Bladder irritants include caffeine, aspartame artificial sweetener, dairy products, tomato products, citrus fruits, spicy foods, alcoholic beverages, and sugar.

Answer to Question 2

C
Feedback:
The nurse should check the client's wrist ID band and ask the client his or her name and birth date. The wristband is an objective form of ID. The client is not likely to give the wrong birth date. The nurse should not ask the client if he is Mr. Gray. If the nurse simply asks the client his or her name, the reply may be yes, because the client did not hear, did not speak English, or simply wanted to be misleading. Another nurse and client family members may confirm identity as a last resort, such as if a client is in a coma, but checking the ID and asking for name and birth date are the recommended guidelines for alert clients.
