单选题
The nurse is caring for a client in an acute manic state. What's the most effective nursing action for this client? A. Assigning him to group activities. B. Reducing his stimulation. C. Assisting him with self-care. D. Helping him express his feelings.
【正确答案】
B
【答案解析】Reducing stimuli helps to reduce hyperactivity during a manic state. Group activities would provide too much stimulation. Trying to assist the client with self-care could cause increased agitation. When in a manic state, these clients can't express their inner feelings in a productive, introspective manner. The focus of treatment for a client in the manic state is behavior control.
