How Can Nurses Educate Patients on Preventing Gastric Dysfunction?
Patient education is vital for preventing gastric dysfunction:
Encourage a balanced diet rich in fiber and low in irritants like caffeine and spicy foods. Advise on maintaining a healthy weight to reduce pressure on the stomach and esophagus. Suggest regular exercise to improve digestion and reduce stress levels. Educate on the importance of regular medical check-ups for early detection of potential issues.
