Zorluk: OrtaStandard and Transmission-Based Precautions

Match each client's clinical presentation to the correct infection control precautions and room assignment requirement.

  • Client with suspected pulmonary tuberculosisAssign to an Airborne Infection Isolation Room (AIIR); staff must wear an N95 respirator.
  • Client diagnosed with Mycoplasma pneumoniaeAssign to a private room; staff must wear a surgical mask when within 3 feet of the client.
  • Client with vancomycin-resistant enterococci (VRE) in a urine cultureAssign to a private room; staff must don a gown and gloves upon entering the room.
  • Client with asymptomatic HIV and a closed radial fractureAssign to a standard room; staff use PPE only if exposure to blood or body fluids is anticipated.

Cevap

The correct matches align tuberculosis with Airborne Precautions (AIIR and N95), Mycoplasma pneumoniae with Droplet Precautions (private room and surgical mask), VRE with Contact Precautions (private room, gown, and gloves), and the closed fracture in an HIV-positive client with Standard Precautions.
Each client's clinical presentation dictates specific isolation requirements based on the pathogen's mode of transmission. Tuberculosis requires Airborne Precautions due to aerosolized droplet nuclei. Mycoplasma pneumoniae requires Droplet Precautions due to large respiratory droplets. VRE requires Contact Precautions to prevent transmission via direct contact. A closed fracture in a client with HIV requires only Standard Precautions, as there is no anticipated contact with blood or body fluids.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Identify the mode of transmission for pulmonary tuberculosis.
Tuberculosis is transmitted via the airborne route.
Determines the need for an Airborne Infection Isolation Room (AIIR) and an N95 respirator.
2
Identify the mode of transmission for Mycoplasma pneumoniae.
It is transmitted via large respiratory droplets.
Determines the need for Droplet Precautions, requiring a surgical mask when within 3 feet of the client.
3
Identify the mode of transmission for VRE in urine.
VRE is transmitted by direct or indirect contact.
Determines the need for Contact Precautions, requiring a gown and gloves upon entering the room.
4
Assess the transmission risk for a client with HIV and a closed fracture.
No active bleeding or body fluid exposure is present.
Standard Precautions are sufficient unless exposure to blood or body fluids is anticipated.
