Question 1 of 5
A client with alcohol use disorder is at risk for Wernicke’s encephalopathy. Which intervention is most appropriate?
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: The correct answer is A: Administer high-dose thiamine. Thiamine deficiency is common in alcohol use disorder and can lead to Wernicke's encephalopathy. Administering high-dose thiamine can help prevent or treat this condition. Thiamine plays a crucial role in brain function, and alcohol impairs its absorption. Restricting carbohydrate intake (
B) is not appropriate as thiamine is essential for carbohydrate metabolism. Encouraging bed rest (
C) may not address the thiamine deficiency. Monitoring blood pressure (
D) is important but not the most appropriate intervention for Wernicke's encephalopathy.
