A parent of a school-age child is receiving discharge teaching following a cardiac catheterization. Which of the following instructions should be included by the nurse?
- A. Allow the child to bathe 6 hours after the procedure.
- B. Keep the child on bed rest for 12 hours.
- C. Maintain a pressure dressing on the site for 8 hours.
- D. Resume regular activities the day after the procedure.
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: The correct instruction that the nurse should include is to keep the child on bed rest for 12 hours following a cardiac catheterization. This is important to prevent bleeding at the insertion site and ensure proper healing. Allowing the child to bathe soon after the procedure, maintaining a pressure dressing for only 8 hours, or resuming regular activities the day after the procedure can increase the risk of complications such as bleeding or infection.
