Answer 1

Option C, 'Odds are that I will die from this procedure,' is the statement that indicates a need for additional teaching in a patient undergoing a bonemarrow biopsy.

Step-by-step explanation:

A statement by a patient undergoing a bonemarrow biopsy that indicates a need for additional teaching is option C, 'Odds are that I will die from this procedure.' This statement is incorrect because the bonemarrow biopsy procedure is generally considered safe and is not expected to lead to death. It is important to provide accurate information and reassurance to the patient about the safety and purpose of the procedure.
