A nurse is assessing a client who is receiving a dose of IV amphotericin B. Which of the following findings should indicate to the nurse that the client is experiencing an acute infusion reaction?

A. The client's liver function test results are within the expected reference range: While monitoring liver function tests is essential for clients taking isoniazid and rifampin due to
potential hepatotoxicity, normal liver function test results do not necessarily indicate adherence to the medication regimen. Adherence is best assessed by the client's response to treatment, such as improvement in symptoms and resolution of the infection.
B. The client has a positive purified protein derivative test: A positive purified protein derivative (PPD) test indicates exposure to Mycobacterium tuberculosis but does not provide information about the client's adherence to the medication regimen for tuberculosis treatment. Adherence to treatment is determined by factors such as medication compliance and therapeutic response.
C. The client tests negative for HIV: The client's HIV status is not directly related to adherence to the tuberculosis medication regimen. While co-infection with HIV can impact the management of tuberculosis, testing negative for HIV does not confirm adherence to tuberculosis treatment.
D. The client has a negative sputum culture: A negative sputum culture indicates the absence of viable Mycobacterium tuberculosis organisms in the sputum sample and suggests effective
treatment and adherence to the medication regimen. Monitoring sputum culture conversion is a key indicator of treatment success in tuberculosis therapy.

A. Leg tenderness: Leg tenderness can be a sign of deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a rare but serious complication associated with oral contraceptives. Therefore, the nurse should report this finding immediately for further evaluation and management to prevent complications such as pulmonary embolism.

B. Cramps: Mild cramps are a common side effect of oral contraceptives and do not typically require immediate reporting unless they are severe or persistent.
C. Nausea: Nausea is a common side effect of oral contraceptives, especially during the initial weeks of use. It usually improves over time and does not typically require immediate reporting unless it is severe or persistent.
D. Abdominal bloating: Abdominal bloating is a common side effect of oral contraceptives and is usually mild and self-limiting. It does not typically require immediate reporting unless it is severe or persistent.
