Andrew Davis is currently in Stage I of alcohol withdrawal. As he moves into Stage II (24 to 72 hours) and then into Stage III (after 72 hours), what behaviors should be assessed for and what safety measures should be initiated

Respuesta :

The correct answer to this open question is the following.

We are talking about the recovery process of Andrew of alcohol withdrawal.

So as he moves into different stages of his rehabilitation, his family should be prepared to expect different Andrew's reactions. He probably experiences some anxiety, sweating, headache, insomnia, tremor, nausea, and vomit, When he passes to stage number two and three, Andrew could experience some hallucinations. These could be auditive and visual. The family should not be alarmed but must be prepared for this reality for a while. It is probably than during this stage Andrew could have seizures too.

So the role of the family is of the utmost importance to always support Andrew's reactions through these stages.
