A nurse in an ambulatory surgery center is providing discharge teaching to a client who had a dilation and curettage (D&C) following a spontaneous miscarriage.Which of the following should be included in the teaching?

Choice A rationaleFollowing a dilation and curettage (D&C) for a spontaneous miscarriage, the uterus needs time to heal. Resuming vaginal intercourse after approximately 2 weeks allows for some initial healing of the uterine lining and helps reduce the risk of infection. Healthcare providers typically advise waiting until bleeding has significantly decreased and discomfort has subsided.Choice B rationaleWhile adequate nutrition is important for overall recovery after a miscarriage, there is no specific recommendation to increase the intake of zinc-rich foods in particular. A balanced diet supporting tissue repair is generally advised.Choice C rationaleAspirin is a salicylate and has antiplatelet properties. It is generally not recommended for managing cramps after a D&C due to the increased risk of bleeding. Acetaminophen or ibuprofen are typically preferred for pain relief.Choice D rationaleFollowing a D&C for a spontaneous miscarriage, the products of conception have been removed from the uterus. While some vaginal bleeding is expected as the uterus heals, it should not contain identifiable fetal or placental tissue. Persistent passage of such tissue could indicate an incomplete evacuation or other complications requiring medical attention. .
