Answer to Question 1

Answer: D

The client stating that a reduction in caffeine intake will help is evidence that instruction was beneficial. The other client statements would indicate the need for additional instruction because guided imagery can be used to reduce stress and promote relaxation, and simple carbohydrates and sugars should be reduced.

Answer to Question 2

Answer: C

Interventions to aid with ineffective coping for a client with severe premenstrual syndrome include encouraging exercise and relaxation techniques and avoiding alcohol intake. The client should not be encouraged to have 4 ounces of wine each day. The client should be instructed to use contraception if engaging in sexual intercourse during menstruation because ovulation and pregnancy can occur. Frequent rest periods would be beneficial for a client with dysfunctional uterine bleeding.
