A nurse is assessing a 7-month-old infant who has Down syndrome. Which of the following developmental milestones should the nurse expect?

- Rationale for Choice A: Pulmonary hygiene is important for preventing pneumonia, especially in bedridden clients. However, it is not specific to the care of a client with leukemia unless they have a respiratory complication which necessitates such an intervention.
- Rationale for Choice B: Airborne precautions are typically used for clients who have infections that can be transmitted through the air, such as tuberculosis. Leukemia does not require airborne precautions unless the client has a coexisting airborne infection.
- Rationale for Choice C: Regular turning of the client can help prevent pressure ulcers and is a good practice for any bedridden patient. However, the use of powder is controversial as it can cake and lead to skin breakdown, and is not specifically indicated for leukemia care.
- Rationale for Choice D: Assessing the client's urine for odor and cloudiness is an important part of care for clients with leukemia. They are at increased risk for urinary tract infections due to immunosuppression, and changes in urine can indicate an infection that needs prompt treatment.

Choice A rationale:

Developing influenza after receiving the vaccine the previous year is not a contraindication for receiving the vaccine this year. In fact, the vaccine is recommended annually.

Choice B rationale:

Hypertension is not a contraindication for receiving the influenza vaccine.

Choice C rationale:

Clients with a history of Guillain-Barré syndrome should generally avoid receiving the influenza vaccine due to a potential increased risk of recurrence of the syndrome.

Choice D rationale:

Allergies to dairy products are not a contraindication for receiving the influenza vaccine.
