A nurse at a long-term care facility is caring for a client who has AIDS. The client accidentally spills the contents of their urinal on the floor.
After cleaning up the spill with soap and water, the nurse should apply a solution of water and which of the following disinfectants to the floor?

A bone scan that is scheduled for today. The nurse should include this information in the change-of-shift report because the oncoming nurse might have to modify the client’s care to accommodate leaving the unit.

Choice A is wrong because the client’s input and output for the shift are routine data that can be found in the client’s chart and do not need to be verbally reported.

Choice B is wrong because the client’s blood pressure from the previous day is not relevant to the current condition of the client and does not reflect any changes or interventions.

Choice D is wrong because the medication routine from the medication administration record is also routine data that can be accessed by the oncoming nurse and does not indicate any special needs or concerns.

BMI 32.2.

A high body mass index (BMI) is a major risk factor for type 2 diabetes mellitus, as it indicates overweight or obesity.

Overweight or obesity can cause insulin resistance, which means the body cells do not respond well to insulin and cannot take up glucose from the blood. This leads to high blood sugar levels and diabetes.

Choice A is wrong because history of exercise-induced asthma is not a risk factor for type 2 diabetes mellitus.

Asthma is a respiratory condition that causes inflammation and narrowing of the airways, but it does not affect the metabolism of glucose or insulin.

Choice B is wrong because age 35 years is not a risk factor for type 2 diabetes mellitus.

Although the risk of diabetes increases with age, especially after 45 years, it can also occur in younger people.

Age alone is not enough to cause diabetes.

Choice C is wrong because history of mumps is not a risk factor for type 2 diabetes mellitus.

Mumps is a viral infection that affects the salivary glands, but it does not damage the pancreas or impair insulin production.

Some other risk factors for type 2 diabetes mellitus are family history, race or ethnicity, physical inactivity, prediabetes, gestational diabetes, polycystic ovarian syndrome, and smoking.
