Aclient, who has undergone a percutaneous transluminal coronary angioplasty (ptca), has received discharge instructions. which statement by the client would indicate the need for further teaching by the nurse?

"I should expect a low-grade fever and swelling at the site for the next week."

Explanation:

Percutaneous transluminal coronary angioplasty is a surgical treatment for patients with coronary artery clogging. This procedure involves the installation of a balloon catheter that increases the flow of blood to the heart, with the objective of relieving the coronary arteries. The place where the balloon catheter was installed in the patient should not have swelling or bleeding after surgery, nor should the patient have fever. For this reason, the patient who says "I should expect a low-grade fever and swelling at the site for the next week" shows that he needs more teaching about surgery.
