A nurse is precepting a nursing student. The nurse explains to the nursing student how you would perform the graphesthesia test on a client. What is the correct way to perform this test?

A. This description relates more to a sensory discrimination test, not graphesthesia. B. This option does not accurately describe the graphesthesia test, which involves identifying shapes or numbers rather than just touch location. C. In the graphesthesia test, the client closes their eyes while the nurse uses a blunt object to write a number or shape in the client's palm, and the client must identify what was written. This assesses the ability to recognize letters or numbers drawn on the skin. D. This option describes a two-point discrimination test rather than graphesthesia, which focuses on identifying drawn shapes or numbers.
