The patient is more cooperative if they?

  1. Are given medication

  2. Understand the procedure to be done

  3. Are restrained

  4. Are ignored

The correct answer is: Understand the procedure to be done

The answer "B" is correct because understanding the procedure alleviates the patient's anxiety and allows them to feel more in control. Option "A" is incorrect because medication may have side effects that can make the patient less cooperative. Option "C" is incorrect because restraining a patient can cause them to feel more anxious and potentially escalate their level of non-cooperation. Option "D" is incorrect because ignoring the patient may cause them to feel neglected and unimportant, leading to further non-cooperation.
