Question 1 of 5

A client who is scheduled for an abdominal peritoneoscopy states to the home care nurse, 'The surgeon told me to restrict food and liquids for at least 8 hours before this procedure and to use a Fleet enema 4 hours before entering the hospital. Do people ever get into trouble after this procedure?' Which is the most appropriate therapeutic response the nurse should make to the client?

Correct Answer: B

Rationale: Abdominal peritoneoscopy is performed to directly visualize the liver, gallbladder, spleen, and stomach after the insufflation of nitrous oxide. During the procedure, a rigid laparoscope is inserted through a small incision in the abdomen. A microscope in the endoscope allows for the visualization of the organs and provides a way to collect a specimen for biopsy or remove small tumors. The appropriate response is the one that facilitates the expression of the client's feelings. Option 1 may increase the client's anxiety. In option 3, the nurse states that no problems are associated with this procedure; this is closed-ended and is incorrect. Although option 4 contains accurate information, the word immediately can increase the client's anxiety.
