Free NCLEX RN Questions on Health Promotion and Maintenance Nursing Practice Question
The nurse provides discharge teaching to a client after a vasectomy. Which statement by the client indicates the need for further teaching?
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: After vasectomy, the client must continue to practice a method of birth control until the follow-up semen analysis shows azoospermia. Live sperm may be present in the vas deferens after this procedure. Using scrotal support, resuming sexual activity, and promoting pain relief with ice and taking an analgesic such as acetaminophen are appropriate client statements.
