After teaching a client who is scheduled for magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), the nurse assesses the client's understanding. Which client statement indicates a correct understanding of the teaching?
 
  a. I must increase my fluids because of the dye used for the MRI.
  b. My urine will be radioactive so I should not share a bathroom.
  c. I can return to my usual activities immediately after the MRI.
  d. My gag reflex will be tested before I can eat or drink anything.

Question 2

  a. Provide a call button that requires only minimal pressure to activate.

  c. Ensure that the path to the bathroom is free from equipment.
  d. Encourage the client to season food to stimulate nutritional intake.

Answer to Question 1

ANS: C
No postprocedure restrictions are imposed after MRI. The client can return to normal activities after the test is complete. There are no dyes or radioactive materials used for the MRI; therefore, increased fluids are not needed and the client's urine would not be radioactive. The procedure does not impact the client's gag reflex.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: C
Dementia and confusion are not common phenomena in older adults. However, physical impairment related to illness can be expected. Providing opportunities for hazard-free ambulation will maintain strength and mobility (and ensure safety). Providing a call button, providing the date, and seasoning food do not address the client's impaired sensory perception.
