A is the most correct answer.
Explanation:
The question here is about Patient Education.
Educating patients helps them make informed decision about their own welfare.
Patient education can include information about their health conditions and treatments or how to navigate the healthcare system. Ultimately, these educational efforts may help empower patients and inspire them to take ownership of their care.
Implantable Cardioverter Defibrillator (ICD) is a device that is put within the body and is designed to recognize certain types of abnormal heart rhythms (arrhythmia) and correct them.
According to the question, if the patient stated that he would keep a log of all ICD discharges, it indicates that he or she has been effectively taught.
- The log helps the client and physician identify activities that may cause the arrhythmia that result in the ICD discharge.
- Medically, he or she is required to record the events right before the discharge.
- Patients with ICDs ought to stay away from contact sports such as football. It is also advisable medically for them to avoid magnetic fields, which could permanently damage the ICD.
- Finally, do note that household appliances don't interfere with the ICD
