A nurse is teaching a newly diagnosed client about B-thalassemia major (Cooley anemia).
Question 1 of 5
What response by the client indicates correct understanding of Chelation therapy?
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: The correct response is B: Eliminates excess iron. Chelation therapy involves using specific agents to bind and remove heavy metals, such as iron, from the body. This is particularly important in conditions of iron overload, like hemochromatosis. Managing nausea and vomiting (
A) is not a direct indication of understanding chelation therapy. Decreasing the risk of hypoxia (
C) is not a primary goal of chelation therapy. While chelation therapy can help manage certain symptoms and potentially slow disease progression, its main purpose is to remove excess metals rather than directly treating the underlying disease (
D).
