a nurse is collecting data from a client who has an onset of severe back pain of unknown origin. which of the following questions should the nurse ask to encourage discussion with the client?
\does the medication youre taking relieve the pain?\
\can you point to where the pain is the worst?\
\what do you think caused the onset of your pain?\
\changing positions makes your pain worse, right?\

Explanation:

Open - ended questions encourage more discussion. "What do you think caused the onset of your pain?" is an open - ended question that allows the client to express their thoughts and might provide valuable information. The other options are mostly closed - ended (yes/no) or leading questions which limit the client's response.

Answer:

"What do you think caused the onset of your pain?"
