The nurse is teaching a patient about bariatric surgery and dumping syndrome. Which statement indicates that the patient understands dumping syndrome?

A. "I can expect the symptoms to begin 5 hours after eating." Dumping syndrome typically occurs within 15-30 minutes of eating. B. "I need to eat small frequent meals." Small, frequent meals reduce the risk of rapid gastric emptying, which is the cause of dumping syndrome. C. "I should drink lots of fluids with meals." Fluids with meals worsen symptoms by speeding gastric emptying. Patients should wait 30-60 minutes after eating to drink fluids. D. "I need to sit up for 5 hours after each meal." Sitting up helps digestion, but 5 hours is excessive and not needed.
