Answer and Explanation

B. Varicella vaccine is usually given at 12-15 months of age. It is essential for preventing chickenpox but is not included in the 2-month immunization schedule.
C. Hepatitis A vaccine is recommended starting at 12 months of age. It is not part of the immunizations administered at 2 months.
D. Hepatitis B vaccine is part of the routine immunization schedule for infants and is given at birth, 1-2 months, and 6-18 months. At the 2-month visit, it is appropriate to administer the second dose of the Hepatitis B vaccine if it was not given at 1 month.

Explanation

  1. Clean the site using sterile gauze and sterile water.
    • Indicated: The turban dressing should be changed using sterile techniques to prevent infection and ensure proper wound care.
  2. Place client in a private room.
    • Not Indicated: The client is already on contact precautions for MRSA, so the private room is a general requirement and not a specific intervention for the dressing change.
  3. Avoid hand sanitizer after the procedure.
    • Not Indicated: Hand sanitizer is typically used before and after procedures. For MRSA contact precautions, hand hygiene is critical, and proper hand washing or using hand sanitizer is recommended after the procedure.
  4. Place the soiled dressing in a red biohazard bag.
    • Indicated: The soiled dressing is considered contaminated and should be disposed of in a red biohazard bag to prevent the spread of infection.
  5. Use sterile gloves to remove the old dressing.
    • Indicated: Sterile gloves are required for removing and replacing the dressing to maintain a sterile field and prevent infection.

Correct Answer is C

Explanation

A. Pallor is not directly related to low serum calcium levels. It may indicate anemia or other conditions, but it is not a primary concern for hypocalcemia.
B. Bruising is generally associated with clotting issues or trauma, not specifically with low serum calcium. Low calcium can affect clotting, but bruising is not a direct or primary symptom of hypocalcemia.
C. Tetany, which includes symptoms like muscle spasms, twitching, and numbness, is a key indicator of low serum calcium levels. Monitoring for tetany is essential in managing clients with malabsorption syndrome who have hypocalcemia.
D. Jaundice is a sign of liver dysfunction or hemolysis, not directly related to low calcium levels. Low serum calcium is not typically associated with jaundice.
