Explanation:

Bleach is an effective disinfectant for blood spills and is recommended by healthcare guidelines for its ability to kill a broad range of microorganisms, including bloodborne pathogens such as human immunodeficiency virus (HIV). To prepare a bleach solution, the nurse can mix 1-part bleach with 10 parts water. This diluted bleach solution can be used to clean and disinfect the overbed table surfaces that have been contaminated with blood.

A- Chlorhexidine is an antiseptic commonly used for skin preparation before invasive procedures, but it is not the ideal choice for disinfecting surfaces or objects after a blood spill.

B- Isopropyl alcohol is effective for disinfecting small surfaces, but it may not be as effective as bleach for blood spills, particularly in the context of bloodborne pathogens like HIV.

D- Hydrogen peroxide can be used as a disinfectant, but it may not be as effective as bleach in eliminating bloodborne pathogens from surfaces.

The presence of edema and coolness around the catheter's insertion site suggests that infiltration may have occurred. Infiltration refers to the unintended leakage of fluid into the surrounding tissues instead of flowing into the vein. It can lead to tissue damage and compromised circulation. Stopping the infusion is the initial priority to prevent further infiltration and minimize potential harm to the client.

Applying a warm compress may be appropriate to promote comfort and circulation in some cases, but it should be done after stopping the infusion and assessing the severity of the infiltration.

Documenting the infiltration is necessary for accurate record-keeping and to communicate the occurrence to the healthcare team. However, it is not the first immediate action required in this situation.

Elevating the arm can help reduce swelling and promote venous return. It can be done after stopping the infusion, but it is not the first action to address the potential infiltration.
