The nurse instructed a client on ways to reduce premenstrual difficulty. Which of the following would indicate the instruction was beneficial?
1. The client states the need to increase dietary sugar intake to promote energy.
2. The client states the need to increase intake of simple carbohydrates.
3. The client states reducing caffeine will help.
4. The client states guided imagery does not help with the symptoms.
3. The client states reducing caffeine will help.
Rationale:
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 since guided imagery can be used to reduce stress and promote relaxation, and simple carbohydrates and sugars should be reduced.
