Answer 1

Answer: D. "I moved my computer to the bedroom so I could work before I go to sleep." ✅

Step-by-step explanation:

This statement made by the patient indicates a need for further teaching on sleep hygiene. Having electronic devices such as computers, TVs, or smartphones in the bedroom, can negatively affect sleep quality. This is because the blue light emitted by these devices can disrupt the body's production of melatonin, a hormone that regulates sleep. Therefore, it is recommended to not have electronic devices in the bedroom and to avoid using them before bedtime to improve the quality of sleep. ✅
