Question 1 of 5

The nurse recognizes that teaching a 44-year-old woman following a laparoscopic cholecystectomy has been effective when the patient states which of the following?

Correct Answer: B

Rationale: The correct answer is, 'I can remove the bandages on my incisions tomorrow and take a shower.' After a laparoscopic cholecystectomy, patients have Band-Aids over the incisions and can typically remove the bandages the next day. Patients are usually discharged the same or next day and have minimal restrictions on their daily activities. Yellow-green drainage from the incision would be abnormal, requiring the patient to contact their healthcare provider. While a low-fat diet may be recommended initially after surgery, it is not a lifelong requirement, as the body can adjust to the absence of the gallbladder over time.
Choice A is incorrect as abnormal drainage should be reported.
Choice C is incorrect as most patients can resume normal activities within a few days to a week.
Choice D is incorrect as maintaining a low-fat diet is not a lifelong necessity after a cholecystectomy.
