A nurse in a provider's office is collecting data from a client who has candidiasis.
Which of the following findings should the nurse expect?

Choice A rationale:

Enabling the airbag when the baby is in the front seat of the car is incorrect. Airbags can be dangerous for infants and young children, and it is recommended to keep them in the rear seat, preferably in a rear-facing car seat.

Choice B rationale:

Positioning the car seat's retainer clip at the level of the baby's belly button is incorrect. The retainer clip should be at armpit level to ensure proper positioning and safety.

Choice C rationale:

Keeping the baby rear-facing in the car seat until she is 2 years old is the correct understanding of car seat safety. This statement aligns with the American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP) recommendations, which suggest keeping infants rear-facing as long as possible, ideally until they reach the maximum height and weight limits of their car seat.

Choice D rationale:

Placing the baby in the car seat at a 90-degree angle is incorrect. The correct angle for a rear-facing car seat depends on the manufacturer's guidelines but typically ranges from 30 to 45 degrees. The 90-degree angle is not safe and can compromise the baby's airway.

Choice A rationale:

The nurse should not include the instruction to "Avoid breastfeeding for 3 days after receiving the vaccine." This is not a necessary precaution for the MMR vaccine. Breastfeeding can continue after the MMR vaccination without any adverse effects on the infant.

Choice B rationale:

The correct instruction is to "Avoid pregnancy for at least 28 days after receiving the vaccine." This is because the MMR vaccine is a live attenuated vaccine, and there is a theoretical risk of transmitting the virus to a developing fetus. Waiting for 28 days after vaccination allows the woman's immune system to respond to the vaccine and reduce any potential risk to the fetus. This is especially important during the postpartum period when a woman may be at risk of becoming pregnant again.

Choice C rationale:

The statement "If you are allergic to gluten, you should not receive this vaccine" is not accurate. The MMR vaccine does not contain gluten as an ingredient. Allergic reactions to the MMR vaccine are generally related to components of the vaccine itself, not gluten.

Choice D rationale:

The instruction to "Your partner should also receive the MMR vaccine" is not a standard recommendation for postpartum women. While it is essential for individuals to be up-to-date on their vaccinations, the focus in this scenario should be on the postpartum woman receiving the MMR vaccine to protect herself and any future pregnancies.
