Correct Answer is A

Explanation

This is because fluticasone is an inhaled corticosteroid that suppresses the immune system and increases the risk of fungal infections in the mouth and throat. The nurse should instruct the client to rinse their mouth with water after each use of fluticasone and to report any signs of oral thrush, such as white patches, soreness, or difficulty swallowing. Polyuria, hypertension, and hypoglycemia are not associated with fluticasone.

A. WBC 5,000/mm3 B. Platelets 150,000/mm3 C. Positive Western blot test D. CD4-T-cell count 180 cells/mm3

Correct Answer is D

Explanation

CD4-T-cell count 180 cells/mm3 is the nurse's priority. Rationale: This is because a low CD4-T-cell count indicates a high risk of opportunistic infections and impaired immune function. The nurse should implement infection prevention measures and monitor the client for signs of infection. The other values are not as critical as the CD4-T-cell count.
