Question 1 of 5

A nurse is reviewing discharge instructions with a client following a right cataract extraction. Which of the following instructions should the nurse include?

Correct Answer: A

Rationale: The correct answer is A: Avoid lifting anything heavier than 4.5 kg (10 lb) for 1 week. This instruction is crucial after a cataract extraction to prevent any strain on the eye during the initial healing period. Lifting heavy objects can increase intraocular pressure and potentially lead to complications.
Choice B (Take a warm shower every day) is not directly related to post-operative care for a cataract extraction.
Choice C (Resume regular activities immediately) is incorrect as the client should avoid strenuous activities, including heavy lifting, to allow proper healing.
Choice D (Avoid all physical activity for the next month) is overly restrictive and unnecessary. It's important to provide specific, clear, and relevant instructions to support the client's recovery.
