Correct Answer is C

Explanation

A. Isolation gown: Isolation gowns are used as part of contact precautions or airborne precautions for specific infectious diseases that require additional transmission-based precautions beyond standard precautions. However, standard precautions are generally sufficient for caring for clients with HIV receiving antiretroviral therapy.

B. Contact isolation: Contact isolation is used for patients with known or suspected infections that can be transmitted by direct or indirect contact with the patient or their environment. HIV does not require contact isolation unless there are additional infections or conditions present that warrant contact precautions.
C. Standard precautions: Standard precautions are the basic infection prevention practices that apply to all patient care, regardless of the suspected or confirmed infection status of the patient. This includes practices such as hand hygiene, the use of personal protective equipment (e.g., gloves, gown, mask, eye protection) when indicated, and safe injection practices. Standard precautions should be used for all patients, including those with HIV, to prevent the transmission of infectious agents.
D. Respiratory isolation: Respiratory isolation is used for patients with known or suspected respiratory infections that are transmitted through respiratory droplets. HIV is not transmitted through respiratory droplets and does not require respiratory isolation.

A. 18% B. 44% C. 36% D. 54%

Correct Answer is D

Explanation

A. 18% is inaccurate

B. 44% is inaccurate

C. 36% is inaccurate

D. According to the Rule of Nines:

Each arm is typically assigned 9% (4.5% for each arm). The chest and abdomen together are assigned 18%.

The upper back is assigned 9%.

The lower back is assigned 9%.

Each leg is typically assigned 18% (9% for each leg). Adding these percentages together for the described burns:

9% (each arm) + 18% (chest and abdomen) + 9% (upper back) + 9% (lower back) = 54%
