Question 1 of 5
A client taking anticholinergic drugs should be taught to minimize the risks of heat exhaustion and heat stroke. What would be one way to meet this goal?
Correct Answer: C
Rationale: The correct answer is C: Avoid extremes of temperature on exertion. Anticholinergic drugs impair the body's ability to regulate temperature, increasing the risk of heat-related issues. By avoiding extremes of temperature on exertion, the client can prevent overheating and reduce the risk of heat exhaustion and heat stroke. Exercising indoors can help control temperature but doesn't address the issue of exertion in extreme temperatures. Wearing dark, warm clothing would exacerbate heat retention. Taking frequent showers may help with cooling but doesn't directly address exertion in extreme temperatures.
