A nurse is preparing to administer vancomycin 250 mg PO. The amount available is vancomycin 125 mg/ capsule. How many capsules should the nurse administer to the client with each dose? (Round to the nearest tenth. Use a leading zero if it applies. Do not use a trailing zero.)

A. Endogenous Infection: Endogenous infections originate from the client's own microbiota and typically do not involve medical interventions such as urinary catheterization.
B. Systemic Infection: Systemic infections affect the entire body and may not necessarily be related to the urinary tract.
C. Exogenous Infection: Exogenous infections originate from sources outside the client's body.
While the urinary tract infection could be caused by bacteria from the environment, it is more specifically categorized as a healthcare-associated infection (HAI) due to the indwelling urinary catheter being a risk factor.
D. Health Care-Associated Infection: A healthcare-associated infection (HAI) occurs as a result of healthcare interventions and can include infections related to urinary catheterization, surgery, or other medical procedures.

A. Skin lesions are seen as solid predictors of the general health state: While skin lesions can provide valuable information about a patient's health, they are not the only indicator. Changes in the skin can indicate various health conditions, not just lesions.
B. The patient's psychological health is best predicted by the skin: While changes in the skin can sometimes be associated with psychological health conditions, they are not the sole predictors. Psychological health is assessed through a comprehensive evaluation, including observation, interview, and assessment tools.
C. Detection of skin cancer is the only reason to assess the client's skin: While skin cancer detection is an important aspect of skin assessment, it is not the only reason. Skin assessment provides valuable information about overall health, hydration status, circulation, and potential systemic conditions.
D. The skin is a good communicator regarding the client's overall health: The skin can provide valuable clues about a patient's overall health status. Changes in skin color, texture, moisture, and integrity can indicate underlying health conditions, nutritional deficiencies, circulation problems, or systemic diseases. Therefore, focusing on any changes noted in the patient's skin is essential for comprehensive assessment and early detection of potential health issues.
