Question 1 of 5
A nurse is providing care for a client who is 2 days postoperative following abdominal surgery and is about to progress from a clear liquid diet to full liquids. Which of the following items should the nurse tell the client he may now request to have on his meal tray?
Correct Answer: D
Rationale: The correct answer is D: Skim milk. Skim milk is allowed on a full liquid diet as it is easily digested and provides essential nutrients. It is also a good source of protein and calcium, important for healing post-surgery. Chicken broth (
A) and flavored gelatin (
B) are typically allowed on a clear liquid diet but may not be suitable for a full liquid diet. Cranberry juice (
C) is acidic and may be too harsh on the stomach post-surgery.
Therefore, the nurse should advise the client to choose skim milk for his meal tray to support healing and recovery.
