A nurse is assessing a client who has type 1 diabetes mellitus and was administered insulin lispro 1 hr ago.
Which of the following manifestations indicates that the client might be experiencing hypoglycemia?

Choice A rationale:

Recent myocardial infarction is not a contraindication for warfarin administration. Warfarin is often prescribed for patients with a history of myocardial infarction to prevent clot formation and reduce the risk of stroke.

Choice B rationale:

Recent eye surgery is a contraindication for the administration of warfarin. Warfarin can increase the risk of bleeding, which is particularly concerning after eye surgery due to the delicate nature of ocular tissues. Using anticoagulants in this scenario can lead to severe complications, including vision loss.

Choice C rationale:

Thrombophlebitis, inflammation of a vein with clot formation, is not a contraindication for warfarin administration. In fact, anticoagulants like warfarin are commonly prescribed to prevent the extension of clots and reduce the risk of complications associated with thrombophlebitis.

Choice D rationale:

Breast cancer is not a direct contraindication for warfarin administration. However, the decision to use anticoagulants in patients with a history of breast cancer should be made carefully, considering individual factors such as the stage of cancer, ongoing treatment, and overall risk of thromboembolic events.

Choice A rationale:

Instructing the client to abstain from sexual intercourse for one month is not necessary for the management of Chlamydia trachomatis. Instead, the client should be advised to abstain from sexual activity until they and their partner(s) have completed the prescribed course of antibiotics and are no longer contagious, which is usually within 7 days.

Choice B rationale:

Administering ceftriaxone via intermittent IV bolus is not the recommended route for treating Chlamydia trachomatis. The standard treatment for Chlamydia trachomatis infection is oral antibiotics, such as azithromycin or doxycycline. Intravenous administration is not typically required for uncomplicated cases.

Choice C rationale:

Scheduling the client for retesting in one week is not necessary if the client has received appropriate treatment and follows the prescribed course of antibiotics. Retesting is generally recommended 3 months after treatment, especially in cases of persistent or recurrent symptoms.

Choice D rationale:

Reporting the infection to the state department of health is a crucial action. Chlamydia trachomatis is a reportable sexually transmitted infection in many jurisdictions. Reporting helps public health authorities track the incidence of the disease, implement preventive measures, and allocate resources effectively to control its spread within the community. It is essential for the nurse to comply with legal and ethical obligations by reporting the infection to the appropriate health authorities.
