Question 1 of 5
A nurse is providing discharge teaching to a client who is postoperative following the surgical repair of a detached retina. Which of the following statements by the client indicates an understanding of the teaching?
Correct Answer: D
Rationale: The correct answer is D: "I can resume activities such as sewing." This indicates an understanding of the teaching because it shows the client recognizes the need to avoid strenuous activities that may increase intraocular pressure, thus risking damage to the repaired retina. Sewing is a low-impact activity that does not involve heavy lifting or sudden movements, making it safe for the client postoperatively.
Choice A is incorrect because jogging is a high-impact activity that should be avoided for several weeks post-surgery.
Choice B is incorrect because bending at the waist can increase intraocular pressure, which is not recommended post-detached retina repair.
Choice C is incorrect as lifting objects, even if less than 10 pounds, can also increase intraocular pressure.
