A nurse is teaching a client who plans to begin following vegan dietary guidelines. Which of the following information should the nurse include?

A. Since the sputum culture is positive for M. tuberculosis, contact precautions are necessary to prevent the spread of the infection to others. These precautions include wearing gloves and a gown when in contact with the client or their environment.
B. Ethambutol is one of the first-line medications used in the treatment of tuberculosis (TB). It works by inhibiting the growth of TB bacteria, thereby helping to eliminate the infection.
C. A monthly TB skin test is not a standard part of treatment for a patient with active TB and is therefore contraindicated.
D. Isoniazid is another first-line medication used in the treatment of TB. It works by killing the TB bacteria and is often used in combination with other medications to treat active TB infection.
E. Since the sputum culture is positive for M. tuberculosis, airborne precautions are necessary to prevent the transmission of TB via airborne droplets. These precautions include wearing an N95 respirator mask and placing the client in a negative-pressure isolation room.
F. Pyrazinamide is part of the standard multidrug regimen used to treat TB. It works by killing the TB bacteria in different stages of their life cycle, helping to eradicate the infection more effectively.
G. Rifampin is another essential medication used in the treatment of TB. It works by inhibiting the synthesis of bacterial RNA, thereby killing the TB bacteria. Rifampin is usually given in combination with other TB medications to prevent drug resistance.

A. While documentation of sensitive material may be a responsibility of the charge nurse, it does not directly relate to educating a newly licensed nurse about the facility's computerized documentation system.
B. Securing client information through measures like installing a firewall is crucial in a computerized documentation system to maintain confidentiality and prevent unauthorized access or data breaches.
C. While password change frequency is an important aspect of maintaining system security, it is not the most critical information to convey to a newly licensed nurse regarding the documentation system.Most facilities require more frequent password changes to enhance security, such as every 60 to 90 days, to mitigate the risk of unauthorized access and potential breaches.
D. Providing access to all client records would violate privacy and security protocols and is not an accurate representation of how the documentation system operates.
