Question 1 of 5

A nurse is teaching a client who is obese and has obstructive sleep apnea how to decrease the number of nightly apneic episodes. Which of the following client statements indicates an understanding of the teaching?

Correct Answer: C

Rationale: The correct answer is C: "If I could lose about 50 pounds, I might stop having so many apneic episodes." Losing weight can significantly reduce the severity of obstructive sleep apnea in obese individuals. Excess weight can contribute to the narrowing of the airway, leading to apneic episodes. By losing weight, the client can decrease the pressure on the airway, potentially reducing the number of apneic episodes.


Choice A is incorrect because sleeping on the back can actually worsen obstructive sleep apnea by causing the tongue to block the airway.
Choice B is incorrect as sleeping pills can further relax the airway muscles, exacerbating apnea.
Choice D is incorrect as a humidifier may help with nasal congestion but won't address the underlying issue of weight-related obstructive sleep apnea.
