Question 1 of 5
A client with a peptic ulcer had a partial gastrectomy and vagotomy (Billroth I).
Correct Answer: D
Rationale:
To prevent dumping syndrome, the client should avoid large meals high in simple sugars and liquids, which can cause rapid gastric emptying. The client should recline after meals, drink fluids between meals, and reduce carbohydrate intake to stabilize digestion.
Question 2 of 5
A client asks the home care nurse to look at the bruises on her arms and legs. The woman also tells the nurse that her gums bleed when she uses dental floss or brushes her teeth. The client is taking all of the following medications. Which is most likely related to the client's symptoms?
Correct Answer: D
