An adolescent with spina bifida, paralyzed from the waist down.
Question 1 of 5
A nurse is caring for an adolescent who has spina bifida and is paralyzed from the waist down. Which of the following statements by the client should indicate to the nurse a need for further teaching?
Correct Answer: D
Rationale: The correct answer is D. The client stating "I only need to catheterize myself twice every day" indicates a need for further teaching because individuals with spina bifida and paralysis typically need to catheterize more frequently to prevent urinary retention and complications. Catheterization frequency should be individualized based on the client's needs and healthcare provider's recommendations. Options A, B, and C are appropriate self-care practices for someone with spina bifida, promoting physical activity, hydration, and bowel management. Option D is incorrect as it suggests inadequate catheterization frequency, which can lead to urinary issues.
