A nurse is taking a health history from a female client. The client asks to get the vaccine for human papillomavirus (HPV) to get rid of genital warts. Which of the following statements should be the nurse's best response?

"This vaccine is only for individuals who have not yet started to become sexually active."

"The vaccine cannot protect you if you already have HPV infection."

"The HPV vaccine is for individuals ages 9 to 26 years, so we can start that today."

Let's check with the physician to see if you are a candidate for the vaccine.

Answer and Explanation

The Correct Answer is B

A.   HPV vaccination is recommended for both sexually active and non-sexually active individuals for preventive purposes. This statement restricts the vaccine unnecessarily.
B.   This statement is correct. The HPV vaccine works best if administered before exposure to the virus, so it is not effective in treating existing HPV infections or genital warts.
C.   While true that the HPV vaccine is typically recommended for individuals within a certain age range, this statement doesn't address the client's specific query about getting rid of existing genital warts.
D.   Involving the physician in vaccine candidacy is a good step but doesn't directly address the client's query about HPV infection and genital warts.

C. Hearing is primarily assessed by Cranial Nerve VIII (Vestibulocochlear nerve).
D. Cranial Nerve XI innervates the sternocleidomastoid and trapezius muscles, enabling movements like head turning and shoulder shrugging against resistance.

A. Motor component of CN X and sensory component of CN VII B. Motor and sensory component of CN XI C. Motor component of CN IV D. Motor component of CN VII

Correct Answer is D

Explanation

A. Dysfunction of the motor component of CN X (vagus nerve) and sensory component of CN VII (facial nerve) would present with different symptoms, such as difficulty swallowing and impaired taste sensation, not the observed facial asymmetry and puffing of cheeks.
B. CN XI (accessory nerve) dysfunction primarily affects the sternocleidomastoid and trapezius muscles and wouldn't cause the observed facial asymmetry.
C. Dysfunction of CN IV (trochlear nerve) leads to issues with downward and inward eye movement, not the facial asymmetry described.
D. Dysfunction of the motor component of CN VII (facial nerve) leads to facial asymmetry during expressions and difficulty controlling facial muscles, which matches the observed findings.
