A. Allergies
Allergies are important to know but are not part of the primary survey. The primary survey focuses on immediate life threats, such as airway, breathing, and circulation, rather than detailed background information.
B. Circulation
Assessment of circulation is critical in the primary survey to identify and manage life-threatening conditions such as shock or severe bleeding. It includes evaluating blood pressure, heart rate, and peripheral pulses to assess the effectiveness of the cardiovascular system.
C. Neurological status
While neurological status is important, it is part of a secondary survey rather than the primary survey. The primary survey focuses on immediate life-threatening conditions, while the neurological status is assessed more thoroughly in the secondary survey.
D. Ventilation
Assessing ventilation is a crucial part of the primary survey. This involves checking the client's breathing rate, depth, and effectiveness to ensure adequate oxygenation and addressing any immediate respiratory distress.
E. Current medications
Knowing current medications is important for overall care but is not part of the primary survey. The primary survey addresses life-threatening conditions rather than details of medication history.
F. Exposure
Exposure is part of the primary survey, ensuring that the client is completely exposed for a thorough assessment while protecting their privacy and warmth. It involves checking for hidden injuries and ensuring the client’s environment is safe.

A. A positive Western blot test confirms HIV infection but does not provide immediate information on the client's immune status.
B. Platelets within the normal range are important but do not directly indicate the client's immune status or HIV progression.
C. CD4-T-cell count is crucial for monitoring HIV progression and immune function. A low count indicates immunosuppression and increased risk of opportunistic infections.
D. WBC count is important but does not specifically indicate the client's HIV status or immune function related to HIV.
