The increased availability and use of the Internet has greatly expanded client access to information. A nurse is designing a research study that addresses preoperative teaching and the use of the Internet by clients
Which of the following questions might the nurse attempt to address for this research? 1. How does the increased use of the Internet impact preoperative teaching?
2. When does a client need preoperative teaching?
3. How does a client feel about preoperative teaching?
4. How often does a client need preoperative teaching?
How does the increased use of the Internet impact preoperative teaching?
Rationale: The question of how the increased use of the Internet impacts preoperative teaching addresses the nurse's research regarding preoperative teaching and the use of the Internet. The questions of when a client needs preoperative teaching, how a client feels about preoperative teaching, and how often a client needs preoperative teaching may all be good research topics, but they do not address the nurse's initial desire to cover preoperative teaching and the use of the Internet.
