The nurse provides a list of instructions to a client being discharged to home with a peripherally inserted central catheter (PICC). The nurse determines that the client needs further instructions if the client made which statement?

The given question is not complete. The complete question is:

The nurse provides a list of instructions to a client being discharged to home with a peripherally inserted central catheter (PICC). The nurse determines that the client needs further instructions if the client made which statement?

1. "I need to wear a MedicAlert tag or bracelet."

2. "I need to restrict my activity while this catheter is in place."

3. "I need to keep the insertion site protected when in the shower or bath."

4. "I need to check the markings on the catheter each time the dressing is changed."

The correct answer is statement 2.

Explanation:

A flexible and thin tube, which is administered into the upper arms' vein and guided towards the superior vena cava is known as PICC or peripherally inserted central catheter. It has an application at the time of blood transfusions, providing intravenous fluids, at the time of chemotherapy, and for other activities.  

In the given case, it is the job of the nurse to teach the client that only minor activity limitations is needed when PICC is administered. However, one should ensure the protection of the site at the time of taking bath, should use a MedicAlert device and should look for the markings on the catheter at the time of changing dressing in order to evaluate dislodgement of the catheter.  

what have scientists found to be the most efficient and effective way to insert new sequences into an individual? a-scientists have created genetically altered foods that release dna during digestion. b-scientists use viruses to insert specific gene sequences. c-scientists irradiate genes so that they can be absorbed through the skin.

metamorphism is the change of minerals or geologic texture (distinct arrangement of minerals) in pre-existing rocks (protoliths), without the protolith melting into liquid magma (a solid-state change). the change occurs primarily due to heat, pressure, and the introduction of chemically active fluids. i hoped i !
