Question 1 of 5

A nurse is obtaining a preoperative medical and surgical history from a patient scheduled for a cataract extraction procedure. Which of the following patient statements require further investigation by the nurse? Which statement requires further investigation pre-cataract surgery?

Correct Answer: D

Rationale: The correct answer is D because having a cough and runny nose a couple of days ago could indicate a potential respiratory infection, which may increase the risk of complications during surgery. The nurse should further investigate the severity and duration of the symptoms, as well as any current treatment or resolution.

A: Stopping aspirin last week is appropriate to reduce bleeding risk during surgery.
B: Taking blood pressure meds with water is standard practice and not concerning.
C: Not wearing contact lenses is normal before eye surgery to prevent complications.

In summary, choice D requires further investigation due to the possible impact on the patient's respiratory health, while the other choices are not directly related to the surgery or pose significant risks.
