The patient admitted with antisocial disorder will display which symptom(s)?

A. Implement the client's behavioral modification plan:

While addressing the client's behavioral modification plan is important, it may not be the immediate priority when the client has self-inflicted cuts. Ensuring physical safety and assessing the extent of the injury take precedence.

B. Document the size and location of the cuts:

Documentation is important, but it is not the first action to be taken. The immediate concern is to assess the physical condition of the cuts and address any potential risks.

C. Administer a tetanus antitoxin:

Administering a tetanus antitoxin may be necessary depending on the nature and depth of the cuts. However, it is not the first action. First, a thorough inspection of the cuts is needed to determine the appropriate course of action.

D. Inspect the cuts for debris:

This is the most appropriate first action. Inspecting the cuts for debris helps determine the severity of the wounds and whether there is a risk of infection. It also allows the nurse to assess the need for further medical intervention.

A. To emphasize that the client is capable of consuming food without purging: This is the correct purpose of the intervention. By recalling a time when the client was able to consume food without engaging in purging behaviors, the nurse aims to highlight the client's capability to eat without resorting to unhealthy practices.

B. To incorporate specific foods into the meal plan to reflect pleasant memories: While incorporating pleasant memories into the meal plan can be a positive aspect of treatment, the primary purpose of the intervention described is to focus on the client's ability to eat without purging.

C. To assist the client to become more compliant with the treatment plan: While promoting compliance with the treatment plan is important, the specific intervention described is more about exploring the client's past experiences with eating without purging to reinforce the possibility of achieving healthier eating habits.

D. To gain additional information about the progression of the disease process: The intervention is not primarily aimed at gaining information about the progression of the disease process. Instead, it is focused on emphasizing the client's capacity to eat without engaging in purging behaviors.
