Rationale: The following discharge instructions are taught to the patient and caregiver after a laparoscopic cholecystectomy: First, remove the bandages on the puncture site the day after surgery and shower. Second, notify the surgeon if any of the following signs and symptoms occur: redness, swelling, bile-colored drainage or pus from any incision; and severe abdominal pain, nausea, vomiting, fever, or chills. Third, gradually resume normal activities. Fourth, return to work within 1 week of surgery. Fifth, resume a usual diet, but a low-fat diet is usually better tolerated for several weeks after surgery.

Which type of hepatitis is responsible for most patients with liver cancer?

People with hepatitis B and hepatitis C have the greatest risk of liver cancer. In the U.S., approximately 65 percent of liver cancer cases are related to hepatitis B or C, with nearly 50 percent attributable to hepatitis C alone. Some groups of Americans are at increased risk for chronic viral hepatitis infection.

Which type of hepatitis causes most cases of Enterically transmitted hepatitis worldwide?

Hepatitis E is an inflammation of the liver caused by infection with the hepatitis E virus (HEV). Every year there are an estimated 20 million HEV infections worldwide, leading to an estimated 3.3 million symptomatic cases of hepatitis E.

Which types of hepatitis develop into a chronic form of the disease Select all that apply?

In particular, types B and C lead to chronic disease in hundreds of millions of people and, together, are the most common cause of liver cirrhosis and cancer. Hepatitis A and E are typically caused by ingestion of contaminated food or water.

During which phase of hepatitis A does the patient reach peak infectivity?

Peak infectivity of infected persons occurs during the 2-week period before onset of jaundice or elevation of liver enzymes, when concentration of virus in stool is highest (16). Concentration of virus in stool declines after jaundice appears.
