[All OMSB_OEN Questions]

A nurse is assigned to provide health teaching about the prevention strategies for a patient who complains of frequent severe low back pain.

Which of the following exercises would the nurse include in the teaching?

Show Suggested Answer Hide Answer
Suggested Answer: D

Swimming is an excellent exercise for individuals with low back pain as it is low-impact and helps strengthen the muscles supporting the back without putting undue stress on it. Sit-ups and leg lifts can strain the back and worsen pain, while running is a high-impact activity that can also exacerbate back pain. Swimming promotes flexibility, strength, and cardiovascular health while minimizing the risk of further injury to the back.

I’m a bit confused about sit-ups; I thought they could strain the back, so maybe they’re not the right choice here.

I feel pretty confident about this one. Based on my nursing knowledge, I know that sit-ups and running can actually aggravate low back pain, so I'll rule those out. Swimming and leg lifts seem like the best choices to include in the teaching.

Okay, let's see. The question is asking about exercises to include in the teaching, so I'll want to choose an option that is specifically helpful for low back pain prevention. I'm leaning towards one of the lower-impact options like swimming or leg lifts.

Hmm, I'm not sure about this one. I know low back pain can be tricky, and the right exercises can really make a difference. I'll have to think carefully about which option would be best for this patient.

This seems like a straightforward question about back pain prevention. I'll focus on exercises that strengthen the core and improve posture, since those are often recommended for low back pain.

The nurse must be a comedian suggesting sit-ups or running for low back pain. D is the only option that doesn't involve causing more pain.

Leg lifts? More like leg torture. I'll take my chances with the pool party and go with D.
