A nurse is providing preop teaching the night before a patient's surgery. The patient expresses ...

A nurse is providing preop teaching the night before a patient's surgery. The patient expresses fear of nausea and vomiting postoperatively from the anesthesia, because he had a bad experience a few years ago.

The nurse's best response to the patient would be which of the following statements?
a. I understand your concerns and fears. I hope your surgeon discussed that problem with you.
b. Try not to worry. You will be heavily sedated if that occurs, and you will not remember the feelings.
c. Nausea and vomiting occur much less frequently now, since we use a more balanced approach to anesthesia.
d. Let both the surgeon and the anesthesiologist know about your fears of this side effect.
