that are rich in both iron and vitamin C.

Choice B reason: This is incorrect. Tuna fish, white bread and green vegetables are not high in iron content either. Tuna fish is a source of protein, but it has less iron than other types of meat or fish. White bread is refined and has less iron than whole grain bread. Green vegetables have some iron, but not enough to meet the daily requirements.

Choice C reason: This is correct. Lean beef, raisins and prunes are high in iron content and can help the patient with iron deficiency anemia. Lean beef is a source of heme iron, which is more easily absorbed by the body than non-heme iron from plant sources. Raisins and prunes are dried fruits that have more iron than fresh fruits.

Choice D reason: This is incorrect. White chicken meat, whole milk and rice are not high in iron content either. White chicken meat has less iron than dark chicken meat or red meat. Whole milk is a source of calcium, which can interfere with iron absorption. Rice is a source of carbohydrates, but it has less iron than other grains or legumes.

Choice A reason:Swaying during a Romberg test indicates a positive result, suggesting proprioceptive deficits or sensory ataxia.

Choice B reason:Unequal pupil response to light relates to cranial nerve function, not balance assessed by the Romberg test.

Choice C reason: This is incorrect. Patient taking two attempts to touch their nose while their eyes are closed is a mild impairment of coordination, which may be due to neurologic changes or other factors such as fatigue or medication. This is not a significant finding that requires immediate attention.

Choice D reason: This is incorrect. Patient complaining of mild dizziness is a common symptom of neurologic changes or vestibular dysfunction. It is not a serious finding that requires immediate attention. The nurse should monitor the patient and provide comfort measures.
