A nurse is reinforcing teaching with a client who is postpartum about the measles, mumps, andrubella (MMR) vaccine.

Which of the following instructions should the nurse include in theteaching?

A.a. Heart rate (98/min): A heart rate of 98/min is within the normal range for adults (60-100 bpm). This does not indicate an immediate need for further evaluation based on the provided data.

B.Blood pressure (112/88 mmHg): The blood pressure reading is within normal limits. This does not suggest an immediate concern.

C. Temperature: The client reports a low-grade fever (38.1°C or 100.5°F), which suggests an ongoing infection or inflammatory process. Further evaluation is necessary.

D.Respiratory complaint: A productive cough with blood-tinged sputum, especially in combination with symptoms such as fatigue, night sweats, and weight loss, is concerning and warrants further evaluation for possible serious conditions such as tuberculosis (TB) or other respiratory infections.

e.Oxygen saturation (98% on room air):The oxygen saturation is normal. This finding does not indicate an immediate need for further evaluation.

F.Weight loss: The client reports a significant weight loss of 26 kg (5 lbs) over the past week. Unintentional weight loss can be a concerning symptom and may indicate an underlying medical condition that requires further investigation.

G.Sputum characteristics: Blood-tinged sputum, especially with other symptoms like cough, fever, and night sweats, can be indicative of serious conditions such as TB or other respiratory infections and needs further evaluation.

H.Travel history: Recent travel to a region where certain infectious diseases are prevalent (such as TB) is a critical factor that requires further evaluation in the context of the client's symptoms.

Budesonide is a corticosteroid inhaler used for long-term management of asthma. It helps to reduce inflammation and prevent asthma symptoms. Rinsing the mouth and gargling with water after using a corticosteroid inhaler can help reduce the risk of developing oral thrush, a fungal infection.

The other statements are incorrect and indicate a misunderstanding of the teaching: "I will take my inhaler treatment before each meal and at bedtime": Budesonide is not typically used before meals or at bedtime. It is usually taken on a regular schedule, as prescribed by the healthcare provider, to provide long-term control of asthma symptoms.

Using the inhaler before exercising is important because physical activity can trigger asthma symptoms in some individuals. By using the inhaler before exercise, the client can help prevent exercise-induced asthma symptoms. However, this depends on the degree of difficulty of the exercise.

"I should use my inhaler when I have an asthma attack": Budesonide is not a rescue inhaler for immediate relief of asthma symptoms during an asthma attack. It is a controller medication meant to be used regularly to prevent symptoms from occurring.
