Which of the following is a correctly stated nursing diagnosis?
 
  a. Strep Throat Related to Bacteria
  b. Skin Breakdown Due to Wet Bed
  c. Myocardial Infarction Related to Ischemia of the Muscle
  d. Altered Nutrition, Less Than Body Requirements, Related to Difficulty Swallowing

Question 2

The physician orders incentive spirometry for a postoperative client with an abdominal incision. The client asks the nurse why this treatment is necessary. Select the best response.
 
  1. The combination of anesthesia and the abdominal incision has decreased your ability to breathe deeply. This device will give you a goal for taking and sustaining deep breaths, which will reverse these effects.
  2. This device will inflate your lungs and make you feel better. Besides, the doctor has ordered it.
  3. This device is only for the purpose of measuring your progress and gives us documentation for the medical chart. This may allow you to go home early.
  4. Using the incentive spirometer will make you cough up your sputum. The more sputum you cough up, the better, but it will hurt. This device can also give you lots of distraction during painful episodes.
