A nurse is caring for a client with vulvovaginitis caused by Candida albicans. Which intervention should the nurse include in the client's care plan?

Choice A rationale:

Education empowers the patient to prevent recurrence by understanding the causes and symptoms of foreign body-related vulvovaginitis, contributing to long-term management.

Choice B rationale:

Administering specific treatments like antivirals, antiparasitics, or antibiotics addresses the acute phase but does not focus on preventing future occurrences or patient education.

Choice C rationale:

Encouraging good hygiene and cotton underwear is essential, but it is more reactive than providing education for long-term prevention.

Choice D rationale:

Monitoring for complications is important, but the nurse should prioritize patient education to promote proactive management and prevention.

Ebola.

Choice A rationale:

Anaerobic bacteria typically cause a foul-smelling discharge, which doesn't match the described symptoms.

Choice B rationale:

Fungal infections result in a thick, white, cottage cheese-like discharge, different from the green-yellow frothy discharge mentioned.

Choice C rationale:

Protozoa, specifically Trichomonas vaginalis, cause green-yellow frothy discharge with a foul odor, closely resembling the client's symptoms.

Choice D rationale:

Low estrogen levels would not cause this specific presentation; they're more associated with vaginal dryness and thinning of vaginal walls.
