Answer to Question 1

D
Feedback:
Nursing considerations center around client teaching and postoperative care. The nurse should instruct the client not to lie down for at least 2 hours after meals and not to wear tight belts or waistbands. The client with GERD should stop smoking, elevate the head of the bed, avoid gastric irritants, eat small meals, and maintain proper weight.
