Question #: 124
Topic #: 13
A client who is experiencing infertility says to the nurse, “I feel I will be incomplete as a man/woman if I cannot have a child.” Which of the following nursing diagnoses is likely to be appropriate for this client?
Of the nursing diagnoses listed, the client’s statement most represents Body Image Disturbance because it
directly refers to loss of the function of having a child. Nothing in the statement indicates that the client is at
risk for harming herself. Ineffective Role Performance could be correct but is not the best choice because the
statement does not reflect a disruption of the parent’s role. Powerlessness could be an appropriate nursing
diagnosis if the client described feeling powerless about the infertility.Health Promotion and Maintenance
