Answer:
"I will put the pillow on the incision then cough."
Explanation:
Options have not been provided for the question and are not available anywhere. However, putting a pillow on the incision while coughing is one of the correct instructions that might have been provided by the nurse with respect to splinting the incision site.
After abdominal surgery the patient is usually immobile for a long time. Mucus and other secretions can start accumulating in their airway which can hinder the breathing process. To avoid this problem, they are instructed to cough at certain intervals of time to clear air passage and lungs. However, if there is an incision on the abdomen this activity can cause pain and discomfort. To avoid this situation, a pillow is placed on the incision and the patient is told to firmly hold that pillow. This action is called splinting the incision and it supports the incision and the abdominal muscles surrounding it so that the patient does not feel pain or discomfort while coughing.
Answer:
hot dog with visible grill marks
Explanation:
According to an article in the Los Angeles Times, citing University of California research published in the journal Cancer Causes and Control, people who eat 12 or more hot dogs a month are 9 times more likely to develop cancer. This is because the hot dog sausage is a processed meat that can influence the onset of cancer in the body.
To understand this, it first needs to be clarified that processed meat is a food that goes through a long preservation process to extend its shelf life and enhance flavor. Roughly speaking, this is equivalent to stating that it is a fresh product of animal origin that is processed, changing color and texture, for example. It is also important to say that there is no conservation method (brine, smoking etc.) that offers less risk. In addition, these meats may receive additives in addition to salt, such as color-fixing compounds (nitrate), which are unhealthy and stimulate cancer.
