Answer:

A nurse is performing discharge teaching with a client who has an implantable cardioverter defibrillator (ICD) placed. Which client statement indicates effective teaching?

A. I'll keep a log of each time my ICD discharges.

B. I can't wait to get back to my football league.

C. I have an appointment for magnetic resonance imaging of my knee scheduled for next week.

D. I need to stay at least 10′ away from the microwave.

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

Cheers!

Answer:I'll keep a log of each time my ICD discharges

Explanation: ICD is a device that detects a life-threatening, abnormal heartbeat. If it occurs, the device sends an electrical shock to the heart to change the rhythm back to normal. The client saying he would keep a log of each time his/her ICD shows knowledge of subject matter, which the nurse has explained. Effective teaching is when there is effective comunication between two or more parties, ie teaching with clarity to the receiver and sufficient feedback from the receiver to the sender.

Answer:

The correct answer is herd immunity

Explanation:

Herd immunity is a type of immunity provided by the major population which is vaccinated or immune against an infectious to some individual of their community which is not immune to that infection.

Herd immunity is generated only when most of the population is immune to that particular disease. For example, in measles, 90-95% of a population should be vaccinated against measles to provide herd immunity to the un-immune individuals. So the correct answer is herd immunity.

Not too sure. If this is just for an opinion, then I'd personally get new group members because your job is to help people instead of degrade them for things they don't have control over. 

But if it's for an assignment, then I'd still say the same, but it's asking you what you'd do in the situation where you have a counseling program and your group members have been saying bad things about AIDS and the gay community but you're not sure about whether the group will work out or not.
