Final Answer :
D
Explanation :
This response acknowledges Ms.Barna's effort to gather information and suggests working together to review the websites she has visited. It also allows the nurse to ensure that Ms.Barna is getting accurate information and address any concerns or questions she may have. Option A is not specific to the situation and does not address the patient's concern. Option B is dismissive of the patient's efforts to learn and does not offer a solution. Option C is correct that the physician should be consulted, but it does not address the current situation and does not offer any guidance on how to proceed.
