Question 1 of 5
A client has a history of an inconsistent fecal elimination pattern. What should the nurse instruct this client to improve this health problem?
Correct Answer: A,B
Rationale: The correct answers are A and B. Including more whole grains in the diet can help regulate bowel movements due to their high fiber content. Fiber adds bulk to the stool, promoting regular elimination. Drinking enough water is also essential for maintaining proper hydration and aiding digestion, which can help prevent constipation.
Choices C and D are incorrect as spicy foods and sugar do not directly address the issue of inconsistent fecal elimination, and using enemas should not be done without medical supervision as it can lead to dependency and disrupt natural bowel function.
