A nurse is reinforcing teaching with an adolescent who has a prescription for an electroencephalogram (EEG).Which of the following instructions should the nurse include in the teaching?
Explanation & Rationale
Choice A reason: Fasting is not typically required for an EEG, so this instruction is not necessary.
