Question 1 of 5

The nurse is caring for the client who had a vertical banded gastroplasty. The nurse teaches that nausea can occur after this surgery from which situation?

Correct Answer: A

Rationale: A. A small pouch (15—20 mL capacity) is constructed in the upper part of the stomach during vertical banded gastroplasty. Overfilling of this pouch stimulates afferent nerve fibers, which relay information to the chemoreceptor trigger zone in the brain, causing nausea. B. The function of the lower half of the stomach is not affected with a vertical banded gastroplasty. C. The duodenum is not incised during a vertical banded gastroplasty. D. Dumping syndrome is more likely to occur from a meal high in simple carbohydrates, not protein.
