Correct Answer: A

Rationale: Female spinal cord trauma clients remain fertile during their reproductive years, and contraception is necessary for those who are sexually active. However, oral contraceptives may increase the risk for thrombophlebitis. Clients with paralysis should avoid dairy products to control the formation of urinary calculi. Meals should be eaten at the same time every day, and they should include fiber and warm solid and liquid foods to promote and maintain the regular evacuation of the bowel.
