products, such as milk, to help coat and protect his ulcer.
What is the best follow-up action by the nurse?

a- Remind the client that it is also important to switch to
decaffeinated coffee and tea.
b- Suggest that the client also plan to eat frequent small meals
to reduce discomfort
c- Review with the client the need to avoid foods that are
rich in milk and cream.
d- Reinforce this teaching by asking the client to list a dairy food
that he might select.
Rationale: Diets rich in milk and cream stimulate gastric acid
secretion and should be avoided.
2. A male client with hypertension, who received new
antihypertensive prescriptions at his last visit returns to
the clinic two weeks later to evaluate his blood pressure
(BP). His BP is 158/106 and he admits that he has not
been taking the prescribed medication because the drugs
make him “feel bad”. In explaining the need for
hypertension control, the nurse should stress that an
elevated BP places the client at risk for which
pathophysiological condition?

a- Blindness secondary to cataracts
b- Acute kidney injury due to glomerular damage

, c- Stroke secondary to hemorrhage
d- Heart block due to myocardial damage
Rationale: Stroke related to cerebral hemorrhage is major risk

seizure disorder. The client is supine and the UAP is
placing soft pillows along the side rails. What action
should the nurse implement?

a- Ensure that the UAP has placed the pillows effectively to
protect the client.
b- Instruct the UAP to obtain soft blankets to secure to the
side rails instead of pillows.
a- Assume responsibility for placing the pillows while the
UAP completes another task.
b- Ask the UAP to use some of the pillows to prop the client
in a side lying position.
Rationale: The nurse should instruct the UAP to pad the side
rails with soft blankest because the use of pillows could result in
suffocation and would need to be removed at the onset of the
seizure. The nurse can delegate paddling the side rails to the
UAP
