A client had a miscarriage and underwent a cervical dilatation and curettage procedure. Before discharge, the nurse midwife instructs the client about certain activities that have to be limited or avoided in the next few weeks. The nurse midwife determines that the health teaching has been successful if the client says:
  1. “I can engage in vaginal intercourse after a week.”
  2. “I will avoid tub baths for a week.”
  3. “I should use tampons instead of sanitary pads.”
  4. “I need to be on bed rest for a week”
Explanation
Answer: B - The teaching has been successful if the client says that she will avoid tub baths for a week. The client may engage in vaginal intercourse after two weeks. Tampons have to be avoided for a week. The client may gradually increase her activities; bed rest is not necessary.
