A nurse is collecting data from a client who has left sided heart failure. For which of the following findings should the nurse notify the provider?

This statement demonstrates an understanding of the concept of spacing out immunizations to reduce the number of shots given during a single visit. By making multiple office visits, the parent can ensure that their child receives the recommended immunizations while minimizing the number of injections at each visit.

Lactose intolerance is not a contraindication to receiving immunizations. Most vaccines do not contain lactose, and even if they do, the amount present is typically minimal and not expected to cause an adverse reaction in individuals with lactose intolerance.

The first flu immunization is typically recommended for children starting at 6 months of age, not at 6 years of age.

The human papillomavirus (HPV) vaccine is typically recommended for preteens and adolescents, usually starting between the ages of 11 and 12. It is not typically administered when a child enters kindergarten.

The correct answer is: a. Clean the stoma using an inward to outward circular motion.

Title: Choice A reason: Cleaning the stoma with an inward to outward circular motion is a recommended practice to prevent infection and ensure that any debris or secretions are cleared away from the tracheostomy site. This method helps to minimize the risk of introducing pathogens directly into the stoma and is considered a best practice in tracheostomy care.

Title: Choice B reason: Cleansing the inner cannula with isopropyl alcohol is not recommended because it can cause irritation to the tracheal mucosa. Instead, sterile saline is typically used for cleaning the inner cannula to avoid any potential damage to the tracheal tissues and to maintain a safe and comfortable environment for the patient.

Title: Choice C reason: Ensuring at least three finger widths of space under tracheostomy ties is not the standard practice. The recommended space is to allow one to two finger widths under the tracheostomy ties to ensure they are secure but not too tight, which could lead to skin breakdown or discomfort for the patient.

Title: Choice D reason: Preparing sterile supplies should be done before removing the inner cannula, not after. This is to ensure that all necessary supplies are ready to use immediately after the inner cannula is removed, minimizing the time the stoma is open and reducing the risk of infection.
