Answer: you should increase your fluid intake after this procedure

Step-by-step explanation:

You didn't give the options to the question. I got the options through further searches online and the best option was chosen.

Lumbar puncture is performed in the lower back of a person in the lumbar region such that a needle will be put between two lumbar bones in order to be able to remove a sample of the cerebrospinal fluid.

The cerebrospinal fluid is simply the fluid that helps in surrounding the brain

of a person from the spinal cord in order to protect them from injury. Since the nurse is reinforcing teaching with a client who scheduled for a lumbar puncture, the statements that the nurse

would make is that "you should increase your fluid intake after this procedure".
