Question

a client with bronchiectasis is admitted to the nursing unit. the primary focus of nursing care for this client includes implementing measures to clear pulmonary secretions. instructing the client on the signs of respiratory infection. teaching the family how to perform postural drainage. providing the client a low - calorie, high - fiber diet.

Explanation:

Bronchiectasis involves abnormal dilation of bronchi, leading to accumulation of pulmonary secretions. The primary nursing care focus is to clear these secretions to improve respiratory function. Instructing on infection signs is secondary prevention, teaching family postural drainage is a teaching aspect (not primary focus), and the diet option is irrelevant to the main respiratory issue of bronchiectasis. So the correct option is the one about implementing measures to clear pulmonary secretions.

Answer:

A. implementing measures to clear pulmonary secretions.
