Question 1 of 5
A nurse is providing discharge teaching to a client who has a new prescription for warfarin. Which of the following statements by the client indicates an understanding of the teaching?
Correct Answer: C
Rationale: The correct answer is C: "I'll use an electric razor for shaving." This statement indicates an understanding of the teaching because clients taking warfarin are at risk for bleeding due to its anticoagulant effects. Using an electric razor reduces the risk of cuts and bleeding during shaving, which is important to prevent potential complications.
Incorrect choices:
A: Eating more foods with vitamin K can interfere with the effectiveness of warfarin.
B: Taking aspirin can increase the risk of bleeding when combined with warfarin.
D: Alcohol consumption, especially in excess, can interact with warfarin and increase the risk of bleeding.
In summary, the correct answer focuses on safety measures to prevent bleeding, while the incorrect choices involve actions that can potentially increase the risk of bleeding when taking warfarin.
