Question 1 of 5
The nurse is preparing discharge teaching for a client who has had a paracentesis. What information should be included in the education session?
Correct Answer: D
Rationale: Checking blood glucose daily is not directly relevant unless the client also has diabetes. While this can indicate other health issues, it is not specific post-paracentesis advice. A low carbohydrate diet is not typically related to post-paracentesis care unless specified by the healthcare provider for other underlying conditions. Change positions slowly is important to prevent postural hypotension and falls after fluid removal during paracentesis. It prevents dizziness or lightheadedness due to fluid shifts or blood pressure changes after the procedure.
