The nurse makes the following statement during a change of shift report to another nurse. 'I assessed Mr. Diaz, my 61-year-old patient from Chile. He fell at home and hurt his back 3 days ago. He has some difficulty turning in bed, and he says that he has pain that radiates down his leg. He rates his pain at a 6, but I don’t think it’s that severe. You know that back patients often have chronic pain. He seems fine when talking with his family. Have you cared for him before?' What does the nurse’s conclusion suggest?

The answer is C

Explanation:

The nurse is applying a stereotype about patients with back pain. An accurate clinical inference would not include the nurse's opinion. The cues suggest that the patient has acute pain, which the nurse is rejecting. Validation would involve having another nurse also assess the patient for pain.

b.working on a weight lost for a patient

explanation:

a mother eats twice as much to support her growing fetus

limiting sugar intake in a mother with gestational diabetes, switching from diving to swimming.   depending on whether the patient is normal weight, over weight or gain will differ depending on that.
