A nurse is reviewing the medical record of a child who is scheduled to receive a varicella immunization. Which of the following findings in the client's record should the nurse recognize as a contraindication?

Observing the client during and after meals is crucial for monitoring their eating behaviors, identifying any signs of bingeing or purging, and assessing their overall progress in managing their eating disorder. By closely observing the client, the nurse can provide immediate support and intervention if necessary and help prevent or address any potentially harmful behaviors. Instructing the client about effective coping strategies is valuable in helping them develop healthier ways to manage stress and emotions. However, this instruction can be more effective once the nurse has observed the client's behaviors and identified specific areas where coping strategies are needed.

Suggesting that the client assist with meal planning can be a helpful step in empowering them to take ownership of their eating habits and make healthier choices. However, before involving the client in meal planning, it is important to first assess their current eating behaviors and address any immediate concerns or risks.

Referring the client to a support group for individuals with eating disorders is a beneficial step in providing ongoing support and community. However, this referral can be made once the nurse has established a baseline understanding of the client's behaviors and needs.

Systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) is an autoimmune disease that can affect the skin. Proper skin care is important for individuals with SLE to minimize potential flare-ups or exacerbation of skin symptoms. The recommended approach to skin care in SLE includes gentle cleansing and moisturizing.

"I will use an astringent on my face." Astringents are typically not recommended for individuals with SLE as they can be harsh on the skin and may cause irritation or dryness.

"I will cleanse my skin using an antibacterial soap." While it is important to keep the skin clean, using an antibacterial soap is not specifically required for individuals with SLE. Gentle,

Non-irritating cleansers without antibacterial properties are generally recommended.

"I will limit my time in the tanning bed to 15 minutes." Exposure to ultraviolet (UV) radiation, such as from tanning beds, can be particularly harmful to individuals with SLE. UV radiation can trigger or worsen skin manifestations and may lead to disease flares. Therefore, it is generally advised for individuals with SLE to avoid tanning beds altogether.

In addition to gentle cleansing and moisturizing, individuals with SLE should also practice sun protection, including wearing sunscreen with a high sun protection factor (SPF) and using protective clothing and accessories (such as hats and sunglasses) when exposed to the sun. Regular check-ups with a healthcare provider and following their recommendations are important for managing SLE and its associated skin manifestations.
