A nurse is assessing a client two weeks postpartum. Which of the following statements by the client indicates a need for further evaluation?

A. Recommend frequent hot baths: Hot baths can exacerbate symptoms in clients with multiple sclerosis by increasing fatigue and worsening muscle weakness due to a rise in core body temperature. Clients are usually advised to avoid overheating and use cooling strategies instead to manage their symptoms.

B. Encourage the client to restrict performing range-of-motion exercises: Range-of-motion exercises are important in maintaining joint flexibility, muscle strength, and overall mobility. Restricting these exercises could lead to increased stiffness, weakness, and decreased functional ability in clients with multiple sclerosis.

C. Monitor the client's ability to perform ADLs: Monitoring the client's ability to perform activities of daily living is essential because multiple sclerosis often leads to progressive physical limitations. Regular assessment helps in planning appropriate interventions, promoting independence, and adjusting care as the disease progresses.

D. Initiate contact precautions: Contact precautions are not necessary for clients with multiple sclerosis because it is not an infectious disease. Multiple sclerosis is an autoimmune, neurodegenerative condition that requires supportive care rather than infection control measures.

A. Reviewing the results of the client's chlamydia screening with their parents, without the client's consent: Sexual health information, including STI screenings, is protected by confidentiality laws even for minors in many regions. Disclosing such sensitive information without the client's consent breaches confidentiality and can undermine trust between the adolescent and healthcare providers.

B. Reviewing the results of the client's celiac screening with their parents, without the client's consent: Celiac screening relates to general medical conditions and nutritional health, which are typically shared with parents of minors unless otherwise restricted. This does not generally breach confidentiality because it is not considered sensitive under adolescent health privacy laws.

C. Reviewing the results of the client's complete blood count (CBC) with their parents, without the client's consent: A CBC is a routine diagnostic test that checks general health indicators such as anemia or infection. Discussing these results with parents, especially for minors, is standard practice and does not usually violate confidentiality.

D. Reviewing the results of the client's urinalysis with their parents, without the client's consent: Urinalysis results typically assess general health or identify infections, which are standard to share with parents in the care of minors. This action would not be considered as a breach of confidentiality unless it revealed sensitive information like substance use without consent.
