The nurse recognizes that which statement regarding sleep is true?

A. This approach involves providing medication education to the client as each medication is administered. While this ensures that the client receives information about each medication in a timely manner, it may not allow for comprehensive education or adequate time for the client to ask questions or clarify information. Additionally, the client may feel overwhelmed by receiving information about multiple medications at once.
B. Incorporating medication education into another activity, such as assisting the client with his bath, can be an efficient use of time. However, it may not provide an optimal environment for focused learning and discussion. The client may be distracted or uncomfortable during the bath, limiting their ability to absorb and retain information effectively.
C. This approach involves providing medication education to the client after discharge via a follow-up phone call. While this allows for more time and flexibility in providing education, it may not address the client's immediate needs or questions prior to discharge. Additionally, the client may have already started taking the medications by the time of the follow-up call, potentially leading to missed opportunities for clarification or adjustment of the medication regimen.
D. Providing written instructions for the client to read at home is an efficient way to ensure that the client has access to information about their medications. This allows the client to review the information at their own pace and refer back to it as needed. However, written instructions alone may not be sufficient for addressing all aspects of medication education, such as potential side effects, drug interactions, or administration techniques.

A. Changing the client's arm position, such as raising or lowering it, could potentially improve flow by altering the gravitational pull on the IV solution. For example, raising the arm could increase flow due to increased pressure, while lowering it could decrease flow. However, this approach may not always be effective and should be done cautiously to avoid discomfort or compromising the integrity of the IV site.
B. Using an infusion pump can help regulate the flow rate of the IV solution more accurately compared to gravity alone. However, if the IV is running slowly due to factors unrelated to the infusion rate setting, such as a partial blockage or resistance in the IV line, using an infusion pump may not necessarily improve the flow rate.
C. Lowering the height of the IV pole can increase the gravitational force acting on the IV solution, potentially improving flow. This adjustment can help overcome minor obstructions in the IV line and facilitate better flow. However, it should be done cautiously to avoid excessive pressure on the IV site or causing discomfort to the client.
D. Opening the clamp fully for an extended period is not a recommended approach. It could lead to rapid infusion or an excessive flow rate, increasing the risk of complications such as fluid overload or vein irritation. Additionally, this action does not address the underlying reason for the slow flow rate and may not effectively resolve the issue.
