Question 1 of 5
A postpartum client recovering from disseminated intravascular coagulopathy is to be discharged on low dosages of an anticoagulant medication. What action should the nurse encourage the client to avoid?
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: Aspirin is an antiplatelet medication and can interact with the anticoagulant medication and increase the clotting time beyond therapeutic ranges, so avoiding aspirin is a priority. The client does not need to avoid brushing her teeth, but she should be instructed to use a soft toothbrush. Walking and climbing stairs are acceptable activities. Not all activities need to be avoided.
