Mr.Adamson is booked for a colonoscopy and requires a cleansing enema.What information does the nurse provide Mr.Adamson before administering the enema?

A) Hold the solution for a short time
B) Lie in the left lateral position
C) Lie in the right lateral position
D) Take quick breaths in through the nose

The left lateral position is the best position for administering an enema as it allows for the solution to flow more easily through the rectum and into the colon. This position also helps to minimize discomfort and cramping during the procedure. The nurse should instruct Mr.Adamson to remain in this position until he feels the urge to defecate. The other options (A, C, and D) are not relevant or may be unsafe for administering an enema.
